Jorbus Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 I'm proud to share my modest little collection with you all. Starting with the Fairchild VES and games I recently acquired. (Yes I am aware the dust cover is on upside down in the 1st photo) Funny, I'm feeling like a winning Turkey after all this for $75 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorbus Posted September 27, 2020 Author Share Posted September 27, 2020 (edited) And now the Atari collection, Also recently acquired from my work for a song. 6-switch VCS with keypad controllers (with bracket). Sticker on the board is dated April 22 1982. And the Sears Tele-games center. Owners manual, logbook (not written in), catalogs and original power adapter box that mentions the unreleased Tank II console Atari picture labels Atari text-labels Atari silver labels Atari manuals (including keypad overlays for Star Raiders and Basic Programing) Sears Tele-games carts and manuals Activision carts, manuals and catalogs Other 3rd party carts, manuals and catalogs Edited September 28, 2020 by Jorbus Yes, the Tank II did go unreleased 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorbus Posted October 17, 2020 Author Share Posted October 17, 2020 (edited) More Atari (and related) stuff from my collection: 2600 Defender & Swordquest: Earthworld with the manuals and comics. Swordquest is in an EA SNES clamshell (?). I always wonder how these things happen. This one takes some explaining (shameless plug alert)...on the left is a 4" lathecut record that my band (Deschtuco) released a few years ago. The song is a short tune called Phoenix, next to the 2600 cart of Phoenix and some Atari stickers for scale. And an original 1981 Aladdin brand Pac-Man lunchbox with thermos bottle.

Jorbus Posted November 13, 2020 Author Share Posted November 13, 2020 (edited) Picked up some dedicated consoles this week. Sears Tele-games Pinball Breakaway Radio Shack Electronic TV Scoreboard with the (beat) box and the gun. Also picked up a grip of NES carts. When I found my NES in storage my games and controllers were nowhere to be found. I still need to replace a few but this is most of my collection from my childhood.

Jorbus Posted April 28, 2021 Author Share Posted April 28, 2021 Haven't posted in awhile. Thought I'd update the pics of the collection. I've added considerably to my 2600 collection lately 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorbus Posted May 25, 2021 Author Share Posted May 25, 2021 Here's a new addition to the collection. Model 1 Lynx with carrying case, travel case, power adapter and aux chord and a handfull of games. It works great, and damn is this thing LOUD! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the top item the same as Atari Video Pinball? I have the Atari one and it looks damned near identical.

Jorbus Posted November 2, 2021 Author Share Posted November 2, 2021 Lord I was born a Ramblin maaannn... picked this up the other day, complete with carrying case, battery pack and power adapter. It works fine, but the speaker is very quiet. Dunno if that's normal for the Nomad or if it's blown, but the headphone audio is very loud. Funny still don't own a Genesis but with the AV out on this thing I guess I don't need one 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
