Thanks to user AtariToday, I now have a few more titles in my 2600 arsenal, as well as some much appreciated overlays and manuals.  Cheers!

big delay on my part for posting this so late, but I had an awesome time trading with Atari.io member greenween! I scored some Atari computer games and met a genuine cool dude in the process! Highly recommended trader. Thumbs up!

I will have a lot of INTV dupes to add just as soon as I can figure out what I needed out of a new lot.   For now lets just say I'm a happy camper to find He-Man and Zaxxon in the same 26 game lot that I paid a VERY good price for! 

INTV dupes for trade (loose carts):
 
Astrosmash
Armor Battle
Bomb Squad
Advanced Dungeons&Dragons
Tron Deadly Discs
Mission-X
Atlantis
Space Armada
 
As always I look for INTV, some Atari, and Sega Genesis primarily, but talk to me!!
 
Got a few extra Atari 2600 games to add to the list:
Pac-Man
Summer Games
Gunslinger
 

I picked up some IntelliVision stuff today & I should have a few dupes. I'll probably update my post tomorrow. ????

I've gotten used to my newest Atari 7800 Edladdin controller 

still would like to try one of these..... 

They work better than the pro line by far, BUT it is near impossible to hit both buttons at the same time due to how the buttons lay in the plastic rather than above it.  I would recommend using a Sega Genesis controller with the Edladdin Seagull 78 adapter that lets you use Genesis controllers with 2 button games on the 7800.

Swordquest is just game and box, Atlantis is complete with catalog and mailer.

Don't like the Flashback 1 controllers?  Well, you'll hate the real 7800 controllers then.  They are just a larger version of the flashback ones. 

I have a Flashback 2 as well.

That's a bang-on assessment MaximumRD. The Flashback is what it is, the general public seems to have liked them. If you want the closest thing to real Atari hardware though stick with the 2 or 2+.

Oh yeah the original Flashback was really more of a testing the waters device, also uses NES-on a chip with the games being ports, and those included controllers work only with the unit. Later Flashbacks , well the 2 and 2+ were actually really good as they were re-engineered hardware based on original 2600 chipset, even has traces on the board where some modders added an cart slot for very good compatibility with original carts plus you can use original joysticks and paddles. From the 3 onward they were not designed by the same people but most buyers seemed satisfied, they mostly just change up the games list and amount of included titles. I have the Flashback 2 and I am happy with it as a convenience / conversation piece but my favorite thing is using my Harmony cart with one of my original Woody or Vader models.

With a bit of cleaning and shifting, I now hear the glorious sounds of "Mattel Electronics presents...."

Thanks Brian!

hopefully they all work!

Score ! Nice grabs man! 

The Mrs. and I had a busy morning!  I was at the end of my budget after a couple of hours.   Got this haul all for $37.

Thanks!  The Atari powers up fine, I need to get the RF hooked up and at least test it with a 2600 game.  

Sweet deal.
Congrats on taking in an abandoned 7800 into your home!
 
The garage sales around here should be starting soon.
Here, people stick announcements to electric posts a month in advance because it's all duplexes and triplexes and sidewalks and alleys.
No space, no time to walk n' stop. With the phone-in-hand walk nowadays, hardly looking up.
 
In the town where I grew up for a while, there are now by-laws whereas you need a permit to make a garage sale and only on certain days, a few times per year.
On the upside, you can get in your car and drive around to find sales at every other house.
I digress.
 
Keep us updated on the gametime status of your haul, Row.
Curious about the 7800 experience.
