      Oh wow.  That's cool!  But I'll tell ya what...if you were going to spend on shipping, how about just putting that in the donation pot instead? 

      Or if I win the 7800 controller, you can send them then :)

  3. Since this past weekend my subs on YouTube have jumped 30 or so. I have never tried to have a large channel and I am sure my content shows that but I would be lying if I said it didn't feel good! So if you are part of this little journey of mine, THANK YOU so much! Love this community.

  5. Before I order one from the UK has anyone here got a set of AV cables for the TI99 they can sell for about the same price? I would rather spend my money with someone I know rather someone I don't. PayPal ready.

      RickR

      That's a good price. 

      I used to make them, but it's easier just to buy them like that. 

       

    2. Justin

      Justin

      I checked all my sources for you Chris. That's the best price I've found by far, shipping included. I wouldn't hesitate.

      Ok, I guess I will pull the trigger on it. Again, I would rather give my cash to someone here than some random person.

       

      Thanks guys.

  6. So I was randomly sent one of them cheap handheld consoles with a ton of stolen new rims built in. decided to do a review on it. I posted it in the YouTube community should you be interested enough to check it out!

      Hey it's worth making a video for right?

  7. I have a bunch of stuff here that is itching to go into a junk box but not enough to start one. In these difficult times we NEED JUNK BOX 12, after midnight. Spreading of the disease!!!!!

    1. RickR

      RickR

      I'm up for a junk box.  But I doubt we'll get the participation level we need.  Prove me wrong, everybody!  

       

    2. Justin

      Justin

      If another junk box doesn't work out maybe we can set up some sweet trades? Pizza Party Weekend 2020?

  8. Sorry I have been absent lately!!!!! Lots going on over here. Hope all is doing amazing!

      Doing fine here. Welcome back!

  10. So my last video got me thinking WAY too much about the whole pre 8-bit multi console thing. Not sure if it would make any difference but I would love to start a small movement in that direction. I did message Hyperkin about it but not too sure where to go with this! Maybe reach out to some cool tech kats and see what is doable or not.

    1. Rowsdower70

      I'd love to have an Atari/INTV/Coleco combo. It would be awesome for the whole hobby, I think.

      We gotta have someway to keep these consoles alive and well as we don't know how long they will last. I'd hate to see them end up like the unit Wall-E plays :( Use a custom board or got with a Pi. Using an Android PC might work as well.

  11. Hey guys!! This Sunday is the Walk to End Alzheimer's. I just posted a reminder video the Atari Creep Youtube Community thread. Please if you can, donate and or share the link!!! Thanks as always for the AMAZING support I receive here.

    1. Justin

      Justin

      Good luck! I will share your video on Instagram and Facebook :)

  12. Normally wouldn't note of a video posted here but I am VERY interested in hearing what EVERYONE thinks on this topic. Head over to the YouTube community here on the forum and check it out please!!!!!!

      I'd like to think this is all bluster. No one really wants a war in Asia. It will blow over. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it does.

  13. I have been away for FAR TOO LONG. But now that I am able to get in, The Creep will once again infest the IO forums!!!! Hope everyone is well and hanging in there.

    1. Justin

      Justin

      GREAT TO HAVE YOU BACK @Atari Creep!! The Forums just aren't the same without you! 🥳

  14. Good to be back in the IO. Now if only my thumb would heal I can get down to jamming on some games!

  15. I have been in talks with Hyperkin regarding a pre 8-bit console. Not sure if it will go anywhere but keeping hope alive. LOL I will update you folks as we go!!!!!!! Unless they tell me to keep my mouth shut!

      ? what do you mean by "pre 8 bit"

  16. Finally got me a Lynx. My excitement can not be understated.

      Justin

      I've been waiting for this news. This is a great day that I hope you'll always remember fondly :atari_lynx:

  17.  I got a screen replacement kit for my Lynx, is there anyone here willing to do the work? If so, message me your cost. I pay shipping both ways.

      @Atari 5200 Guy is this some work you'd possibly be interested in taking on? 🤔 I can personally vouch for @Atari Creep

  18. So rather than attach a Patreon to my channel or turn the "join" button on I have started a Discord Server thing. The idea is to offer some advantages folks get from the other services without a stupid pay wall. Things like being able to vote on or suggest topics, participate in contests/giveaways, early access to videos and anything else I think of. Still figuring out what to do with it. So if you are subbed to my channel, feel free to join. Right now we are talking about the latest HSSC and @btbfilms76 paddle controller giveaway.

  19. It's official. Retron77 is a total waste of money. My replacement unit is now acting up.

  20. So I posted my first retro toy review on the Classic Toy section. Snake Mountain. I plan to do more here in the future. http://forums.atari.io/index.php/topic/3849-the-creeps-play-things/

  21. Don't forget to enter the Custom Controller GIVEAWAY!!! No open to out Canadian friends. 

     

  22. New prizes and a cool $5 hand held posted.
