    FYI The atari 8bit computers Run all the 5200 games , they change the controller is all. and all the 5200 only games have been done for decades.

    Multi Cart, there is many to chose from, Uno cart, MyIDE2 , AtariMax 8meg carts (reprogramable) SD max ect...

     

    My first was a 400 in 79 and xmas 1980 I bought the 800 for the keyboard. I still Today have my 800.

     

    Bought the TI99/4A when they had the rebate, I wanted to check out the voice Syn. which was free with buy 3 games.

    Memory card for what item TIPI, FinalGROM or Lotharek?

    I thought I was posting "TI FlashROM & FinalGROM (.BIN image repository) (UPDATED 2/17/2023)" Getting old...

    Flashrom99, I was pointing out that arcadeshopper took over something at atari Age. I did get the files and all back . I did not get the Finalgrom as my flashrom99 does what I want.

    Some of you TI'ers may still run 3.5" drives, but Texas Instruments only made sleeves for 5.25" floppies.  Sadly the TI was commercially extinct when 3.5" drives started to dominate.  So, what is a guy supposed to do when he wants some nostalgia and love for his 3.5" mechanical storage device?  It's simple really, make your own and share it with the world!  The attached PDF file below is sized perfectly for the smaller disks, just print it up, cut it out, fold it and glue it.

    That is impressive. It's not often to hear, let alone see pictures, of something someone still has and has continued to use for decades. Just out of curiosity again, if you have an Atari then you have games for it right?  What game(s) is your favorite?

    WOW, what a question LOL!! there are many many! I do" Last star fighter" and finish for high score a couple times a month, I still play all the oldies and the newer ones.

    I was just curious as I've seen VHS drawers like that before, and I still have one, but not for floppies.  I'll have to keep an eye out for some.  The 800 is my favorite of the A8 line but I love my XEGS. I'm a little late in discovering disk based games for it but what I do have are entertaining. I especially like Solar Star and Omar.

    I remember the VHS ones, not many in a case, we had 100's of tapes.  800, I still have and use that one today. and same desk as well.
