    Marco1019 got a reaction from RickR in This is where they lose me...   
    You have to wonder about who proposed this and, more importantly, who the heck said, "Yeah, that'll work! Let's do it!"

    That's a good deal on the surface, especially given the three games which were sealed.

    That's a heck of a haul! I hope that didn't set you back too much.

    No, it was cheaper than trying to purchase and chase them separately. I have not sat down to estimate what the value would be, especially since three of them were sealed. But I have seen a few of those games go for $30-$50 each on Ebay and Mercari, some for $10-$20 plus shipping, and I paid $100 for all of them.

    One alternative is a browser add-on called Dark Reader. I believe it's available for most browsers and it's also free. I've been using it for quite some time & it makes a big difference on the eyes.

    Well there is no Atari ST or A8, maybe we need a VCS too? 😜

    @Sabertooth, I'm running your video back tonight in one of the feature segments. This is in the interest of time, but you should know it was received well during the previous episode.

    A few quick observations from my stream:
    The Atari Speakerhat is packaged in a very large box. I doubt I'll actually use the speakers but the hat fit rather comfortably upon unpacking. While the outside packaging for the bundle is quite colorful, the contents are packaged in brown boxes (albeit with ATARI VCS written on them along with the Asteroids shooter in vector graphics. Both controllers are really sleek! A few viewers were impressed with one asking if they can be used on PC. The system itself is slightly bigger than an iPad. It's not that heavy, either; I'm sure I'll end up onnecting it to my computer monitor and/or TV. Next will be connecting the system and checking if I encounter the update error. I know there is a way to fix it, I'm really hoping to plug in, connect, and play.

    You did WHAT?? 🤣
    It goes without saying that it was my first unboxing on video, and I'm glad I didn't prepare for it because I wanted to share my genuine reactions to the bundle. I had to give you and the community a shout out. Thanks for watching!
