Just get a 7800 and a Harmony cart. then you can play all 2600 and 7800.

bought some more 2600 games from phattyboombatty. wouldn't hesitate to deal with him again!

Then their gripe should be aimed at the game journalists. I can't even look at modern gaming news sites anymore, a lot of the time they just feed you too much information about the game. an example right now is Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3....it's EVERYWHERE and takes up 95% of the articles on G4's the Feed. I prefer getting Magazines where I can read an article while taking a dump and then Google(after washing my hands of course) any interesting ones to see further if it's worthwhile or not, I don't like getting caught up in any hype.

Here's my 7800 serial A1 76 5782808 Has expansion Interface

Got my Harmony cart in today! this thing is awesome! Thank you for putting in the effort to get this project going and for the continued support!

awesome!, looks like it could use a clean up but that's an easy fix.

I see 4 wico controllers in the pic.

In the terrabytes and terrabytes of rar files I've downloaded since the PSX days.. even today in the 9 - 36 gig xbox 360 games, to ps3 games to bluray rips, I can't say I've ever seen any that have done that. Where are you getting those from? Next time you see one post it here.. I'd like to see the stupidity of it. I couldn't tell you where I got them, Once it was a movie and I should've checked the file structure first (I always check this first). the other times it was part of a Dreamcast set of .CDI files, I had to search some unusual sites in order to find some of the euro/jap releases. and yes, It was stupid!

isn't there some kind of batching function?? Or decompress all folders into one folder like extract here..? I use winrar exclusively and love it. not sure about winrar having that function, I use 7zip myself, but most likely it's laziness on the the part of the up-loader for not organizing it better, probably just how the compression software they used set it up. folders inside folders inside folders really don't have a purpose unless it's separating content. anyways, doesn't happen often.

forgot to update this. I got my refund from Mike. The more I think of it, the more I think this is a class act thing to do. I mean he really didn't need to do go out of his way to do this and could just as easily ignored everything.

Passwords are definitely a nuisance, but usually can be fixed with a search where you downloaded it from or the website it originated from. I never download from a site that doesn't have a comment field, because I like to comment on what the password is/get the password/ask for the password. What I hate the most, is the split .rar files that open in about 25-50 separate folders which each have a part file that needs to be all in the same folder in order to correctly decompress it. Usually this happens with much larger games or movies, but the tedious task of moving files one at a time really flips my lid

Bought several loose 2600 games from Shining Slade, wouldn't hesitate to do so again! A+

not that I know of, I'm sure Al will get back to us by going through the thread or something.

Sent you a PM last night.

I was wondering the same thing. maybe his message box is full or something?

Here's my spreadsheet on Google Docs 2600 Spreadsheet

I use Openoffice spreadsheet, I generally dislike programs because IMO it's full of useless information, I don't care about bar-codes, description, genre, developer, publisher, how many tonnes of plastic used to make the game, rating, etc. Also, I like seeing the games I DON'T have which most collectors programs only track what you have. My Spreadsheet for all games has only 5-6 columns. with make shift boxes that I add an x into if I have it. C (Cartridge) | I (Instructions) | B (Box) | O (Overlay if Applicable) | Title | Rarity I find it much easier to find a game and edit it, plus I can color code games that I've paid for but haven't received yet, insert comments without adding a new column, and easily add a game variation. I also use RFGeneration database but it isn't ever 100% accurate since it has many titles/variations missing.

I've been finding a lot of places are using the internet (especially Ebay) for pricing everything. Recently a Value Village opened near me so I went to check it out and found a stack of games all prices differently(SMB NES for $1 but Zelda for $17, same went for the Vinyl they had. Found FFVIII at a Goodwill but had a tags for $35. both stores I told cashiers "If I wanted Ebay prices, I'd rather just go to Ebay!" I find it really irritating that so many places refer to Ebay as a pricing guide.

bought a few loose 2600 games, fast shipping and quick communication.

Kind of a shot in the Dark here, but what the heck. I got a Ms Pac-Man and Berzerk board game awhile back, both are missing a few pieces and was kinda hoping someone had a few extra's? I also have a few extra pieces for the Berzerk game if anyone wants/needs them. Pieces I Need Ms Pac-Man -Pac Pellets (x6) -Red Ghost Pawn (x1) -Special Die (x1) Berzerk -Humanoid Character Pawn with Gun (x1) -Red Die and White Die Extra Pieces I Have Berzerk -Evil Otto Pawn(x1) -Robot Pawn (x4) -Berzerk Game Board
