      How cool! Cuba was never off limits for Canadians, right?

       

      Have fun.

       

  2. Our most snow yet! Hope everyone is having a nice holiday! Check out my post THANKS. http://forums.atari.io/index.php/topic/3614-most-snow-we-have-had-yet/

  3. Random memory - Back in the day as a kid I would be thankful of 2600 carts in ANY condition even with torn or missing labels, I guess I was more creative and had more time in those days as I would literally create new labels with sticky paper, colored pencils and I would even cover them over top with transparent sticky tape in an attempt to preserve / protect my work. While they were hardly magnificent works of art they were creative and original and damn I wish I had kept them over the years.

      I picked up some like that. My Tutankham has no label. It is sometimes cheaper to get those since some people turn an eye from a game that has poor or no labels. But it is a good opportunity to get titles cheaper.

      Hey, if a game works, I could care less if the label sucks. My copies of Adventure, Galaxian, and Swordquest Earthworld all have ratty labels, but they work perfectly fine.

      Those bad labels are just a sign of love ;)

  9. RIP Joan Lee I suspect it will not be long before Stan passes now, that is usually the case after the spouse dies and such a old couple have been together for so many year. RIP Joan Lee http://www.newsarama.com/35212-joan-lee-passes-away-at-93.html

      My wife and I just had this same discussion sadly. Stan had already given up the convention circuit because of his health.

      I just read that Yo-Yo. Sad times to see so many legends slip away.

  11. Sigh......I've not uploaded a video in some time and truthfully just don't feel like it. I have even started making a video 2-3 times over the last few weeks but then stop because just not feeling it, hope this is a phase :(

      Lots of people are very disappointed in the full line up. Not too sure what they expected. I have my wish list but know it would be too much to license some of the games. Oh well.
