I got mine brand new for $4.99 from Zayre's back after Christmas 1986. I still wish I hadn't thrown away all of those Atari cartridge boxes!
I would like to see some homebrews developed for it and the CBS Booster Grip too!!!

I just found out that Gamestop has Wii SD cards (1GB & 2GB) for $.99 each - and several of them around where I live!! I just bought 2 2GB card's today for $2.13 with tax!
I just had to format each (Fat32), create the folder "Game" and copy and paste the ROM's into that folder and it worked like a charm. One card has my 1001 working ROM pack loaded on it and the other has the newer ROM's since my last release.
Here's: the links for the SD cards at GS:

A fellow Atari book writer, Michael D. Salzman, has a Patreon page and he is sending two trading cards this month per patron (for this month only), along with early access to his monthly "Unauthorized Atari 2600 Throw Back Zine", early notification of his book giveaways on Amazon, access to select homebrew Atari 2600 games that Michael creates, and participation in polls and other fan feedback opportunities. All for the $2 level too!
This month.... Pole Position and Jungle Hunt cards are only $2!

Played one at the 2018 Houston Arcade Expo - the screen is off center, the trak ball is too small .... so not worth it!

Is this prototype of "Dark Tower" a completed prototype for the Vectrex? I am understandably curious. Thanks.
As far as I know it is - but never made it to being release.

That should be kind of a big deal
With all of us Atari.io folks coming, we should try to get together at least on the show floor or something. Get a good group photo and say hello.
Justin, do you have any advertising swag for Atari.IO that we could give out at PRGE and HAAG that weekend to help promote the site????

I only wish I remembered how I got it.
When you sign up at their website they mail you your first one free, then to get future copies you have to get a pay subscription. They also send you a link in email to an online viewer version too.
