  1. Getting an error connecting to chat. 8:25PM CST.

  2. They do if someone drops it off. They had a beat up gameboy for 2.99, but it was REALLY beat up, bad battery compartment...no thanks.
  3. Hit my local Goodwill today and actually found some goodies!
  4. Lets kick this one off with a good one! For one dollar, you can get Civ III complete, XCOM Enemy Unknown, Sid Meier's Pirates, and the Ace Patrol Bundle. https://www.humblebundle.com All that while raising money for charity? It's a win-win!
  5. RIP Glenn Frey :(

      Wtf is wrong with 2016???

  6. I figured I'd necromancy this one to the top. I have a few magic cards left I'd be willing to trade away. I also happened into a TON of cards for Jyhad and Galactic Conquest. I have no idea what to do with those! I just dug up some old factory sealed starter decks from 1997 (Tempest series) and put them on eBay. One of those boogers was selling for $75 on Troll and Toad!
  7. You've got a lot of gems in that collection! I may have to come "borrow" that copy of H.E.R.O.
  8. I think it was a year or two late to the party, and was in limited release. If it had a few years to get some momentum, I think it could have been a big deal.
  9. RIP Grizzly Adams - Dan Haggerty loses battle with cancer. My childhood is being consumed by cancer. Screw you cancer.

    Crystal Pepsi

    Slice had lots of flavors. As I spent most of my teenage years on some form of diet, I really enjoyed their diet cherry cola! I think their main flavor was a lemon/lime.

    Crystal Pepsi

    I remember when it came out. Now for full disclosure, I'm not a fan of Pepsi at all....but crystal Pepsi took it to a new level of Eeeewwwwwww. Still, it was better than "New" Coke. THIS was my jam:
  14. Just got in a Creative Labs VadoHD 8gig camera. Now to figure out how to use it!

      They work very nicely. You should be able to download their software suite, which has some really nice editing tools.

  15. I wish I could add to this topic, but unfortunately the Amiga was always just out of reach for me growing up. By the time I was in high school, I had so many friends who were Apple junkies, and thought the Apple II G/S was the bee's knees. I knew the Amiga would be a better machine if I could just get my paws on one! I can still remember the first time I saw graphic renderings from the Amiga. I was blown away by the realism. I specifically remember the picture of King Tut's sarcophagus.
  16. I played the C-64 version.....but there's no question this game pushed the envelope on both systems, and for computer RPGs in general. A review:
  17. Always a pleasure when I get a package from NoSwearManortm

      If it makes you feel any better Rowsdower I've grown up in the world of Cardiology and can say that the technology and procedures that make stents possible are today lightyears ahead of where they once were. It can certainly be a scary, life-changing event, but know that this is pretty routine in most cases and a good Cardiologist will see it through, no problems. The entire Atari I/O team will have you and your father in our thoughts and prayers. Best wishes!

      Thanks guys, it really means a lot to me.

  21. Asking for prayers and positive thoughts for my Dad. He was supposed to go and have a stint put in an artery today, but they found an earlier stint had collapsed and he's going to require a bypass.

  22. What kinda shape are the controllers in? I could use new ones if you're interested in trading.
  23. Spoken For: Burgertime w/ Manual, Mogul w/ Manual, all the 7800 manuals, the Epyx controller, the Atari Dustcover, and the Parker Bros, Activision, and Atari Catalogs.
  24. Id definitely be interested in Dark Chambers, shoot me a PM!
