Duckie25 Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 Greetings fellow Atari fans. I am excited to see that this awesome childhood memory hasn’t died. I just dug out my collection of cartridges and am adding to it. I am hoping to find some people willing to sell and trade games so I can build my collection. Thanks everyone!

HDN Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 Hey, @Duckie25! Welcome to the I/O! Glad to have you here. Atari 2600 is a great system to collect for. All the good games are common and cheap. I bet you won't have much trouble building your collection! Duckie25 and Justin 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDN Posted August 30, 2020 Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 @Duckie25 I am not Canadian like you are, but my good friend Wingoose is. You will see why we named him that. He's a wild goose that has become sort of our pet over quarantine. As you can see, he's never too far away than when he was last! This is also my I/O profile picture!

MaliciousCarp Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 Welcome! I don't have anything to sell or trade, but I am curious what you are looking to add to your collection. Are you hunting down games that you have always wanted to play, games that you used to own that you want back, or just looking for games that you missed back in the day?

Duckie25 Posted September 2, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 @MaliciousCarp I love finding games I had when I was a kid. Unfortunately I sold my collection a number of years ago and have regretted it ever since. So I am trying to build a bigger collection to help me relive my youth...plus they are the best games to play!

HDN Posted September 2, 2020 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 @Duckie25 Have you tried Bump N Jump, Tunnel Runner or Miniature Golf yet? Those are some pretty fun ones that aren't often talked about. If you have other people to play with, I would also recommend Artillery Duel or Flag Capture, though both are definitely acquired tastes!
