I believe both variations are listed here

Also interesting to note is a casing variation on Coleco titles. Look on

the back of the cart and it usually says "Made in U.S.A." I have a Donkey

Kong that has "Made in Hong Kong" Does anybody have any other titles

from other countries? DK by the way is NTSC.

Yes, I've seen this released by DMS and Radofin. I have one myself as I collect Pong systems. (Don't know why? Once you have one, you have 'em all. lol) It is a very common game. You probably could pick one up off ebay for $1 boxed and of course about $7 S&H.

I had the same question a couple of weeks ago. Tempest explained it well here. You should find that "sweet spot" on the side of the coffin and push down on the joystick. You will hear a sound that indicates you checked it. If a cross is inside it will appear in your inventory box. There is (I think) one cross on each of the two "coffin" levels. So once you find one you can move on.

I had trouble killing Dracula at first but with the kind help of these veteran gamers here I was able to do it easily. First position yourself in the upper right corner. Wait until Drac approaches and swing below him. Now this was the part I was getting wrong. I was pressing the button expecting it to repel Drac for awhile. You must hold down the button and it will repel him in the opposite direction. In this case, it will push him up, since you are below him, and into the prison in the upper right-hand corner. If you run out of the effect of the cross. Press and hold the button again because you should have three crosses at the beginning of this screen. One for each coffin level and one for entering Drac's room.

Once you do it you'll find the hardest screen is probably the 'shooting gallery' screen which you have already past.

Seller says "please do not ask for a different rate as it is not fair to other bidders to grant one"

I think it's unreasonable to ask that much for shipping. Some people give neg feedback if S&H is $3 and it says $2 on the package. I don't mind the seller adding a few bucks for supplies but I stay away from any auction where the seller sounds dishonest or misleading.

I got some cartridges a couple of weeks ago that were shipped in an ACT popcorn box. When I opened it, I was expecting to see the popcorn instead of the packing peanuts. I just had to laugh. :lolblue:

Most of these appear on Sean Kelly's Commercial Archive Vol. 2 and I love 'em all! Now, I must find Vol. 1.

Ron, do you have the link to that?

Thanks!

If it has nothing to do with Atari, then leave me the heck alone!

LMAO! :lolblue:

Thanks for the advice everyone. I've had a couple of people contact me this way and got some good deals but this one has a lot of ????

September 3, 2002

A person on Ebay contacted me with an offer because they saw me bid on a game they have.

I asked for contact info and a PayPal account ID.

Now I checked the address and phone # on 411.com. The address and the name match but the phone # doesn't. It is listed in a different city according to the area code.

Second, his PayPal ID does not match his Email address.

Does anyone know how to verify that this person is who he says he is?

Is there any other info I can ask to verify him?

I was thinking if I send him a check it would at least verify the address.

Any ideas on this is appreciated. Thanks!

I received my games today. They look great and play great.

Thanks VGA! A pleasure doing business with you.

Chris, throw that map away! It's only meant to confuse you! I tried to make sense of it too when I first played the game.

Stan Jr.(I think) has a map for it at:

This is one of my favorite games since I got back into Atari! Have fun

That sounds like what I was "trying" to do. That S.O.B. would nab me each time I tried to swoop underneath.

Thanks for the tip.

I have to also say that my deal with CJ went off without a hitch. The whole deal was completed in about 3 days!

Definately someone to deal with in the future.

Thanks CJ!

How do you trap Dracula in the prison? I know that you repel him with the crosses. The best bet would seem to get him positioned between you and the prison but I can't seem to accomplish it. :???: Any strategies on this?

August 24, 2002

In school, a classmate brought in a catalog with the games in it. We talked about about we wanted to own all of them. (He would be so proud of me now )

The first time I played it was at Sears while my Mom shopped. I played Adventure for hours.

It's not to be confused with Playaround's Rosy Palm Club.

:lolblue:

I was in Numb Thumb and Atari Age clubs. I think I still have the issues but can't find them yet.

Odyssey had a club magazine out too. I saw an Ebay auction within the last couple months where they sold a lot of about 6 that went for about $130.

Nice work!!! :thumbsup:

I could only get your first link to come up. I couldn't see the cord and plug.

I think....

General Home Products, makers of the WW BullsEye, was a Magnavox licensee.

You might have replacement paddles for the WWBE??? I have a couple of the systems and none have the Magnavox logo on the controllers.

Thanks Ron. I appreciate the reply.

The Human Cannonball scores in the dBase are still hosed. We are working to get many shortcomings fixed.

I feel a lot better now knowing someone didn't play that damn game 5,000 times straight! It seems impossible but I wouldn't put it past some people.

My personal best is a 29!!!

WOW! That is incredible!!! Way to go!

We should have an AtariAge Tourney. Say 72 holes over a few days.

Sounds fun

August 19, 2002

I'm guessing that they had, at some point, a golf match where they combined more than one game. For ex. they play 8 rounds of 9 holes=72 holes. 38-46 under par would not be that far-fetched.

Twin Galaxies should post the rules that they scores were accomplished. I know in some cases they do and my no means am I bashing them. I love their site and the service/dedication they provide to the community!

Anyway....what made me think that the score was achieved by a multiple game was when I looked under Human Cannonball. Now the maximum score you can get is 7. Take a look at the high score for this game. I think it's something like 35,000. That means the record holder played this f***ing game 5,000 times flawlessly :yawn: .....somebody hand me a gun!
