StormSurge 2,562 Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 BB, I thought I had more to offer you but it turns out this is it. I also have a Mountain King manual if you need that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ballblaɀer 1,302 Posted April 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 Wow, that's a coincidence. I was just looking (squinting) at a copy of that game on eBay, trying to figure out why it was all red. Methinks someone went to town with a red marker on it, but it's hard to tell with that potato-quality photo. Anyway, yes please to Pete Rose Baseball! May or may not take the manual -- what on my trade list are you interested in? StormSurge 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ballblaɀer 1,302 Posted April 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 Sure -- I'll take a photo of it and re-test it tonight -- it's in VG/EX condition. Anything else? I think you should pick one or two others to even the trade up... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StormSurge 2,562 Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 You sure? I'm completely clueless on value. I'm good with everything else. I need Defender II/Solaris but I noticed it's just the box. No worries! I'm happy to help you out! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ballblaɀer 1,302 Posted April 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 I've got a loose copy of Solaris for trade... or were you thinking of Stargate (i.e. same game as Defender II)? If you need/want Solaris that'll work fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StormSurge 2,562 Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 Yes, you're correct. I was thinking of Stargate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nosweargamer 8,281 Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Interested? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ballblaɀer 1,302 Posted May 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Interested? IMG_1655.JPG IMG_1656.JPG Yes to both! Let me know what piques your interest from my trade list at your convenience. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ballblaɀer 1,302 Posted July 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 (edited) I still have a fairly sizable Atari 2600 want list, but in terms of what I most want for my collection I'm now down to 4 Atari/Sears cartridges. Please let me know if you spot any of these for trade/sale at a good price. I'm at the point where I can't be too picky about label condition, either. Main and end labels should be intact, regardless. #04: Berzerk (yellow title picture label) -- I've seen a few of these pop up over the years. I can't decide if it's a major or minor variation in my mind, but for now it's on my want-list either way. #03: Asterix -- essentially a hack of Taz, it's incredibly hard to find this one in NTSC format. Some NTSC copies may be ©1985. Supposedly some copies that have the "P" for PAL are actually NTSC. #02: BMX Airmaster (Atari red label, NTSC) -- unfortunately one can't know if the cart is NTSC or PAL just by looking at it, and NTSC copies are super expensive #01: Superman (Sears picture label) -- I think there are 10-12 known copies of this. Not holding my breath! Edited August 25, 2017 by Ballblaɀer Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ballblaɀer 1,302 Posted July 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Thanks to RickR who came through with a power adapter, I have a TI-99/4A that I know works. I'm now looking for a cheap set of joysticks (or an adapter so I can use standard 9-pin joysticks) and some common games. Mainly I'm looking to play a few of the games that I played at a friend's house as a little kid -- Microsurgeon and Alpiner -- but if you have any spares of other games laying around, let me know!

RickR 15,358 Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Do you have the speech box already? For Alpiner, it's a must. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ballblaɀer 1,302 Posted July 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Do you have the speech box already? For Alpiner, it's a must. Nope! Right now I only have the 99, the adapter you just sent me, and the video cable that I'm using with my 1200XL (plus a monochrome-only RF cable that came with the computer). I haven't decided if I'm gonna keep the 99 yet, so I'm trying to limit the investment I make for now... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RickR 15,358 Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 If you decide to keep it...look into a "FlashROM 99" and a 32K memory sidecar. You'll spend about $100 for those two (plus you also need a speech box), but then you'll be able to play every game made for the system. Totally worth it IMO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ballblaɀer 1,302 Posted August 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 There's a handful of more common 2600 games I want. The only catch? I want them in near-mint condition, with little-to-no plaque/wear/dirt. If you have any of these and would like to help me make my collection nicer via trade or sale, send me a message or post here, please...
