Andred Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 Here's one on German ebay since donkeys ago http://www.ebay.de/itm/ATARI-2600-Kiosk-Laden-Vorfuhrkonsole-POP-Display-Unit-Imagic-Selector-/262845982541?hash=item3d32d7674d:g:8F4AAOSwB-1YnXxO Thanks for that link. I've been trying to find a realistic price for it but 2500 Euro seems... too much. The one in that auction has wood paneling (vinyl? laminate?) on the front instead of chrome. Any idea why? It looks to be in similar condition to mine, minus the broken shield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+-^CrossBow^- Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Hmmm. This lot also came with 2 of these which, through a bit of digging, I've discovered to be a Newport Prostick. IMG_2660.JPG I guess these were mail order items only. Most of the pictures I've seen have black bottoms. Mine have red bottoms. Anyone know the difference? I actually have 2 of these joysticks. Only mine came with an 8-bit Atari lot I picked up at an estate sale about 12 years ago. Mine have grey bottoms on them instead of black or red. I will try and dig one of them out. They are quality controllers in their construction, but aren't that comfortable for long sessions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toddtmw Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I wonder what it would take to make a kiosk like this today? Canabalize cartridge ports from a bunch of 2600's? And then what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keatah Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 A counter, and selector circuit, and whatever other miscellanea are in there.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see some pics of yours. The review of them that I saw said the same thing. I guess the ball on top is too small to be comfortable and the button has so much resistance that it wears out your thumb. They are certainly sturdy though.

hizzy Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Just curious, Al: Did you find them looking mint or did you have to work on them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andred Posted September 20, 2017 Author Share Posted September 20, 2017 Rather than try to restore this thing and risk doing more damage than the previous owner did, I've decided to sell it.
