Nice one guys! Love the water

 

Any chance of meeting you @ SV ???

[8bit game that scared the hell out of you?]

Fractalus for sure.

 

Would also mention Tank Commander for the warning sound after which the enemy plane appears. Like, sh*t what just happened here? Ah, I'm dead :/

Depends on the flipside. With some cleaning it could even be readable...

Auch! Please don't do that. As Level42 said, use pure alcohol to clean the drive head. You can use the 'ear cleaner stick' (Q-tip) dip it in pure alcohol and gently rub the drive head clean.

@analmux : the last years there are always some Atari 8-bitters at Maarssen. I think Mr.Atari started to visit regularly and others joined later.

 

You will also find some of us at retro fairs. The next one is march 20th at Apeldoorn:

And there is Awesome Retro having their really nice location Awesome Space in Utrecht :

It would be nice to have a local AtariAge meeting. For some of us this is already happening every two months at Maarssen...

 

Last time was great at Atari Invasion:

[For those with cash, P.A.M. on ebay.de]

We were pondering about buying...

Then we saw the price...

After all these years...

I apologize for the inconvenience

[Write protected disc Atariwin800/altira]

IIRC it plays a digi sample first. The sample was taken from the movie 'scarface', so that will give you a hint

[Write protected disc Atariwin800/altira]

It contains a hidden surprise for those who used to change our named in the intro texts with a sector editor. We wanted to make sure to be able to write 'something' on the disk...

@havoccie: Yes, it is. This event is hosted by HCC Commodore and organised by Atari fans.

[Atari Invasion 2016-02-20 in the Netherlands]

@Level42: Never mind. Just got your registration.

 

:-)

[Atari Invasion 2016-02-20 in the Netherlands]

Cool!

 

There is internet connection. Don't know if it's good enough for streaming though.

 

Let's PM or could you register through the form on the website? Tnx.

[Atari Invasion 2016-02-20 in the Netherlands]

Sure! Anything is possible atm.

 

And please bring your own Atari gear if possible

[Atari Invasion 2016-02-20 in the Netherlands]
