  2. NSG's December Christmas Giveaway!

    in Events & Expos

    Posted

    Ohhh, I'd definitely make a video opening these even despite my full anxiety on camera. At least it'd just be my hands! 

    Well. Hrm. My 'retro game' related item would probably be one of AtariAge's Homebrews for the 7800. Specifically if I had to choose just one the Baby Pac-Man port. there. It looks fun! and a looks like a nice port of a game that can't reliably be emulated otherwise due to the physical pinball component! Also I just kinda like Pac-Man.

    I've been looking at the TI-99/4a a bit and decided it's a computer I'd like to get into a little.

    So looking for a working TI-99/4a with all the hook ups and The Joysticks! Must work.

    Please, PM me offers if you have one. Not picky on model or Overall Cosmetic condition--- as long as it's not falling apart and held together with duct tape I'd probably be interested!

    I got this a bit ago. Thanks guys!~

  11. AgaCart - New SD Multicart for Atari Lynx

    in Atari Lynx

    This came in the other day and it works amazing great and is easy to use. It came in a pretty neat 3D printed box I can store it in too. The only complaint I really have is the same complaint I have with similar products like 'everdrives', etc; that the loading time can be a little long. But that can't be helped given what such a product does. Overall. Everything I expected, a quality product delivered in a quality way. I would suggest purchasing one if you're on the fence.

    Did a trade for a Camo-Blue Neo Geo Pocket Color with some Japanese Slot Machine Game and Pac-Man for a TRS-80 Color Computer 2 with 16k Ram. Trade went smooth on my end. Unit got sent out, and I got my package safe, sound and working! Would recommend. Quick, easy trade-- communicative.

    I use a webcam for taking screenshots.  I usually have to take about 7 to 10 pictures just to get a score that is somewhat visible.  What doesn't help is the software used with the webcam has a 3 second timer and I have not found a way to turn that feature off.  So it's like hit the snapshot button...3...2...1...wait for the image to process.  Did I get it?  ARGGGG!  My webcam can see the vertical blank on CRTs but it slowly scrolls to the top and can cover up the scores.  Very annoying.  I need to charge up my 1999 Sony digital camera now that I found some new floppies to use in it.  It didn't suffer from that issue. 

    PM sent! (EDIT: To the wrong person, whoops. Resent to right person.)

    My TRS-80 Color Computer Model 1 died. :-/. I need a new one. Will take a Model 1 or a Model 2.

    I'm not picky on model but it needs 32k or more memory. If you have one for offer, lemme know.

    I know I'm new here, so I don't have a Feedback profile here as a buyer. But I do have one on AtariAge so here you go, if it helps - https://atariage.com/forums/topic/275209-rockyraccoon

    Worked out a trade deal! Thanks guys!

  16. Way to Obtain Atari 5200 Physical Case Parts

    3D Printing takes time. I say do Best Electronics. Do ebay to see if anyone is selling parts. There are now several Facebook groups that also dedicate to specific categories. "Arcade USA" now has his own 5200 Facebook group.

     

    If you read the post earlier, you'd see I already asked 'em, and they haven't had anything 5200 direct console/system related like that in 30 years. X3 Just controller kits, etc now.

    Call Best Electronics and ask them if they sell spare case parts.  Or, as you mention, you could always buy a broken 5200 and just borrow the top of the case. 

    Thanks for the heads up! I've shot them an E-mail. If that comes up negatory I'll look into buying a broken 5200 or 5200 case off ebay if possible.

  24. Way to Obtain Atari 5200 Physical Case Parts

    Hey guys!

    I have an Atari 5200. It's missing some pieces of the casing, it looks crap. It ''runs'' just fine though- despite it's condition!--- I got it for a steal of like 30 bucks off ebay on a bid due to it's condition about a year ago or so. I took a gamble and won-- even the controller with it worked okay! I'll attach a picture of the unit below.

    Basically, it's missing the back cover, and it's missing a piece up front. It is a two port model. (Though it has 'four holes' at the front as if the case was meant for four. I dunno what that means or if it's normal.)

    Is there a way to 'buy' these parts separately? (Does someone 3D print them or something?) or am I better off buying a 'broken' more intact 5200 and inserting the guts of this unit into the other one? If I do that, is there anything I should be aware of? 

    Thanks for your insights!
