About this blog

Started March 2019 with an Atari Junior and one game Mrs. Pacman bought on a fleamarket... More than two years later i own:

 

305 cartridges, a whole lotta manuals, 52 boxes, some hombrewed, 5 consoles, different accessoires and controllers...

 

My hunger for more still ain't satisfied :)

 

cheers, 

StormyWeathers from the Netherlands

My collection so far... 343...

River Raid II and Cosmic Commuter are on their ways... Shortlist: Still hoping for Tooth Protectors (almost had that one last sunday), Waterworld (someone beat me to it), Strawberry Shortcake (could have it but to ugly label), Missile Control (bought broken cart, still searching...) and Quadrun (maybe someone is willing to sell it to me).   Long list: too much to tell but still missing about 150...   VID_20211019_185204.mp4

9 AtariAge & Hozer

2 maybe 3 AA's VS 6 Hozer. Hozer wins... These are all proto's, homebrew or repro but so valuable to me. Tried to find the reproducer of RSC but never found him or her. Maybe its An AtariAge but with a new label, i don't care, it Costed me about $30 and still very happy with it. Also happy with harem which i bought in the usa, the box in germany and manual i made myself...

9 less rare cases

Somewhat less rare cases but still pretty odd titles. Bought dishaster without a label and broken cart for 11$ and repainted, copy-pasted etc almost from zero... I was so Proud of this, still cart is broken bit the game works. Same as tanzende teller. Most valuables are boing and glib. Dice doesn't have a front label ( seems all panda's miss a front) so i picture this from the side...

9 Rare Cases

I called this rare but these are not more special than part two of the mixed zone. Offcourse my most valuable is x-man which i also own a manual and box and laser-loop which is the expensive version of z-tack of bomb (it's also packed with a bomb case). Also happy with Galactic (condor attack) and Galaxy Defender (nexar). Well basically i am happy with all but these were never bought as quantitive addition...

9 Coleco, CBS, Technovision & Mattel

The last 3 CBS, 2 coleco, 2 very rare Technovision (i think) and 2 cheap Mattel's because they never work on my junior, happily i do own a Retron77 where Both games gladly work. Not sure if they are really cheap but i bought Them relatively cheap so i guess i am correct... Long story short, the last blast of my collection... What follows are single Carts, prototypes, homebrew(s) and well... Others...  PS: notes now Both Mattel's are almost notn readable but these are frogs and flies and koo

9 CommaVid, Konami & Epyx

It looks like we entered the area of rare and expensive Atari games which are difficult to collect but that is only true for CommaVid. The other 2 are completed, Konami with 2 restored labels and Epyx with even 3 replaced new labels. Very proud of these... Lot of work!

9 Spectravision & Bitcorp

3x Bitcorp but i am not always positively sure this is the case. There are a lot of different publishers out there for mostly the same games. Anyhoe, i call Them Bitcorp and next to 6 spectra's these are a Nice addition To my everlasting growing collection...

9 Taiwan & Telesys

4x Taiwan TP-Series, one of those Many Taiwanese bootleg game series... A Friend once told me these were sunteks, i thought for a long time these were Ariola's and now i know the world of Atari is more than Just a footnote in gaming history. Still learning Every Day... TP-series... Ohh and Telesys offcourse...

9 Apollo & Sancho

Sancho and Apollo, not the best quality games but i like the labels on Both and i am a gamer but for sure a collector so i am happy with these... Shark attack has been replaced, there was a damaged label with a shark on it but a different name...

9 Data Age & Mythicon

Maybe the worst game ever with the most beautiful label ever, sorcerer! However, i even don't think the game is that worse, have seen worser (see top right in same pic)... I am very fond of having the Total collection of the Mythicon games

9 SEGA & US Games

2 Sega's and 7 Usg's... I do like the White usgames more than the black i think... Even if the blacks are nicer, maybe because of the cartoon images on the whites... still Need to restore name this game thou...

