Is this a real 2600 switchbox?

[27ace27]

Normally, I wouldn't ask, but after the people at gamers gave me a 5200 power adaptor for a 400, I question their credibility. All feedback is welcome.

Yes, that's the exact same one that came with my light sixer.

Mine looks like that, except it's not so crusty.

do you know haow to de-crustify it?

You wanna make it look purdy? I'd wire wheel it a bit then finish it off with some bronze wool.

Nope. I keep most of my stuff in plastic boxes and drawers and they have stayed fairly un-crusty looking over the years. Now I use one of these instead:

Yup, looks exactly like the ones I got with my Atari's too.

 

Standard stock old school generic switch box.

 

It's funny Atari never re-branded them. Even Coleco did that much. It's like all Atari did was swap boxes (or send their boxes to the supplier and had them packed in those then and there).

Mine is actually more crusty.

[brojamfootball]

Yup, that's the real deal.

Strange, there was one of those attached to the back of a TV I garbage picked, I thought it was just a generic one. Too bad there was no 2600 there too

[HFK]

Just out of curioustiy why is this a poll? Are you waiting to suprise us with a trick answer?
