2600 Turbo.

[2600 Turbo.]

I bought a DDSB on Ebay back in December. It is made by Digivision and has another game on it as well (pitfall? I forget)

[Magicard and Video Life]

Anyone received their reproductions yet? Mark lives close to me so I drove out on Thursday and picked them up. They're pretty cool. He did a great job making them and the overlays and manuals look great. I really haven't gotten a chance to fool with it much (there are 130+ pages), but it looks very interesting. I'm hoping to read it a couple of times and see if I can program a game or at least get a feel for it.

[A Comic Strip (#15)]

Check out strip number 2 from the archive. It's great!!!!!

[This is cool.....]

Count me in

[A Comic Strip (#15)]

Another great strip!!! I hope they keep coming.

[Vote for the 2600!]

I added my 2 Cents

[Snow White & RS Basketball at CGE]

BBQ are my favorite. Doritos are good too!!!!

[Snow White & RS Basketball at CGE]

I think it's a great idea. I'm grateful that the Roms will be made available and be packaged professional. I hope one day that all the Poto Roms will be released that way.

[A price for Chase the Chuck Wagon?]

That's not bad. I guess it depends on the condition too. I've seen lose carts go for over a hundred bucks!!

[Should Atari 2600 bootleg games have a rarity?]

I'd love to see a rarity on the German/Australian/GB carts. I guess a lot of it is perspective. Any foreign cart in the wild is probably a 9 or a 10. You never see them. On the other hand, the cart might be quite common in it's native country.

Thanks Warren. That is good info. It also explains why there are so few around.

Warren,

How may Beagle Bros carts (2600) do you have? Do you only know of a couple that were made?

[Defender Revisited...]

Cool trick!!! I've had it for 20 years and never heard of that. I was even a member of Atari Age. Oh well. Thanks.

[White Label Space Shuttle in NTSC. Does anyone have one?]

I do the same comparative test. I have an NTSC TV and console. I pop in the game and if it rolls, I believe it to be PAL. This is not 100 % proof, but for my needs it's good enough. Interstingly, I have a second TV downstairs, and the PAL games do not roll, but the colors are wrong and the screen is off center.

[What is your better half's favorite fave?]

For the 2600, she likes Ms. Pac Man and Pac Man Jr. Her all time favorite is Klax on the Genesis.

[Atari Joystick vs. Wico Command Control]

I like both joysticks. The Wico is more durable, but the 2600 has a better feel. If I had to choose, I'd go with the Atari.

[Self-imposed minimums?]

I like to break 2 mins 30 seconds on Superman!!! (I got 1:44 tonight)

[You're going to a desert island by yourself...]

I'd leave Combat at home for the same reason. Who are you going to play against?

[Help ID unknown 2600 game]

Hi Ben,

I will check tonight. I have noticed in the past that with some of the 'Zellers' games, they are actually just pirated carts with cool art. I'll let you know what I find later.

[Most addictive game?]

Mine is QB. When I'm at work and without my 2600, I play it on an emualtor (during lunch, of course )

[Guywith a box of 2600 stuff]

The only thing I can think of is the Starpath Supercharger. That would be a great find if you get it for a reasonable price.

[Close to doing what others deemed "Impossible"]

Good luck King Atari!!!!!!!!

[Carrying case for Atari]

This is a great item. I have an Atari and a Sears hard case and they are great. They hold all of your controllers (not too sure about the key pads for Slocum's cart), system and multiple carts. Unfortunately, they're not real rare. You still did pretty good. My guess is like 35 - 40 USD to ship. That's not too bad. Where else are you going to get one?

[I "heart" /| <--- (ho-made atari logo)]

I use to play pinball and Superman all the time when I was a kid. They were great games. I still like them both. The best thing about Superman is that I try to break 2 mins all the time. Great Game

[I Give up]

I smell a troll. No way this guy is serious.... He's just pushing our buttons!!
