Flashback editions were done and from what I saw, CV didn't fare well but Intellivision sold better. We also have portable Atari and portable Genesis so where's the portable Intellivision? Maybe with SD card slot to load additional games? Or is having a 16-directional disc, 3 action buttons (the top 2 buttons on original controllers are the same) and 12-button keypad scaring AtGames?

Picked up cheap Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2 both CIB. X-2 is the black label release, X is red label re-release. $2 each

The only exception to TIA is the Coleco TIA clone for Expansion module and Gemini console. That one has different pinout. CPU and RIOT are the same though.

Could have been worse, like loose for $20. They have about 50 PS2 games, all sports stuff, for $10 each, a few XBox games (also sucky stuff) for $10, and a few DS pet games. If they had any good ones, those were probably picked clean. And XBox One console with 2 controllers, as-is no return for $250. I guess I won't be going to that Goodwill store for a while, too pricey on crappy stuff. If those games didn't sell at $2 a few years ago, they won't sell at $10 for a decade. At a different store I found Pole Position, Missile Command and Zaxxon for 5200. First 2 were $10 and last one $25. I would have picked up Zaxxon if it didn't look like a dog's chew toy CIB Atari 7800 system as well but "doesn't work", as-is, and $200 for it. (probably AC adapter but not worth $200 to gamble). I did pick up CIB Cosmic Ark (love the shiny Imagic box and all), Snoopy & The Red Baron, Name This Game (fancy cart style), and Krull plus 2 more all for 2600. Almost $50 for all 6 but they were all nice shape and did I mention I loved Imagic box and label?

Tempted to pick up Adventure II but tbh I don't know what it's worth. AA store still carries em (non-numbered) for $35.

+1 on PCEngineFX forum.

My local Goodwill are the same. They think an opened box of WoW WoD expansion pack is worth $9.99 when the code is used only once and probably no good anyway. Crapload of PS2 sports game for $9.99. Bejeweled for $9.99 when I can still get it new from Walmart for half that. It does say Coleco on the mini arcade.

eBay Auction -- Item Number: 263288552178 Seller had a few 2600 games including a hard to find gray box variant. The seller cancelled the listing (including the $500 bid someone placed!!) and relisted: eBay Auction -- Item Number: 112623872987 You can tell they are the same box. The price tag are the same, damage to the flaps are the same The seller had it relisted for $350. Nope. The gray box variant is probably worth one zero less than what the seller thinks it's worth and I have no idea what is up with that kooky bidder who bid $500 for the lot.

There's been a lot of Chinese sellers with 0 FB, odd names that looks like they used random number generator, and listed items at very low price. I've seen $20 Sony Vita with games, $25 new in box 5200 console, etc. The listing usually gets killed by eBay but if someone got suckered into buying the fake stuff, they aren't automatically refunded. If they don't open dispute due to invalid auction, after 21 days the seller gets the money where they can transfer or empty it out and eBay has no way to recover them. Buyers are still protected after that, up until 1 month past estimated delivery date but eBay are losing money paying back buyers when the seller screws the system. What I think needs to be done: if the listing is cancelled over suspicion it's fake, all buyers are to be automatically refunded and the seller gets nothing waiting to clean out.

Is there a "Sumguy got it first" thread? Today at Goodwill I spotted a green Coleco mini arcade across the room, the shape is very distinctive and the color green isn't common toy color in this store. But before I got there, someone else got it. I was able to get a closer look, $4 Frogger with battery cover on it.

$1 each: 4x PS2 memory card by Sony (2 blue, one red, one black) and CIB Tron Evolution for PSP

It is an insult to whoever thought non-centering version was a good idea. Whose idea was it anyway and how did that get approved?

No

There isn't other means of getting VGA out beside McWill's mod. McWill have sold the mod without LCD before. The size shouldn't be an issue, just scale it a bit so it'd fit Lynx II (slightly smaller than 1) and adjust the cart slot so it'd line up and fit with Lynx card connector.

http://www.atarimuseum.com/videogames/consoles/jaguar/Panther/index.htm Panther was planned but quickly scrapped in favor of 64 bits Jaguar. But if someone can come up with 3D design for Panther, how about using that with McWill's mod (no LCD, just VGA out) and making it into console with external controller? P2 port would be a regular Comlynx port since Lynx didn't have built in 2 players control outside of Comlynx.

C39 one leg doesn't look like it's soldered on the pad. The next one above looks like there's extra wires coming from somewhere.

No idea about HDMI or RGB so I'll let other answer that. Only older 4 port console needs mod to be compatible with the 2600 adapter. 4 port that has an asterisk * in the serial number is 2600 compatible. All 2 ports are 2600 compatible. However the 2600 video will not work with common AV and S-Video mod since the video signal isn't passed through. I don't know if any of the mod works correctly or not but I have a 7800 system so I can play 2600 games without having to deal with funky video issue from adapters.

Modern analog joysticks like those used in AVR and replacement part for PS and XBox systems are typically 10k and won't work as replacement for Atari 5200 without replacing the pots. As the thumsticks are small, it's hard to find a suitable 500k potentiometers that will fit and can work. So what about using digital pots? Like https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/analog-devices-inc/AD5241BRZ1M/AD5241BRZ1M-ND/617299?? I didn't find 500k version but this is 1 megaohm, just use half of the range. It has 256 steps which would come to 128 steps when you use 0 to 500k range and that would translate to maybe 3 horizontal pixels on screen per step. Analog thumstick (say an old PS2 or XBox controller or a custom DIY) wired to a microcontroller like AVR that reads analog value and control digital pot to have pseduo-analog output. Since digital pot uses I2C connection, you could stack total of 4 to control both analog sticks on one controller for certain games like Robotron.

Or get McWill LCD mod. But first check and double check for missed leaked cap residue and damaged vias. McWill LCD mod replaces the stock LCD complete with a modern LCD but they are over $100 and does require a bit of wiring to complete the mod.
