I like this, too. Just burned it. I also like the interactive graphics. Nice touch. One minor thing, and it is constructive criticism of course. No offense. The track, "Fade to Black," is not. It is really "The Call of Ktulu," by Metallica. Other than that, it's pretty cool. Thanks for letting me share.

As promised, please see attached both the ROM to load on Skunk or CD image to dust off the old JagCD if you like - hope some of you guys enjoy it, thanks for checking it out!

Messing around some more and threw together a quick MOD-playing Jaguar Jukebox which includes the classic Axel F. Have some audio issues to work out  (which I've been pointed on how to correct already, just need more time) but once done, will finish and release both the ROM and CD image. Feedback welcome, let me know if there's possibly a specific MOD you would like to see included. I originally wanted 12-songs but it looks like I'll have to settle for 9 or less. I know it's kind of goofy but it's just for fun anyway. Phil Collins is getting the axe.... 
 

Wow, very nice! 

And... do I lie? Glad to see your sickness finally took control and now you’re playing that gem of a system. Enjoy my friend!

Finally some time later and I have goodies that have arrived in the mail. Fault continues to lie upon BTB and AtariGamer for teasing me with Lynx goodness and mentally persuading me into this path of Lynx rightousness: *(nevermind the 1986 2600 E.T. in the beginning, totally forgot I was getting that)

Guess it depends on which one you love and/or play more. I think both are expensive to mod but equally worth it since it breathes new life into the machine entirely. Seeing some pictures online, I can't help but feel the Lynx I has a better LCD screen, though I can't say for sure since I've never owned one personally.

Beautiful color on that Fender! Always loved red or in particular, metallic crimson red but over the last decade or so, this color specifically always leaves me lusting.
 
@Atarileaf - when I was a kid, my cousin would come over could play The Entertainer and the Beverly Hills Cop (Axel F) theme song like it was no big deal. He grew up with a piano in the house from an early age and we had just picked one up from a local Church for my birthday that was shutting down. I could barely play chopsticks.
 
Fast forward a few years later and I was fortunate enough to receive an Atari 800 for Christmas which included some music creator program that had a lot of different music files already and when played back, would show the piano on-screen and all the keys depressed when the notes played. Using the 2600 joystick you could speed it up or slow it down and that's how I learned how to play Halloween on the piano and a lot of other songs.
 
So just pick up an Atari 800! =)

So yeah, this is an Atari/video games forum. But this is in the radio and music thread! So do any of you play guitar, bass or drums or anything else? Trumpet? Violin? Anything?

It's so beautiful. Ric's are such nice guitars! Love it! 
 
 
So a couple weeks ago I saw an ad on offerup for a fender squier guitar for 20 bucks. I've never seen a fender like this ever so I went to go pick it up. When I saw it, I noticed right away is that someone drilled 2 holes in the bridge and screwed it directly to the body and it was tge body only. No electronics in it at all. Here's what it looked like when I got it.
 

 
Its a 1989 Fender HM (heavy metal) squier strat. It cleaned up pretty nice. Nevermind the fingerprints though. Hahaha.
 

 
I ordered a all the parts I needed to put this back together. Needed all electrical, replacement locking nut clamps, trem springs and claw and screws to hold springs in place, pots, knobs and I found the exact same bridge to replace the one with the holes. And it came with the whammy bar! Just finished putting it together. Only need to solder the wiring. It's pretty much done though!
 



 
Action feels great. Can't wait to hear it through an amp!

Music is my first love, actually. One day in 1988 when I was home alone during summer vacation between 8th grade and high school, I got bored. Some kids when they get bored start drinking or doing drugs. Me?? I found a guitar instruction booklet from the '60s, so I grabbed that and an acoustic guitar my dad had and taught myself to play. So I'd play on my dad's guitar and my brother's electric. Got a Korean-made Fender Squier II Stratocaster as a HS graduation present in 1992 -- it's a cheap-o model, but IMHO, plays and sounds just as good as a "real" Strat. I have a Gibson Epiphone PR350-12 acoustic 12-string I got as a birthday present that same year.
 
