    Unfortunately, it is no longer available.  Al had added Trak-Ball series games that included Reactor, Star Wars The Arcade Game, Missile Command, Centipede, and a couple of other games.  All were hacked to work with true Trak-Ball control.  Makes the games more fun!

    Mail delivery today!! The delivery guy had his hands full! 
    This neat-o hat from recent Atari.com purchase..

    …a neat-o controller as I get ready to lose a few hundred hours of my life to Starfield…

    …and a whole stack of games purchased from a friendly Atarian! Circus has always been one of my favorites, so that’s an easy win.  Basic Math and Outlaw are also very familiar experiences. The rest getting revisited here soon - playing some Human Cannonball now!
    Now at the point where there is no more bookshelf space for all this old cardboard - anybody have any IKEA product recommendations?? 😅

    This is a fun game.  I played it in the arcade but never go the home port.  I did get the hack done in AA that uses true Trak-Ball control!

    It's an Atari Inc release.  I've heard that the name was changed due to the movie of the same name but that seems unlikely since the move was released in 1994.

    I had to push myself to finish watching Andor.  It was too slow paced for Star Wars.  I know they were trying to deal with the political side of things but, boy.  There had to be a better way of doing it!
    As for SNW!  It is very well done and it can do the tonal shifts just fine because it is more episodic.

    I agree on all counts.  Like I said, we've plowed through season 2, which is not usual for us.  My wife and I agree this is one thousand times better than the slog of Andor (which we watched prior to this).

    Wife and I looking forward to it, so enjoyed episode 6, some iconic moments and meetings that set the foundations for things to come! I love that this show is the closest thing to classic Trek that we've had yet! A new adventure every episode, focusing on different crew members, It's great learning more about everyone.

    @Silver Back Looking forward to this. It's incredibly valuable to other independent developers and homebrewers to be able to hear Osman tell his story, and what it took to make something of that level on the Atari 7800. Thanks again for making this happen

    Hi everyone,
     
    I'm looking for a new Atari community where we can freely share our love for all things Atari.  I grew up with the 2600 of course and moved on to XE and ST computers.
    Plus any game for my PC that has the Atari label I also enjoy, especially the Recharged series.
    So I hope to be a part of some conversations here and have a good time with everyone here.
