V.R Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Hi mate. To my knowledge those were the main consoles released in Australia. Pong was certainly released here aswell. Most of the computing lines were available here to. Your best bet is to check out ebay for a power adaptor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pangasinan Posted April 21, 2007 Author Share Posted April 21, 2007 (edited) Ive tried Ebay,theres is no power adapters available.its as if theres no such thing in Australia...but thanks anyway Edited April 21, 2007 by pangasinan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AussieAtari Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I have seen PAL Jaguars with Oz power adaptors that look original so maybe the Jaguar did get a limited local release. If it's an adaptor for a 2600, just pick up a spare console off eBay, some of the less popular types of 2600 wihtout games are going cheap. If it is a 7800 power supply then you are going to have to either buy another console or maybe buy an adaptor from Best Electronics and use a voltage transformer.

Ozgamer77 Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 (edited) I saw the Atari XE Game System (XEGS) being sold at Dick Smith Electronics in Brisbane during the 1980's. With a lightgun, prominent cartridge slot and coloured buttons it leans towards a console in my opinion but I do understand it was a redesigned 65XE. Much like Commodore's C64GS. Thought it was worth a mention in this thread. Cya! Edited June 3, 2007 by Ozgamer77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