When my wife and I got married, a lot of guests gave us cash (we never once thought of presents or a wedding registry!), and at my wife's (!!!) suggestion, we took some of that cash and got a CD burner (a new thing then), a DVD player, and a Fender bass. Another cheap bass -- a Fender Squier P-Bass. Interestingly, my wife never actually plays it. She tried a few times but didn't dig. I play it though. And when my wife and I were part of a pick-up band that opened for Peter Tork in 2013, this happened to the bass.

 
Anyhoo...my dream guitar from the moment I first played a guitar....its looks and its sound...the Rickenbacker 360 12-string. I tried one in a store...wow. A friend let me try his out....WHOA!!! Summer of 2013..my wife and I were vacationing in San Francisco. We stopped into Haight Ashbury Music Center. Above their counter is a wall full of various Rickenbacker guitars. I had just started a new job earlier that year after six months of unemployment. While I was drooling over those Rics, my wife said it looked like the price tag on one of the 370s said $1200. She looked at me and said, "You know, you have a job now! Just sayin'." I asked the guy behind the counter if I could check it out. He handed me the guitar. Price: $3200. (The font on the price tag made it look like $1200 from a distance.) Uhhhh...no, thanks.

But I kept what my wife said in mind. When we got home I went on Guitar Center's web site, did a search for used guitars, and learned that they have an interest-free financing program. So for a much more reasonable price, I ended up with this beauty:

 
I also play a bit of piano and blues harp.

Man, I haven't played this game since I was a kid but definitely have fond memories of it. Talks about Duck Hunt made me realize just how simple of a game it was, like many Atari games, but still really fun. There's just something that's difficult to match in terms of Nintendo's quality in regards to their games of that time.

Clint:  I also have the Best refurb.  It also has a washed out screen. 

McWill upgrade is awesome, but it's pretty expensive  And it's not an easy mod to do. 

What are yer thoughts on Toki? Sound off gang...

This is a tough question for me to answer! I really believe the Atari Lynx has the most "potent" library of any Atari game system in terms of highest percentage of great games. It's library is small but full of stellar titles. For me it would have to be Electrocop, Gates of Zendocon, RoadBlasters, S.T.U.N. Runner, Chip’s Challenge, California Games, Zaku, Rampart, Lynx Casino, Todd's Adventure in Slime World, Xybots, and Blue Lightning just to name a few.

Hey so i didnt check the pockets on the carry case and there was a California games in there

Thanks everybody for coming out to our RoadBlasters LIVE Event tonight! RoadBlasters was a good show. A lot of you came over and watched live on my YouTube channel, some of you were over there watching on Instagram too. Thanks for that! Weren't able to make it? No problem. Scroll up a bit, we've got the replay video posted in case you missed it!

Thanks for making these! If you have any extras or more to sell, I can make a post on the Jaguar FB page as well, though I'm guessing most already know about it by now.

The campaign has finished and is fully funded! Thank you to everybody who pledged and, also, to everybody who didn't pledge but nonetheless were very supportive of the project.

Yeah, I was kind of aware that he had some sort of dealings with the watch and was just more curious if they got anywhere with it, since the AtariBox seems dead in the water as well. I did watch one of his super long interviews or whatever it was for about 40 minutes and cringed quite a bit.
 
If they have a product at Target then I'm confused at how this can be so problematic and delayed.
 
I really wonder what the true underlying backlash is, if it's really the guy himself, the products, the fact of who is running Atari, all of the above or what would make people view it differently. Dedicated teams perhaps with real passion and history for Atari, a CEO that isn't out just to make a quick buck... there are so many things that could be good about the current Atari but it seems like a lot of it easily backfires and for more than just any single reason.
 
I guess at what point is it going to be OK for Atari to sell Atari-branded merchandise. After a CEO replacement? or someone like Curt Vendel or a combination of others joining the board and running the company the way it should be ran.

Gameband is another project by Feargal Mac Conuladh, this snake oil salesman is the same clown behind "Ataribox". Personally I will be very surprised if either product ever materialize and actually ships.  He seems to be a lot of talk, promises and buzzowrds with very little substance.
