My Atari 2600 startup after 26 years in a basement!

[STICH666]

 

I got it at a garage sale for $5.

Atari NEVER dies!

 

No modern system can hold up to years of storage like a 2600 can IMHO. They were built to LAST.

The Atari 2600 is a tank........

Heck, I'd bet it could withstand a Space War!

Definitely a Shark Attack as well

[Red 5]

It can survive everything from Frostbite to Dragonfire!

It would definitely be fine after a pitfall....

Nice video : )

[Dauber]

Yeah, but the joystick ports wear out pretty easily.

[pinball22]

It could even come back after being lost in the Bermuda Triangle!

Holey Moley, I cannot Fathom why you would put such effort into such a Glib response unless you are Coconuts. You must be completely Off The Wall. That was Out of Control! No sir, I don't want to mess with you, Tanks But No Tanks!

You're probably right... any new users are going to think we're a bunch of Crackpots...

See? If we cause too much Turmoil, we may Chase away too many people. And, if we're not careful, a moderator might emerge from their Dark Cavern, give this thread a Lock N' Chase us all out of here.

You are Off Your Rocker with that Word Attack! I'll bet it's no Picnic being a moderator... they're the Vanguard of AA! You must be on a Suicide Mission!

[iwan-iwanowitsch-goratschin]

I have heard that most of those mods here are Communists Mutants from Space lead by an Alien........

LOL this could go on and on every day from 9 to 5.

 

Anyway my Grandmother still has my mom's heavy sixer in her basement. It's been down there since about 1977 or 78. I wonder if it will still turn on. She won't let anybody down there since there is asbestos and most likely mushrooms growing off the walls.

 

 

BTW 9 to 5 is a game lol
