quite expensive for a decades old game

one copy for me please

So it was you who was faster than me on "Kleinanzeigen" If you want to sell the "Aztec" Tape - i´m interested!

For me also one "Soundtrack Edition" to Germany, pleaase

Food Fight is great on the 7800 and quite terrible on the A8 (Framerate is too low)

just got my HOKEY chip and installed it in my socketed pre-production Concerto. Updated the firmware to 0.96 All the games run fine on my PAL-machine, but no POKEY sound...? any ideas why?

I´d also take one!

English isn‘t my first language but „condition unkown“ and „untested“ means you don’t know in what condition the Atari is in and haven‘t tested it. Or am i wrong? And: Don‘t mention the gold!

so „untested“ really means broken?

bottom line: don´t cover your 800 in gold, it will decrease its value!

Was JRC behind the Turbo2000 mod? Did they develop it? Or did they simply use it, because most czech Atari users had it?

great read!

In the early 80s in West-Germany the big mail-order company "Quelle" was selling Taiwan knock-offs of Atari 2600 games under an new german name ("Angriff der Teufelvögel" etc) and they somehow got away with that...

The ads in western germany looked like this - nobody said that they were selling copies, but they said they‘d sell „the newest stuff cheap“ and everybody knew what was going on.

where did you get your games from? BBS? Friends?

Did you sell pirated games back in the day? Or is this the list where you ordered your pirated stuff from?

and here is an ATR of the directory itself SDMX0001.ATR

The only floppy disk I still own from my original Atari equipment from the 80s is the one containing a list of software that was unbelievable to me at that time. Practically every commercial and non-commercial program that was available for the 8bit Atari in 89 is searchable via a database, including how much space it would take up on a floppy disk. The purpose of this "Software List of Fine Productions" was of course to supply young people with pirated software. You could write your wishes to the operator of this service, enclose 3DM in stamps and receive the disk with the desired content about a week later. I was 14, had 3DM and few scruples and used the service actively. I found the good man at that time via a classified ad in the legendary german ASM magazine ("no lamerz!"). Last week I dug out the disc again and - voila - it still works! Unfortunately you won't be able to order there anymore What are your pirate experiences from "back in the day"? Here are some screenshots from this pirate directory

there is a copy on Ebay right now…

I also would need the new firmware for my old cart - Thanks!

After a first, fast check: the new test bios works with my PAL 7800! That´s great, thank you!

Thinking of selling my Concerto-Cart as it won´t work with PAL-machines and there is no information if it ever will