9 Tigervision & Videogems

Treasure below was in fact a kinda treasure below. Found that one together with x-man on the local marketplace in the Netherlands in my hometown and paid 150 € Total for Both. Found on the Attic of some old man who passed away years before. Probably not as special as red sea crossing and music maker found at a garagesale in the usa years ago but for me it's magical enough...

9 20th Century Fox

I like the games for some reason, maybe the labels, maybe the games themselves i cannot tell... I remember buying my first TCF Porky's and i thought it was some Taiwanees bootleg at that time, not knowing there is so much more out there besides Activision Atari or Imagic... That was last week! (That's A Joke ?)

9 Telegames

9 Telegames, not much to tell... Got kungfu superkicks in box and manual very cheap voor 'bout £10 and also got fantastic voyage extra. Maybe one of the best bargains ever on eBay...

9 CBS

9x CBS but it always seems to be connected to Coleco somehow. In My retro app i have corrected everything to CBS to make it look better... still not sure if i did the right thing...

9 Activision, Imagic & Parker

The leftovers, stars wars, frogger as mentioned before, 2 pictured Imagic labels and 2 Activisions where title match should be absolute entertainment a research have learnt. Distributed by Otto versand also but i am not ?% sure about this.

9 Parker

9 Parkers but i see you think... Where's frogger? Where are the different Star Wars episodes?? Hold on, patience... Oh by the way. No arcade game of star wars included. Missed that one twice, first as a kinda Promise from a seller who sold it eventually to someone else and one i wanted to pick up in Belgium. Problem was, there was so much traffic jams and detours that Day i couldnt got out of town, even after one hour driving... [Sigh]

9 Imagic

Next to Activision i always had a love for Imagic labels. The rainbow colours on the Silver mirror background... Only problem now is... Can't take a picture without making a accidental selfie ?. Two more Will follow...

9 Atari (red label, M to X)

Secon half of the red label series. Spotted An error in making these portraits. Should have switched motorodeo and midnight magic... Well i guess that's the only interesting tale to tell with these late Atari productions. No air raid, no birthday mania, no mangia'... Just the basic stuff.

9 Atari (red label, C to M)

The first half of the red label series i have collected over the last two years. Just another example of quantity collecting, no rare titles included as far as i can determine. Still 9 Nice ones, only desert Falcon cart is damaged but still Working on my junior...

9 Atari (Silver label K to T)

Also a Nice mixture between the Silver labels And kidzz stuff. Not CCW this time but Walt Disney, Muppets and peanuts. Nothing special worth mentioning. Taz is a perfect example of quantity collecting, same as Asterix but different. Still i was persistant to buy this after i already but Asterix

9 Atari (Silver label A to J)

To be precise, 6 Silver and 3 CCW but the Atari logo is the same so i keep it together in one portrait. Replaced the Cookie monster, the other 2 also need replacement but i am lazy... another thing to point out, you wont need a.kids controller, video touchpad or keyboard controllers also work... To keep in mind!

9 Atari (Silver & video series)

This one contains the first ever NTSC disappointment, Atari video Cube. I bought it pretty expensive in eBay in Austria and when i finally got my hands on it... NTSC ?. I do have a lot US-region games, that's not the problem And i also have a Retron77 but for this game colours are so very important and basically everything looks the same... Brown, red. Bummer!

9 Atari (Pac-Man & RealSports)

The Pac-Man series and the RealSports Series in one portrait. In the middle the first cart i ever bought myself next to my first 2600... I used to have a Woody with a bunch of classics in the 80's but i have An Elder brother so you can guess where that ended. He still has everything from back then so thumbs up!!

9 Atari & Sears

These 9 i took apart because these are some what connected by two, like Asterix & Obelix, the swordquest series where i still want to buy #3 waterworld in the near future, centipede followed by milipede and Stargate which is in fact Defender 2 next to a Nice blue Defender 1. Had to do this to make other portraits of 9 fit better but thats for later... Oh yeah and one Sears i almost forgot to mention.
