  1. Well I don't know about you guys but I just started looking at flea markets and thrift stores, and so far I have come up with sh . The only place that had any atari 2600 games, had games that are easy to find but no rare ones.


  2. Well it's over now and we will have to wait to see who won. Because of the limited time I only put out two labels, but I know if I had at least one more week, I could have come up with better one's. I could tell by some of the other work that was sent in, that some people have nice print shop programes and did some excellent work, and no matter who win's, I think hozer should have more of these contest's for future games, because to be honest I think we all did better work than almost all of the old Atari games.

    (Good luck to everone).


  3. I would say that it is very important to me because I like to have everything that came with the game. I would say that about 92 percent of my 2600 collection are CIB, or seald and now I have close to 400.


  4. When I first read about this contest, on this web site, I thought it would be fun and easy to make a label for this game, but so far I have spent two nights working on this and I am only about 80 percent done. Just when I think I have it like I want it, I look at it again and want to make more changes. My wife say's I should leave my label the way it is and send it in.

    What I want to know is how many of you out there have all ready finished your's, and how long did it take you.


  5. I agree that what this guy did to you was not right, but look at it this way, he's not one of those people who you send your money to, and expect your games to be sent to you, but they never do. I had sent this little piece of s $50.00 for his crazy climber game, and he never sent it to me and he even change his email address.

    So in the end you did not lose any money, and I am out $50.00.


  6. If you are talking about the one on ebay right now, it would be worth about $20.00 if it were complete. If you read the information, the game is missing the instruction book, so all you are paying your $20.00 for is the box, because you can get the game by itself for about $4- $6 bucks.


  7. I started by collecting all the easy to get boxed games from Atari & Activision, then I started on all the other companys. I am getting to the point were I have just about all the easy to find games, and now I am going into the hard to get boxed games like Montezumas revenge, Minor 2049 I & II, Mr do's castle and others. I would have to say that with all my 2600 systems and the close to 400 boxed games that I have, my collection must be about 3 to 4 thousand bucks, and believe me my wife wishes I would stop now.


  8. You got that right!!. Some guy in California was asking for a first bid of $40.00, for a boxed copy of Alien. Alien is a little hard to find complete with the box, but it is not rare enough for $40.00.


  9. When I first started to buy games that were shrinkwrapped, I could tell that some of them had been re-shrinkwrapped and that pissed me off a lot, but now I have some nice rare games complete and mint, and I am thinking of buying a shrinkwrapping machine to keep them free from stains and that sort of damage, but after a while, the shrinkwrapping can start to crush the box, so now I don't know what to do. I have all my games in big plastic containers, but now I am thinking of building some display cabinets to show them off, but I would still would like to protect them a little extra.


  10. A little off the subject but for those of you who did not know, Parker Brothers was going to make a game for the 2600 about Mcdonald's, but what about I have no Idea., Maybe you have to make a burger and fries before you die.


  11. I think Venture, Berzerk and Asteroids were pretty good games that were turned into 2600 games, but as far as the worst, I would have to agree with the others and say Pac-Man sucked. When Pac-man was going to come out on Atari 2600, when I was little, I got excited, but when I got it I was mad as hell.
