Worship the Woodgrain!

[KAZ]

I found yet another Atari 2600 Woodgrain at my local goodwill.

 

I just walked in, and then saw it. It just sat there with that gorgeous woodgrain, and was like "YOU WILL BUY ME!"

 

So I did. And the thing is it worked, and the color works too. The other one I got from there had color that glitched off mysteriously.

 

I do have one question...there's something rattling around inside of it, yet it still works fine. I have a genesis controller that has something rattling around too, but it works fine too. What explains this?

 

Is it like the fact that voltage sometimes gets too high, and shatters a diode or something?

Screw post most likely broke off. Take the offending item apart and remove or glue the broken piece.

Congrats!

 

Can you belive I have been to 5 different Goodwills maybe 100 times each since the Mid 90s and I have NEVER seen an Atari unit.

 

South Florida is the land of Sega for sure but I have never seen an Atari 2600 at a Goodwill.
