      Yeah man.  We were in a deep freeze for about a week. 

  2. Here's a pretty wild USPS Priority Mail shipment tracking.  It is supposed to go from Portland to Cleveland.  Looks like it is taking the scenic route.

      That's utterly insane. I haven't had the best luck with mail getting to Portland promptly. I've never tried mailing out of Portland though 🙃

      This is a really weird one for sure.  I've sent out a ton of packages over the years, and this is the only time this has happened. 

  3. 'tis the season for Frankenstein's Monster on 2600.

      Good season appropriate choice, Rick. I've yet to play it.

      It is really difficult, but fun. 

      And the final "death" animation is pretty incredible. 

       

  4. Happy Holidays, my fellow Atari enjoyers.

  5. The RickR store has been updated with even more good stuff: http://forums.atari.io/index.php/topic/2698-rickrs-good-junk-shop/

      I love your new store Rick! You're like the first astronaut in space! Keep up the good work :)

  6. Well, my store is all set up: http://forums.atari.io/index.php/topic/2698-rickrs-good-junk-shop/ Please take a look and contact me if you need anything. And huge THANKS to atari.io for setting this up.

      Congrats Rick! Your store looks great!

  7. Has anyone ever completed the 3rd mini-game of Atari "Pigs in Space"? The one that's Caverns of Mars-esque? Might make a good high score challenge

    1. The Professor

      That would be a good question for RadioPoultry. He posted an excellent review of the game in the Blog: http://www.atari.io/atari-2600-pigs-in-space/

  8. I'm looking for 5200 Ms. Pac Man and Rescue on Fractalus. Anyone know a good place to buy?

      Ask Lance over at Video 61. He might have them.

  9. Playing 5200 Pac Man. There's intermissions! It's a very challenging version, that's for sure.

      A classic!! Maybe the first game I played on a home console that blew me away!

  10. Hoping for the best for any flood victims down south.

      Same here. We've been lucky in my area.

  11. Do your part to help the economy...buy more retro games!

      2nd and Charles needs more locations! then I would be able to!

  12. So tired.

      Hope you get some R&R this weekend.

  13. Set up a Wii station in my house and plan on enjoying some games on that system. Spent a few hours playing the hunting games Rowsdower traded to me, and they are great! Need to change my focus from collecting to PLAYING. Help me out with this, brothers.

      My Wii is out in the garage but when I played it regularly I loved Okami, Muramasa: Demon Blade, de Blob, House of the Dead: Overkill and Zelda:Twilight Princess. Animal Crossing is also great if the whole family is in on it. One of my favorite things about the Wii is the softmod that opens up emulation. Get a Wii Classic Controller and it can really be a one stop shop for most retro gaming.

  14. My head is cold today...on with the Mrs Rowsdower Space Invaders beanie. Ahhhh, much better.

    1. Rowsdower70

      Rowsdower70

      Yes! Nice product placement. I'll get you your check.

  15. The meaning of life? Love. Try to love everyone as best you can.

  16. It's so easy to be negative about stuff. Give positivity a try. Your soul will thank you.

  17. Happy Atari Day!!!

      We have a little used car lot we've dealt with in our family for a few vehicles. Makes it pretty painless, thankfully.

  19. 5200 is coming out of storage this week.

  21. Ebay sales have really perked up in the last few weeks. Anyone else notice the same?

      I haven't been selling heavy, but the items I have put up have been moving well.
