MeatWithGravy Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 I like to keep them scattered on the floor in front of my CRT and old 2600. This is awesome. I, on the other hand, am a bit uptight and treat my Atari stuff like it's fine china. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadDog1981 Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 144 2600 games plus 2 homebrews. 48 Atari 7800 games plus 1 homebrew. I also have the Starpath Supercharger and 2 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCoolDave Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 I don't know but, I should be... this is PART of my collection I will be sorting though tonight. This big box was packed away with games for almost 30 years, there was everything in this box... Every system you can think of from the Arcadia 2001 to Jaguar with 4 levels of games. The only thing left in this old box is 2600 games... I'm sure it's over 100 different but, I wont know till I really look though it... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masschamber Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 I've got a ways to go. maybe if you stopped selling your collection in the spring and rebuying it is the fall you'd be there already. Or keep doing that I don't really care because it doesn't affect me... come to think of it , it actually benefits me... I made a 7800 arcade joystick a few weeks ago.... that's some pretty good bait right there. but in all seriousness I have somewhere between 300 and 400 2600 games plus all of the the 5200 library except metroites and bounty bob (though I have bb on atari 800), the entire 7800 library and around 100 atari 8 bit games (which is a surprisingly small portion of the library) and the entire jag retail jag library sans battlesphere and bs gold. Though most of the collection is from when it was easy to find tons of games at garage sales, flea markets, and what not, shame it is harder to find them today, though I find it bitter sweet, it might make finding games harder, but when you do hit that good find it is all the sweeter.

Hey, in all fairness I only sold my Atari 2600 collection once and realized that was a mistake about 6 months later. You live, you learn.

Skippy B. Coyote Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 you still takin' me serious? ain't you learned nuttin' over the past few years. Not a thing. Well, except not to sell systems and games when I lose interest in them for a few months. I did learn that lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCoolDave Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 (edited) Hey, in all fairness I only sold my Atari 2600 collection once and realized that was a mistake about 6 months later. You live, you learn. I hear ya. When I was younger, I had a Vectrex with 21 games (if you don't know, there was only 23 games for the system), all in the box with all parts (every game had box, screen cover and manual)... I sold it because I wanted a newer game system at the time Even today i regret it..I replaced it but, only have 3 games for the system and they are just lose games, no boxes or anything.

CartoonCade Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Well for a 17-year-old I'd say I'm doing pretty well at the moment. I've got somewhere in the ballpark of 135-140 cartridges with mostly common titles, but my two latest additions were Road Runner (an R6) And The Music Machine (an R10)! It may be a Kaboom! rip-off, but so is Eggomania. ...And, between you and me... I prefer Eggomania to Kaboom! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have piles of carts I rarely play anymore, well because work and stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impaler_26 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I haven't bought any 2600 games since years. I have around 170+ carts, mostly loose carts with ~20 boxed ones. I'm quite happy with my collection but maybe i should go hunting again next year to get to 200... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
