  1. So my daughter is signing commitment papers for college. Might have to ease up on collecting for the next 20 years.

      Congrats! When she graduates, tell her you expect that she'll keep you in the lifestyle you've become accustomed to.

      I'm in year 2 of your boat. It's been OK so far.

      How about some Solar Fox?

      Er...I dont think they did Solar Fox on the Jaguar GW :).

      D'oh! I wasn't paying enough attention!! ;)

  2. That moment when you hear "Swing Low Sweet Chariot" at the end of a round of Moonsweeper.

  3. The Odyssey2 is hard to fully disassemble...

      I read this in Johnny Five's voice.

  4. There is a thread on AA stating the Keith Robinson of Intellivision has passed. I haven't been able to find a news account to verify. If true, this marks the passing of a retro gaming legend and a very nice guy. Here's the discussion: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/266706-keith-robinson-passed-away/?do=findComment&comment=3784483

      SHOCKING news. Keith is a fantastic guy. Wow..

  5. There is nothing like getting a new game, sticking the Bluray into the slot and then waiting 40 minutes for the most recent patches. The joy of modern gaming.

      Ain't that the truth.

       

      There's also that moment when you are informed that your hard drive is full. WTF.

      I hear XBOX One consoles can take a couple of days from the first time they are turned on until the user can actually play a game setting itself up and installing any updates.

      Having DLCs on physical disc doesn't help either. Wife and I bought the Borderlands Triple Pack which contained all DLC for all three games on discs. Took all night to install those so we had to wait a day to play a game. Yep...cart games have their advantages sometimes.

  6. What version of Pac-Man are you playing for Atari National Pac-Man Day? I'm going to go with the homebrew versions of Jr. Pac-Man and Super Pac-Man on the 7800!

      I like the Pac-Man 8k homebrew for 2600.

      What day is that? I'd play the 5200 version. My top favorite.

      It's today! In 1882, Atari had a huge promo for the release of PacMan on April, 3.

  7. When did eBay sellers start adding "Launch Edition" to every loose console listing? Here's a white "launch edition" Wii. Look at that gray "launch edition" Jaguar. How about a yellowing "launch edition" SNES? Gimme a flippin' break.

      It's because that is how eBay has renamed them in their database. It's eBay, not the sellers.

  8. When I left you, I was but the learner. Now, I am the master...of Public Administration. :). Final paper in last night! After nearly 2.5 years of full time work and school I am done with my MPA program. I'm very excited to be getting some free time back. I have no idea what I'll do with it but there will definitely be some space for Atari!

      Thanks a lot, everyone!

  9. Why can't this presentation create itself???

      If it did, it wouldn't have the desired outcome!
