Atari Creep Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 PLEASE excuse my ignorance here.... I never got into the early computers and or their games aside from Atari 8 bit. I found this cable in a pile of stuff. I normally, thought I do not know much about early computers, can generally figure things out. That said I have NO clue what this cable is nor what it would be for. I'm sure it's something simple. If anyone could hip me to what it is all about that would be great. Oh, and if anyone need this let me know. I have no use for it!!! Atari 5200 Guy 1 Quote Don't just watch TV, PLAY IT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 It's for connecting tape player to a TI 99/4a. Atari 5200 Guy, Atari Creep and Justin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari 5200 Guy Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 I have a TI computer but rarely use it because I only have 3 games for it. Now that I know what that cable looks like I will keep an eye out for it. Atari Creep 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Creep Posted December 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 (edited) I have a TI computer but rarely use it because I only have 3 games for it. Now that I know what that cable looks like I will keep an eye out for it. Well, Um, I kind of have one (that one) I have no use for. So, if you need or want it, it's yours! PM me if you do!

RickR Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 TI has some really great games, and they are pretty reasonably priced. Atari 5200 Guy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Creep Posted December 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 TI has some really great games, and they are pretty reasonably priced. I never did get into the home computers aside from the XEGS. (broken record) once we buy a house and I have space for a collection again I do plan to explore. Odd thing is my girls mom has a Ti in the basement but because we don't like each other I can't have it. HAHAHAHA RickR, The Professor and Atari 5200 Guy 3 Quote Don't just watch TV, PLAY IT!

RickR Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 I've got an extra TI when you are ready. We'll show her who's the TI master! Atari Creep, Atari 5200 Guy and The Professor 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari 5200 Guy Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 I appreciate the offer but the TI is not really one of my favorite computers. The only reason why I have it is because it came in a pile of mixed up stuff from ShopGoodwill. I was after the pile of games and the TI just happened to be in there. I really have no interest it...it just sits and collects dust. I played it once to do a high score run on Burgertime. Played for two hours, reached 200,000 points. Never played the thing again. I'm planning on putting it up for trade. Atari Creep 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
