[The No Swear Gamer Atari 2600 Reviews]

Boulder Dash was a wip for about 10 years and in the end First Star Software published it as an official release. Only 250 were made. With that, how about a BIN for $10k?

[The No Swear Gamer Atari 2600 Reviews]

The last of my 2600 collection was shipped out yesterday. The only 2600 carts I have left are homebrew and hacks and I might even sell some of those off. I have Turbo CIB on ebay right now. Maybe Boulderdash in the near future.

Goes to show what a failure Retrocade Magazine was that NSG didn't know that was my autograph on the trading card

[Your first car]

I had a POS 4 door 72 Chevy Nova that got handed down to me. My friends were embarrassed to be seen in that car. The best thing about the car was because it was such a POS I used to go flying down this one country road that had a hill that I would floor it and go airborne.

[Starpath Supercharger seems kind of cool....]

I will add this...

 

At a time when you were getting ripped off for buying a crappy game like Pac-Man for the 2600 the Supercharger gave you your money's worth. When you played a Supercharger game you could feel, see and hear a more advanced game than what was the status quo for the 2600 at that time.

 

I just read an issue of Electronic Games from 1982 that reviewed the Supercharger and they said games only costed $15. What a bargain.

 

I remember having Phaser Patrol (of course since it's the pack-in), Commie Mutants, Frogger and Mindmaster. I recall Fireball and Suicide Mission but they may have been the demoes included with the other games.

[Starpath Supercharger seems kind of cool....]

I had one BITD and I loved it. Frogger and Commie Mutants were my favorites. Since I have a Harmony cart I have no use for it - although it's moot since someone stole mine.

[Kay-Bee Memories]

I remember going to KB a lot but I can't remember what I bought there. I do remember the bargain bins with all the discounted 2600 titles though.

[My Favorite Atari Arcade Game]

If I win the lottery why would I get only one machine? I would get Asteroids, Space Fury, Space Encounters, Death Race, Tron, Discs of Tron and Gorf.

 

Until then I'll have to settle for the MAME cab I made from Computer Space.

[foxbat]

Nov 82 issue of Electronic Games states that the release of Raiders was replacing a game called Foxbat. Do we know anything about this game called Foxbat?

[What Are Your Favorite Pinball Tables?]

My favorite pinball of all time is either Cyclone or Comet - doesn't matter cuz they're almost the same pin.

 

Other faves are Sky Lab, Xenon and Tri Zone.

 

I was at Pinfest in Allentown last weekend and I shot video. I'm still editing the vid and hope to have it up sometime this week.
