FS: Atari 2600, Games, Storage Case

[roll the bones]

Trying to get rid of some items I've had laying around my house for a while.

 

I have an Atari 2600 system with a single joystick and paddles. The paddles don't seem to be working for me but maybe they can be fixed - I don't know. Also included are 26 games along with the instruction manuals. Some of the games don't work when I put them in the console. Not sure if this anything that can be remedied or not. These are the carts that I verified do work.

 

Super Breakout

Space Invaders

Combat

QBert

Ms. Pac Man

Joust

Centipede

Kangaroo

Pac Man

Video Pinball

Yar's Revenge

Fishing Derby

Pitfall

River Raid

Stampede

 

Everything is stored in the case seen in the pics below. PM or email me ([email protected]) with an offer.

Still available if anyone is interested.

Very handy storage unit you've got there. Isn't it a Sears model? IIRC, the Sears one had a gold stripe and the Atari storage center has a black stripe (at least mine does).

Also, someone here was looking for that particular kind of storage center recently.

 

I also can't help but notice the Yars' Revenge comic book in there.

Not sure if the storage unit is from Sears or not. Though it would not surprise me if that's where my parents bought it.

You might have more luck if you waited about 2 months or so and then put it on eBay for the Christmas crowd. That is a very nice set you have there, but most AAers are going to already have an Atari and those games. If I were just wanting to start collecting Atari, however, I would be all over that. Those games all look to be in very nice condition.

Did you try the paddle controllers with Super Breakout? That's the only paddle controller game you have in there.

Agreed; the Activision and Parker Brothers labels don't hold up as well as others with heavy use, and Activision's poor choice of label adhesive is well known for "actiplaque" spotting (which only your Enduro seems to suffer from to more than a minor degree).

[shadow460]

Yeah, look at his Megamania and then look at the rest--I didn't notice Enduro, but all the other carts look very clean. Megamania is the worst title I've seen for Actiplaque, and even the one pictured there has only a little of it.

 

I'm also shocked no one's bought this--that comic book is not easy to get.

Which one, Yars' Revenge or Centipede? I'm still looking for Centipede myself.

Yep, I did try it with that cart. I had no luck with it.
