    What's the latest Atari related thing(s) you've bought on ebay?

    I got this, not on eBay - the seller sold this also there - : it's the Ultra Saint , a cheaper version of the UltraSatan. It cost me just about 50 bucks with s&h. Maybe it's a little rough, but works like a charm 🙂

    Wops... made a mistake... not 8 bit related 😛

     

    Last thing 8 bit is an Atari 130xe sold as not working, beaten up and dirty. Just 30 bucks, with mt rams and a defective power switch. Now is back to life, repaired the power switch and removed all the non-working ram. Just need to replace the key, yet.

    Well, I really don’t know… hope Atari did this trying to “bring back” some of the heritage that the Fuji logo implies - even if we all know actual Atari have nothing in common with the real one -. But , as someone has already wrote, it’s a Company, not a charity organization, and have to make money. We’ll see… anyway, best of luck to Al 👍🙂
     

    I usually don’t like things like 2600+ and other modern “emu-replicas”*, but in this case seems that will not be expensive, and is somewhat official; that’s a good thing. 
     

     

    * need to clarify: I prefer real hardware, and love that now we have the chance to get new replica-motherboards to repair our old computers, and/or new chips -I.e. Hokey or new CIAs for the Commodore 64s -.

    First of all, I say a big hello to everyone remember me :D It's a long time that I don't post nothing.... 

    After a while, I went back to see some games on eBay, to start again my Jag collection, and I didn't expect that prices of carts now is... $$$$$$$$ 

    Sure, I was looking for things that is under the "rare" tag like Atari Karts, but... 320 bucks ? ? Wow! 

    Anyway, I noticed also that there's a lot of new games available for the Jag now, and it's very nice to see that is still a great community :)

     

    Well, back to look for something to buy....

    Hello,

     

    i think the device on this picture i have stored on my harddisc (Sorry, can't say from which website it is) shows something fitting slightly better to the "micro" attribute, don't you think?

     

    Regards

    Matthias

     

    Damn, that is cool as all get out! I have never seen that model of the Microbox before. I guess Sony copied Atari after all huh?

     

    :D

    Very curios, indeed...

    how many people have?

    Haha.. you know it's funny you should mention Hero 2000....

    A few months ago I was working on some -mock up- screens for Jag games... nothing special...but here's one I came up with :P

     

    Wow, it's cool :D If only someone at Atari look back at the past and think about it...

     

    Well, back to reality :)

    I  have it for my Flash.... pretty cool! I loaded it up yesterday to give

    it a few rounds of play actually.

     

    In some strange way, it reminds me of Hero because you can save a guy on the first level (or is it the 2nd level?) anyways... :)

    :P

     

    Hero?? Another wonderful game, that I'd loved to see in a new version for the Jaguar. You know, H.E.R.O. 2000, or H.E.R.O. 3D... :D

    Mendon, I need to borrow a digital cam, so I could make a photo of the Defender box. Meanwhile, I'm working to 'complete' the back of BSUJ box, adding some texts (if you remember, there wasn't any text in the box I did). I found a pic of the Genesis version, but it's too small, so I can't read nothing but the title...

     

    ...Goin' back to surf the net and find something readable :)

    Thanks to everyone who posted; much appreciated!

     

    Based on your comments I think I'll go ahead and order Spacewar 2k when I order Barkley. Sounds like it is more than just a collectable cart and something worth fooling around with.

     

    Now, all I have to do is convince Tony to make me a box for Barkley  :D  

     

    Mendon

     

    :D

     

    Maybe, I could made a .pdf file of the box and put it online, or, buy the color cartridge for my printer, then make and send it to you :) . I work a little, and finally found a good cardboard to print and fold, instead of use adesive paper. I did it for Defender 2k box, and it's almost perfect.

    phase zero?

    I wish I had the source -- the Hyper Image guys have promised to make it available to me if they are able to locate it, but it's been well over a year and nothing to report yet...

     

    So, you can keep hoping, but don't expect anything in the next few months.  :roll:

     

    Then, fingers crossed... :)
