Gurner Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Two Vaders, both PAL, made in New Zealand. Unfortunately, one has the serial number missing (pictured) and the other, I peeled off the damaged / falling apart serial number and manufacturer sticker and suck it inside when I was washing the plastic shell so it wouldn't get lost. Crazy to see they were made literally 10 mins down the road, in the Auckland suburb of Glenfield. Funny, considering they were both posted from other parts of the country. Smooth fronts, both in great condition, after lovingly cleaning shells in warm water with an old toothbrush and doing the old turning the foam switch pads upside-down to reveal the clean side.

sandmountainslim Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Will dig mine out of storage for the serial number. It's my first system from 1982. I do know it's NTSC and made in Hong Kong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liammw8 Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 CX-2600A S.N. 82590534 NTSC Manufactured in Taiwan. Found it in the classifieds for $20. Came with 2 joysticks, an OEM power supply, a universal switchbox, six games, an Atari catalog and the Centipede comic. I cleaned it inside and out - joysticks too, sold the games and now I'm collecting all Activision games. The smooth black goes very well with the CX-40 joysticks (the ones without the orange rings, which rub off very easily). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

santoscork Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 The front is smooth. It’s a PAL version. Left photographic evidence but the images here take up a lot of space. Wish I could resize them here in the web form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waylin Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 (edited) CX-2600A S.N. 812431847 NTSC Manufactured in Taiwan. Smooth front of case. In full working order except for the faint jail bars lines, which, as far as I know, there is no fix for without soldering, which I can't do.
