I really don't like the controllers of the newer consoles, TBH. The newest console I have in an N-64, and while I have the Namco Museum for it, I don't like how the controllers work for that cart. As for modding the Super Pac-Man stick, I still haven't gotten around to it, but the reason is because I'd like the ease of moving from one direction to another, rather than moving it from, say, up to nuetral to left. Or another similar combination. It seems to stick(especially when you are Super Pac-Man in high-speed mode) when making those 90 degree turns. While it's true you don't move diagonally, it's nice to be able to smoothly move the stick from one direction to another like you could in the arcade.

I have a few rarities that could be considered "valuable"... Swordquest: Waterworld, Crazy Climber, and a sealed Ms. Pac-Man for the 7800. Mostly, I collect games that I enjoy playing.

What's with all the hostility? I keep mine(the whole Atari set-up... includes 2600, 5200, 7800, TV, DVD player, C= 128 and it's accessories) plugged into a power strip. I'm not really worried about a lightning hit, since storms that intense don't hit here that often. If it gets nasty, my grandmother knows what to unplug for me. And trust me, if I'm not home, she is.

That also wasn't "The original movie poster", as the seller proclaims. I really hate liars.

Gimme that address.... I'll go use a sledge-hammer on the asshole trying to use one on an arcade cab!

No clue if they use the same ROM images.... which is why I suggested having a separate HSC for those. Plus, there isn't a very large library of games available for them. Except for April and May, I could moderate a section for the PnP HSC.

That's funny, I've had problems with all of my sticks EXCEPT the Ms. Pac-Man stick(I have the gamekey version). In fact, it's really the only one I can play anymore. The Super Pac-Man stick needs some serious maintenance... and so does my gen1 Pac-Man stick. I'm glad I bought the game key version, as it has most of the other games except ones on the Super Pac-Man stick. I'll have to work on that one, though..... because I like the games on it. I'm also going to alter it(if possible) to an 8-way, rather than 4-way. I'm hoping that will be easy.

lol. I was watching the same game when I saw this commercial for the first time. Ohhhh yeah. The feeling of getting the best gift ever for Christmas, especially an Atari 2600. Never got the Atari for Christmas *sniff* but I dreamed of it many times. I didn't notice the 6 to 4 switch change-up. My thoughts were "Wow, they got a heavy sixer for the commercial. Someone knows their stuff!" But then he was playing Centipede, so then I thought, "No way, Centipede wasn't released yet." I frankly choose to believe that man in the commercial realized/or-will-realize that ultimately the Atari was the best gift. Wait.... that was a HEAVY sixer?! Didn't look like one when I saw it.... can we get a photo to prove that?

Any chance we could also get one for Plug-N-Play games? Seriously, I'd love to see both, even though I can't participate in the MAME one.

This game is easily my favorite of all 7800 games I have. Beef Drop is right behind it, with DK jr coming in a close 3rd. I love Food Fight, and I will have to try this out. Thanks!

Shame someone took such bad care of that game. Best thing I can suggest, is to give it a really good cleaning. Check to make sure that all chips are seated properly, and secure any loose wiring. Wish I could find one of those.... I love that game. Good luck with it!

I dunno about you, but it sounds like it'd be safer down at the Biker bar.

I said the same thing about 3 years ago.

"Ficking stuch Sheisse", I believe. (the u in stuch should have an umlout(pair of dots) above it).

My WHAT?!

Even without demanding payment for it, I required DC. More to protect myself than the buyer. It might chip a couple of $$ from your price, but it's worth it. You know, with every passing day, I am less and less inclined to use EPay. Which isn't good, because I am now looking to unload a bunch of stuff.... and that can/should get the most exposure.

Ok... to throw some perspective into all this: I love my 2600, and I always will. Timeline wise, my next system was my Commodore64... although I did have a Telstar Ranger back then somewhere. I still play my 2600 games, and I will continue to update my collection as I find games that are fun to play. Some of which I have recently aquired. With the C=64, I have MANY games from back then that I still appreciate. The same goes with my first Amiga500(back in 1990). I bought an NES for Gauntlet, which I found rediculously disapointing. I got Gauntlet II for the Amiga, and it pleased me immensely. I had lots of kick ass games for the Amiga, many of which I played on my 3000. They played better because of the updated processing power. After that, I got into PC games, because of the capability to have multiplayers online. The N64 was a nice console, and provided me with some entertainment, but not the same as a PC. Once I got into the PC scene, Half Life, Team Fortress Classic, and games based on that engine, combined with those on the Command and Conquer engine, were my favorited. I still play modern 1st person shoot'em ups..... but I will equally play Circus Atari. Why? Because of the FUN factor! I have a collection of PnP's, because they are FUN! No matter what, FUN is what gaming is all about.

This is the power supply I bought. Couldn't find it at WalMart.com, but it was about the same price in store as this ad online. Powerline

I saved all of my original boxes from back in the day, but I have no idea what has become of them. I do have some that I've picked up more recently.... but I don't HAVE to have them.

Oh, silly me... I forgot that when I list items that are located in the US, which I intend to sell to US customers, I should list them on foreign EBays.

I would hope not. It's 2008. You don't push around people online who you have previously left alone when you're trying to rebound. The last thing they need is bad press just as they're turning the corner. By the way, if they do shut it down, I would like to remind all homebrew developers for the 7800 that I can be reached by PM, and that my email is listed. I certainly wouldn't stop buying homebrews if they shut the AA store down, but I would stop buying products from Atari. ^^^ THIS! I will also support the Homebrew makers as much as I can. I'm not hard to find either. Someone let loose if they even THINK about shutting this site down!

I'm going to say it would PROBABLY work, and I really don't see how it could possibly damage your system or your tv(just make sure both are turned off when you plug it in). At any rate, it can't hurt to try it. Now, a power supply with the wrong settings.... THAT could damage your system. Video cable..... no. I don't see it. Well, not unless you tied it around the VCS and used it to swing the thing around over your head like a cowboy with a lasso, and then let it go. THAT might damage it...

Graphics and gameplay. My favorite homebrew is Beef Drop(I lucked out and got the Pokey version used)... the graphics are SAWEET, and the gameplay is even better. The sounds are spot on, and really finish the game off.

Yeah.... look at some of the problems with that one..... Item is located in Phoenix AZ..... with shipping TO the US? Also, what was that C$ thing up there? Doesn't that usually mean Canadian $?

Yeah, or you can get a 1300mA one from WalMart, like I did... and just set the switch to 9v. As for the cable..... it's a standard RCA cable... Ok..... do this. There are just a few screws holding the thing together. Remove them, and put them somewhere safe. BTW- Is this a 6 switch, 4 switch, or what? Anyway... remove the case, and you should see a large hunk of metal screwed into the bottom part of the case. This is an RF shield. You should see some screws holding it on... it's safe to remove them, as you can't have the thing plugged in without a power supply. Look for where the cable comes in at, and follow it to where it plugs in. It should come out fairly easily with a little twisting. Once you have it out, you can take that wire with you, and find a wire with that exact connector on both ends. Reverse the steps you used to take it apart. If you have any reservations about taking things apart.... take some pics and post them so we can advise you.
