chas10e Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 HOLY CRAP you guys! Look! I know the picture is a little blurry, but it's razor sharp in real life. This is why we keep a box full of odds/ends/cables. I think if I buy a cable like jmjustin6 bought for his CRT-TV, I could get RF working and an Atari hooked up. well there goes my "who's got the smallest TV" thing a different port of RF signal I suppose ?

RickR Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 There's an unlabeled port on top that I think is Antenna in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chas10e Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 arrived here ok .... still have to clear off kitchen table before opening ~ News at eleven ~ Well, did you get all the goodies? I was exhausted from work but did manage to get the junk box in & out ok Classic Game room DVD, storm trooper candy , Atari Pong PnP , 5200 Star Raiders cart & box , INTV Sea Battle, what I think is an auto fire gizmonian for 2600, 5 Comics ( 15 yr old nephew will read every word ) NES Captain Sky-hawk. . unfortunately a Sega CD took a hit so I removed it ... was a dimple in the disc protector a suspect with attitude .... I'm guessing this would be whom to blame jmjustin6, Rowsdower70, RickR and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariBrian Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 (edited) Here is what I took out. Very cool rubik's cube electronic game, word zapper for the 2600 and tetris for the gba (my legs will go numb on the toilet for many days to come). Sent it off to ballblazer.

correagonzalez Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 Very nice picks Brian, even though I've never heard of an electronic Rubik cube, looks like a regular one, just without the center piece, looking forward to see when ballblazer gets the junk box Rowsdower70 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to try my best to have it back in the mail tomorrow so that it's not sitting at my place until after Labor Day!

Looking forward to your review, I should be back from Puerto Rico on Tuesday, I also got a good trade back here for some NES console, gamegear, nes, Snes and N64 games, but no Atari games...???????????? I'll test them out and either put some in the junk box or put them up for sale or trade, will keep you guys updated just in case anyone is interested ????

Ballblaɀer Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 I see you have constructed a new Retro Junk Box. Your skills are complete.

Rowsdower70 Posted September 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 Doesn't look like its going to make the full monty in the same box, it got overstuffed again it appears.The generosity of our group is unequaled, but the bulging box is a side effect.

Ballblaɀer Posted September 3, 2016 Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 The junk box is packed and en route to correagonzalez! Here's what I took out. Atari Arcade Hits 1 -- might end up on my trade list or in a future junk box since it doesn't seem to want to play on Windows 7. That said, all official Atari stuff is cool with me! Phoenix (2600) -- I actually have a spare end label for this one... Maze Craze (2600) -- ...this one, too! Double Dribble (NES) -- A neighborhood friend back in the day had this one. While I don't ever plan to go for a complete NES collection, I think it'd be cool to pick up the carts that mean something to me, and this is one of them. Silent Service (NES) -- See above! Different friend, same story. ACE 3-way coaxial switch -- Something I didn't know I needed until it arrived in the Junk Box. Between my various consoles and my Pong, I'm all out of coax inputs on my TV. Penny Arcade NASCAR Red Line Racin' -- neat little backlit color LCD mini-cabinet thing. Looks like it's missing some side artwork for both sides, but otherwise it's in pretty nice shape! Pac-Man Stickers (Fleer, 1980) -- "Slide out the side door" and "I'm cookin' now".

Nice selections! I also got this silent service game on my last trade back home, hope it's a good one, just fyi, I went today to check out the old Atari company that used to be in Fajardo PR, looks like it got taken down a while back and there is now a residential complex ???????????? was hoping to at least get a picture where the old building used to be, but it's long gone, was a nice trip nevertheless to go sightseeing around the island.

Rowsdower70 Posted September 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 I love Double Dribble. I was surprised when I fired up Slam Dunk on INTV at the similarities to Double Dribble!

correagonzalez Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 The junk box arrived today, this is what I took out: Space invaders handheld game- Haven't tried it yet since don't have any batteries, but looks cool nevertheless just because it's space invaders. Atari plug and play game Laser blast Atari 2600-Already had this one, but it's is better shape than the one I have now, so why not? Robot tank Atari 2600-never played this, hopefully is a good game. Grand prix cib Atari 2600-Don't believe it's as good as Enduro, but since it's an Activision game it can't be bad. B17 bomber Intellivision- I only had Space Spartans so it's a nice addition to my collection PS2 Sly Cooper Dr mario for Gameboy, great game! Tmnt action figures Shredder and Splinter, had to pick these up, thanks for whoever put them into the junk box. I will be sending the box to Willie asap, can't complain, it's been a good run this time around.???? chas10e, AtariBrian, Rowsdower70 and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
