Miss 2600 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 At first I thought this was a typo . I had never heard of the 2800. In what years was it produced? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amstari Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 At first I thought this was a typo . I also thought it was a typo when I saw one on eBay. It's in the hardware list: Consoles and Clones There is currently a boxed 2800 on eBay Australia for A$630 (US$636)! Does anyone know how much these are worth?

oxy Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Yeah my folks got it originally in Mexico city in the 80's, I believe from Tepito or mabye other place that sells "Fayuca" (black market illegal imports). Maybe it was the cheapest one as I rembember all my cousings have an atari way before me. It was my only atari system until I got a flashback2 a few years ago. I remember trying to read the manuals on japanese and the silver labels. Unfortunately none survive today. One by one I broke the joysticks playing!

MegaManFan Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 I've got two Atari 2800 flats that came off a printing press and never got folded into game boxes or sold, but that's it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've often wondered about these 2800 box flats that are floating around on ebay every so often, do the actual 2800 branded games exist for these?

I've often wondered about these 2800 box flats that are floating around on ebay every so often, do the actual 2800 branded games exist for these? Yes, I remember my first games and catalogs was in japanese for the 2800. Demonds to diamonds, missile command and asteroids.

nofrills100 Posted March 14, 2011 Author Share Posted March 14, 2011 (edited) What I mean is, do 2800 branded games exist for ALL the flat boxes? Or did they not all eventuate?

Cebus Capucinis Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 If I recall properly, weren't the carts just normal label carts and the boxes were the only special thing about the "2800 games"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rom Hunter Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 If I recall properly, weren't the carts just normal label carts and the boxes were the only special thing about the "2800 games"? In most cases: yes. In some cases even the box was normal (carrying a Japanese sticker) and only the manual was Japanese: http://www.atarimania.com/pgelstsoft.awp?system=2&type=G&label=118&step=25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
