AtariFan#1 #1 Posted August 26, 2007 I have one working Nintendo NES Advantage Game Controller that I want to trade: I will trade this controller for both of the following items that I am looking for: A working Atari 2600 Game/TV Switch Box & and pair of working Atari 2600 Paddle Controllers. If anyone here has both items and want to trade with me, please send me a PM and I will send you my mailing address. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

O.K., since noone wants to trade two Atari 2600 items for one NES item, I thought I would make it an even trade and also include a working Nintendo Game Boy Rechargeable Battery Pack & Link Cable.

SRGilbert #3 Posted August 29, 2007 That's a nice deal, if I didn't just pick one of those sticks up this weekend, I'd be all over this! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+FujiSkunk #4 Posted August 29, 2007 I need an Advantage ever since mine started going flaky, and I think I have some good paddles to spare (and I know I have plenty of switchboxes). I'll have to look through my stash tonight to confirm the paddles, but if I have them, I'll take you up on this, assuming nobody's beaten me to it.

DrLove0378 #8 Posted August 30, 2007 (edited) If you wanna hook your Atari up to an "old" TV to get the full "classic" experience out of it, you'll pretty much have to have the old switchbox... BUT, if you're hooking up to a modern TV, have you ever considered a "RCA Plug to F-Type" adapter? You can find 'em at Radio Shack, and they'll forever eliminate the need for one of those switchboxes. (A lot of people who had an Atari threw theirs in the closet, or threw it out, because they lost the switchbox and didn't know it could be replaced...) The adapter produces the best picture you can get, without A/V modding your console. Get a gold-plated one, if they have it. If you don't want to repeatedly disconnect and reconnect, use a coaxial pushbutton switch box -- preferably one with several inputs, so you can hook up other "classic" video devices along with it. I hope I was able to be of SOME assistance... Edited August 30, 2007 by DrLove0378 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
