Btgames Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Have to say after checking out your vol 1 download link I'm sold, I can't really afford to buy the 6 volume print books but I do intend to add all of the PDF volumes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atarifan88 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Even though I own the original Volume 1, I'll check out the revised free download. If I like the new format, I might go after all six volumes in print format. In the meantime, I hope start up your YouTube Atari series soon... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really looking into doing more videos next year. I have a new capture device coming today as a matter of fact to see what I can start doing. Probably won't have anything for a few months though as I'd need to build up a backlog. But glad to know there is still interest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVgaTv Posted December 18, 2019 Author Share Posted December 18, 2019 Just an update since Amazon is taking its sweet time stocking the book. The series is available on Barnes and Noble's website. And the first volume is even 5% off https://www.barnesandnoble.com/s/"Atari 2600 Encyclopedia"?Ntk=P_Series_Title&Ns=P_Series_Number&Ntx=mode+matchall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H.E.R.O. Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Bought the set of Kindle books. Haven't learned anything I didn't know already. I did laugh that the company that made the game Scuba Diver stole a portion of Seaquest's box art for it's label. I'm looking at the label going 'Isn't that Seaquest? There's the trademark rainbow (albeit shades of green)... -turns to Seaquest- Yup!' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I would check this link on Amazon because the pricing is still lower on there. www.amazon.com/gp/bookseries/B082PJJ9DJ Sorry for the confusion on this.

Special Teams Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Thanks again for putting these together @TheVgaTv. I'm enjoying the entire set - they really are a lot of fun. Would love to see your take on Intellivision and ColecoVision. I think there are roughly 125-130 games for each system. Dana 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dana Thank you so much for picking those up! Glad you are enjoying them! I would like to do both of those in the future as I never had either of those systems growing up, so it would be fun to go through the game catalog. With the way the lockdowns are going due to COVID it looks like I'll have the time this winter, haha! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spector Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Those books look comprehensive, and I take it they are in colour. But what does a British person do? If I were to buy them I would get all six in one go but the postage would be a zillion dollars? Damn! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why the series isn't populating on the UK Amazon, but the books are available from Amazon UK. Here is the link to the first one. If you click on my name the rest should pop up (they are filtered in amongst my zombie series) Hope you check it out! https://www.amazon.co.uk/Atari-2600-Encyclopedia-1/dp/1945294302 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
