  1. very nice , looks like an exact match looking at the text for the switches
  2. it was great to meet the Atari Creep in person and wished we had a chance to play some of the arcade titles there but the tournament started at the very time he arrived so my attention was drawn away from that. I did get knocked out the first round even after a first & 2'nd place on the 1'st 2 tables , came in last on 3'rd & 4'th table , the very last table, Dracula, underscoring by a mear 130,000 ( Pop bumpers are 10K each) ... but that is how these things go "it IS pinball" I stayed til the arcade closed, had the food that was provided & enjoyed the day especially meeting up with another in this community. lookin' forward to the video
  3. lotsa nice eyecandy in that vid Rows and great stories of connecting with the peoples
  4. that's a great story and scheme between her and the owner of the store. I'm sure the Granny-approval sealed the deal, if you were playing Firefly for 2600 thered be no tears of joy
  5. I played the arcade cab for first time .cause of your find and it was quite enjoyable
  6. hey that kinda looks like the Star-ship Enterprise great job :
  7. THIS doesn't specify that "a" = advanced on sears consoles (and "b" = beginner) the 7800 console doesn't specify which is which the 7800 manual says "to the left is more difficult" but on MY console it is to the right I think all this exonerates you from doing anything amiss. it certainly made this challenge even more interesting I still haven't made the 3'rd screen
  8. yeah I wanted one too but could never find one $200.oo for someone looking for moniez to burn it would be tough NOT to atleast offer fitty bucks. I'm sure he just wanted the cars & got the stand for free
  9. crack open the console & try a replacement RCA cable of some kind to see if image improves ( note the tip of the stock RF cable is shorter on one end ) also that origonal RF cable might have some corrosion on it clean all that up somehow , 90% rubbing alchohol, brasso , file , whatever coax to RCA adapter is what I use , amesomest thing eve-a !!!!
  10. your 7800 is fine to play on now all the ambiguities have been ironed out snow screen prolly some bad RF cable or connection of RF dirty , you use one of them coax to RCA adapters or a slider box ?
  11. yeah it downloaded for me , watched with VLC player http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html
  12. yeah that's what screens shots or video is for ... "nerd credibility" the challenge just says: THIS doesn't specify that "a" = advanced on sears consoles (and "b" = beginner) the 7800 console doesn't specify which is which the 7800 manual says "to the left is more difficult" but on MY console it is to the right
  13. I tried game on my 7800 , there is no label on console which is "a" or "b" as it turned out on mine "a" was to the right I hope you keep on playing & sure you will acheive & surpass the scores you posted
  14. ok I gatta ask .... do you have set to difficulty "a" ? ... that paddle in screenshot is same size as a full brick left behind. -or- did your last ball not hit the top of the screen ? when my ball hit top of screen my paddle is reduced to the approximate size of the width of half a brick I was 3 bricks shy of 3'rd screen
  15. that's the size of the paddle on difficuly "a" at first Thought you were talking about the Alien button
  16. I liked it before I even watched it some reason I do remember it being more challenging , must have been the balloon bounce game I was thinking of
  17. wow that paddle DOES get dinky did clear a screen but didn't get to far past it , no pics yet though if you for some reason don't like the chimes hit the reset button to get a tune you like
  18. 7800 One on One Basketball has a Bird in thar Deadly Duck another bird game Big Bird's Egg Catch Pengo looks cute prolly not the birds you'd wanna eat for Thanksgiving ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Freeway has a great back story ..... google knows Barnstorming is great featured in "how to beat home video games" Eggomania is basically Kaboom! and both play great haven't really played to much Desert Falcon , never played Road Runner still up in the air on a vote
