MrRetroGamer Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 I've posted this before, but since this is a NEW forum, I'll post it again. If anyone is interested in looking at my personal collection of Classic Video Game books and Magazines (mostly cover scans right now) check them out at: http://retrogames-r-us.tripod.com Scanning content is not something I plan to do, BUT if there is a specific article you know you MUST see and know the exact issue it is in, I can be persuaded to scan it, if you are nice to me!

Gregory DG Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 Hey that's cool! How many pages are the Atari Ages? I'd like to see an archive of them, since it's the only all-Atari magazine I can think of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRetroGamer Posted January 28, 2002 Author Share Posted January 28, 2002 Well, your wish is my command! I just found the link to a site that has scanned complete images from each of the 11 Atari Age Mags on line, available to download and view. They are grouped by issue in 11 different zip files (may be kinda big, hope you have a broadband connection!). This is not my site, but it is operational as of a few minutes ago. http://www.atariworld.com/tech_info/atariage.html This page does not seem to display properly in Netscape, so better use IE. I think you will enjoy them. Also, I will point out that while Electronic Games magazine did cover all systems, I'd have to say that Atari got the majority of the coverage in the issues all of the time.

NE146 Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 Sometimes I'm getting a page cannot be displayed. Other times I get the front end but clicking on the archives/catalog/ gives me: Pages ASP error 'ASP 0115' Erreur inattendue /atari/LstCatalogue.asp Une erreur interceptable (C0000005) s'est produite dans un objet externe. L'exécution du script est interrompue. etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolenta Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 You could find the covers of the two Atari Age newspapers on my website. The newspaper preceded the magasine. http://www.rolentapress.com/memorabillia/m...morabillia.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to actually read them, plus putting them online would be nice. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE146 Posted January 29, 2002 Share Posted January 29, 2002 WHOAH! Was there a Scramble made (or planned) for the 2600? If so, I've never heard of it. What's the story on that pic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the story on that pic? Milton Bradley had planned to release Scramble and Star Trek-The Motion Picture. I don't think they had working version of the games at CES buyt they did have the ad sheets that announced them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
