You are very, VERY welcome!

I know it's the giving season, but you didn't have to gift me the week! Congrats on 12 in a row! Now it gets a little more interesting....

You listened to the whole thing already? That's crazy!!!

Ep 292: Airlock

Ep 291: Freeway

The FINAL episode of The Atari 7800 Game By Game Podcast is now on iTunes & YouTube. In this episode, we vote on the 5 best and worst games on the system. Thanks for listening! It has been a fun ride!

You broke the tie! Pengo it is!

Yes! Time to Represent again just like you did in Kaboom!

4 way tie! Next tie breaking vote will determine the winner. If no one casts it soon, I will, lol.

GREAT clarification. Honestly, from the announcement graphic, it seemed like it was only Coleco stuff. Perhaps something can be added to clarify that.

And no one can pick against the Browns this week!

To be part of a cool place where we all get along!

Happy Atari Day Everyone! Here's my Atari Day review with some I/O mentions as voted on by the forum members:

Thanks for voting in the last poll! My Freeway review is done and will go live on the next Atari Day, November 26th at 6 AM EST. Now it's time to vote on December's Atari Day Review. For the theme, I picked Atari 2600 games that have ice and/or snow, or that take place during Christmas. Voting will be open for at least a week, so vote today!

Thank you! Bad Boy the GoBot

GBC lasted 2 years after the GBA came out GBA lasted 5 years after the DS came out DS lasted 3 years after the 3DS came out Any talk of the 3DS being discontinued as soon as the Switch comes out is simply ridiculous and unfounded. I expect the 3DS to last another 3-4 years after the Switch is released.

Rescue On Fractalus Atari 7800 Prototype Review:

Yup. Children's Palace! I remember the catchy TV jingle (Children's Palace - That's Where It's At!): It felt more like a toy warehouse inside compared to Toys R Us. And the video games were right in the front and you could flip through boxes instead of the card system. I recall seeing Superman on the NES and River Raid 2 for the 2600 there. I also saw a Wonder Boy in Monster World for the Genesis, but I can't remember if I bought it there. I might have when they had a going out of business sale. I also recall some special sets, such as a GI Joe 2 vehicle set I bought on clearance that including two extra, random figures. You didn't see these at regular stores. Also, I once found a vintage Human Torch Mego figure on the shelf in the clearance section, well after it's run. Where else could you find a toy that was discontinued 5-10 years earlier?
