vanman #1 Posted August 13, 2003 hey I am going to get a classic gaming console and need help choosing which one to get. I dont want any nintendo or sega console (except for the sega saturn). And was wondering which one to get. You can post replies here or at: http://www.atariage.com/forums/viewtopic.p...p=369288#369288 Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeybastard #2 Posted August 13, 2003 Atari 2600 Atari 5200 Atari 7800 Turbografx 16 You can't go wrong with any of these. If you're more into modern systems go with the TG16. It is similar to a Genesis or SNES in terms of graphics/sound capabilities. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jasoco #3 Posted August 13, 2003 Yes. I would choose the TG-16 if I were you. Can I be you? Please? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eric_ruck #5 Posted August 13, 2003 Get a Vectrex. You just can't emulate the Vectrex experience. Eric Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gamerz #6 Posted August 13, 2003 a vectrex is expensive isnt it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jsoper #7 Posted August 14, 2003 I think Tim Snider wants to unload his Vectrex and multicart if anyone wants to email him and talk business. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tyranthraxus #8 Posted August 14, 2003 I would reccomend the Colecovision, it has a great selection of games and the graphics are among the best for early 80s. If you are a bit more ambitious and don't mind fiddling with joysticks the Atari 5200 is great. Similar graphics to the CV and more arcade games than it.
