Atari I/O Retro Junk Box!


Recommended Posts



Unfortunately, Rick couldn't handle the power of the box.   My thoughts are with those in his neighborhood that were caught in the crossfire, but they might have wanted to think about that before they got involved in Nazism.

Let me tell you...this is AWESOME.  I took some stuff.  See below.  But I just want to say this was great great fun.  I left a lot of good junk in there (don't want to be greedy), and put some new good junk in to replace what I took.

I took:

 

- PS1 Zero Divide.  It's in a cool tall cardboard box.  I love it.

- PS2 Goldeneye.  Did I mention I'm totally into PS2 at this moment?

- 8 bit Bug Hunt and Football - Did I mention 8-bit is my favorite system of all time?

- GBA Snood - I sure hope this wasn't intended for someone else. 

- GB Galaga/Galaxian - I may or may not be playing this at this moment.  I won't say. 

- Genesis NBA Action - I figure I did someone a favor by taking this out.  But I love basketball and Genesis.  What could go wrong?

- A Genesis power adapter.  I hope this wasn't intended for someone else

- A joystick keychain.  It's cool.  I may use it on an important key.  My shed perhaps.  Things to ponder.

- Emporer Palpatine Pez dispenser - I felt the power of the dark side compel me to take this.

- TMNT Figure

 

That's a lot, isn't it?  I feel bad.  But trust me...I think I put some really good junk back in there. 

 

The box is in rough shape, but I'll tape it up and get it off to NSG as soon as possible.

It should be a plug-n-play joystick from what I see in the pic. If it works............

Good eye AF, but it isn't.  It's nicely detailed, but just a rubber keychain. 

 

it looks like one though!

Nope. All You! I put it in so I'm glad someone could use it! I though you might be able to.

Thats the one I thought it was.....the rubber keychain one doesn't have red buttons along the base. Let us know if it works Rick.

So.....who wants to do another one when we are done?

I should be good for the next one as long as its after the Houston ArcadeExpo in November, so I can get some stuff to put into the box.
