  1. Am I the only one sick and tired of the Flashback consoles? Now we're on 8 GOLD with HD out and it's just more Atari 2600? Ridiculous.

    1. Justin

      You're not the only one. I wish they'd up their game and commit to one unit. Include SD and Cartridge input. Make a good product at the level of NES Mini. One thing I give them credit for is availability, you can find Flashbacks everywhere. Not so with NES & SNES Mini.

  2. I just want to know why AtariIO isn't like a quarterly magazine already...

      It needs one. Could put some of the scores from score challenges in there.

  3. Some really great 5200 deals on Shop Goodwill auctions right now. Mint looking 5200s in boxes with a bunch of nice games boxed as well! Heads Up!

      Of course. These things always come along when I have no money LOL.

  4. Merry Christmas everyone! =D

      Merry Christmas Clint!

  5. Building a new PC, installing Win10 and testing it with Jag emulator and Tempest 2000. Love that the USB controllers work for it as well!

  6. Excited to have a loaded Roland JV2080 on it's way to me and put this Roland S50 to good use as a MIDI controller. Also will come in handy for the music in the Jaguar cinepak videos and background music for some Midsummer Dreams... =D

  7. I really want an Alpine card for the Jaguar but have heard so many horror stories of them going up in smoke.

      Really makes you think

  8. Looks like Gothca for the Jaguar may be surfacing soon... *fingers crossed*

    1. Atari 5200 Guy

      Atari 5200 Guy

      Gotcha!? Like the NES Gotcha? Oh...Gothca. I misread that. My bad.

  9. Stumbled upon a Trimersion 3001AD VR headset for $25 so that's on the way... just out of curiosity sake.

  10. Sorry, but everyone is getting coal for Christmas. Santa can't afford anything after he gets me a PS4 Pro, PSVR and 4K 55"... ;-)

  11. Less than a month away and I'll be thankful for PSVR! =D

  12. Plans in place for this upcoming weekend to visit Tappers Bar & Arcade with a bunch of friends. Really looking forward to seeing the selection of arcades they have!

      I wonder if they'll have Tapper.

       

       

  13. Still could use a trashed Galaga for the 7800 if anyone has a spare...

      Don't got a trashed copy, but I do have this one with manual for sale on the bay. I would lower the price to $10 for you, if interested. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Galaga-Atari-7800-1987-with-Instruction-Manual-/291847051438?hash=item43f37098ae:g:7AIAAOSwaB5XskL-

  14. Weird dream about the Lynx version of Lemmings including a graphic printed silk hankerchief and poster.... at least, it looked really nice in my dream!

    1. Clint Thompson

      *Handkerchief even...

  15. Designing and releaseing CAD files for a Lynx cart, white dental Jaguar backing and a modernized Joystick of the 9pin and USB kind.

  16. Anyone with a spare copy of Galaga for the 7800 they'd want to sell? =D

    1. RickR

      RickR

      I'm going to a retro show today....will look for this for you.

  17. Scored a copy of Defender 2000 for only $40! Who says deals can't be had...

  18. Had a dream (nightmare?) that the Atari Flashback portable was plagued with flickering/flashing LCD issues and they had to do a recall. This is what happens when I get too much sleep - or more than 4 hours at any given time.

    1. Rowsdower70

      Rowsdower70

      Did you eat a hoagie before bedtime again?

    2. Clint Thompson

      Clint Thompson

      No but that does sound good! :D

  19. Find it fascinating to see a lot of like 6 5200 lab loaners carts including the Meebzork prototype on Shopgoodwill!

    1. RickR

      RickR

      Did you buy it?

    2. Clint Thompson

      Clint Thompson

      No, I didn't bid on it - don't even have a 5200 currently and while I've always thought it would be cool to have a few of the lab loaners back in the day, I seriously doubt it would be something I would ever collect anymore.

  20. Isn't there a way to create/embed a gamer gallery on the top or bottom of the forums for gaming related pictures without the need for creating threads?

    1. The Professor

      The Professor

      I'm not sure. You can add photos to your own gallery.

    2. Justin

      Justin

      Hi Clint, there's a member gallery that you can visit by going to the nav menu at the top, rolling your mouse over the FORUMS drop down menu, and selecting GALLERY :) You can visit the gallery directly at this link: http://forums.atari.io/index.php/gallery/

  21. Make a modernized Missile Command VR for the PS4/PC. Would you back me?

  22. Threw a Nuon controller and N501 remote on eBay if anyone is looking for either...

  23. I get to play PSVR today!!! =D Battlezone is up!

  24. Kind of glad I missed out on that ST Book even though it was only $860

  25. I like how AtariJaguar.com takes you to Atari.IO but AtariLynx.com takes you to Atari - IO needs to claim ownership ;-)

    1. Justin

      Justin

      I agree! I negotiated with the owner of AtariLynx.com about 10 years ago. He was asking $1,700 for the domain name, but I guess Atari corporate beat me to the punch. It's okay though, when we take Atari and we can all reclaim its legacy it'll all be in one big happy family :)

      Justin, is that the plan then? Take back Atari? I'm down with that.
