Do NOT destroy your Atari cartridges!

[+Random Terrain]

Save the games for your children's children's children. Even the crappy ones will be worth something in the future.

 

If you aren't that farsighted, instead of destroying the games, make furniture with them. How about an Atari cartridge coffee table or an Atari cartridge entertainment center?

 

You could even make Atari cartridge art like Atari cartridge Christmas trees or other Atari cartridge "sculptures."

 

If you want to destroy something, get a bunch of old DOS CD-ROM games, throw them in the air, and shoot them out of the sky. Just make sure you save the cases and you don't shoot anybody.

don't destroy them! send them to me.

one quarter of them will build a giant lazer

that I will use to make the president of the united states give us ONE HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS and make every one in the us like atari.the second portion of them will make my

new seceret lair along with a new stool

for mini-me and the rest will be used to make a E.T simulater so when I capture austin

powers I will fry his brains with it.

I think "Dr. Evil" is "Soda Bob." He still hasn't figured out that those images aren't showing up.

Don't destroy 'em for Pete's sake!

Without these old worthless games most new homebrews would never see life in cartridge form.

So maybe I shouldn't have smashed those about 50 E.T. carts lately?

I wonder how much some Atari furniture would sell for?

 

Make an entire couch out of pac-man carts...super glued.

I can only imagine that five years ago there must have been someone plotting in secret to destroy mass amounts of cartridges!

Good Question, has destroying Atari cartridges been happening a lot lately or is it a single person doing it or what?

[NovaXpress]

It's apparently a trend that re-occurs every five years.

 

If we don't stop this right now, there will be no carts left after 2011. Won't someone PLEASE think of the cartridges?

I remember,in the early eighties,I bought FINAL APPROACH,and I thought the game sucked so bad,that it was a good candidate to be opened up to see whats inside.I destroyed it in the process,and im kicking myself today for that,how could I have been so friggin stupid?Now l'll have to track one down on e-bay.Now, I dont think any game is bad,there're still classic games,and all have their own good qualitys about them.
