  1. Does anyone know where I could find a copy of the instruction manual for the Jakks Pacific Wheel of Fortune Plug it in & Play game? Please Note: There are 2 versions of this "Plug it in & Play" game. I have version 1, but I believe version 2 is almost identical so I would be interested in either instruction manual. Thank you!
  2. I have been really getting into Activision Skiing lately and have started to experience a problem with the game or possibly my console. Whenever I load up the game it only generates very short courses for me to ski. For example, game number 3 is supposed to generate 30 gates to ski through, but only generates 6. Turning the console on and off, unplugging and replugging the console back in, removing and reseating the cartridge, cleaning the contacts on the cartridge and the console, exercising the switches on the console and turning it back on afterwards doesn't seem to help. (It's a Sears Tele-Games Video Arcade "heavy sixer") The only thing that seems to work is just playing some other games and then coming back to skiing after 10-20 minutes. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the console "warming up" or something? Anyone here have this experience / could shed some light on this problem I'm having?
  3. Thanks for the information! It's too bad b/c if it didn't do that I would be more than happy with the picture quality. I guess I'll have to save up for getting the mod done (probably go with electronicsentimentalities). Thanks again!
  4. I have the following set up: Sears Tele-Games Video Arcade "Heavy Sixer" • Replaced original RF cable with a RG6 Quad Shielded Coaxial cable with Gold plated ends connnected to the "Heavy Sixer" using a gold plated Coaxial to RF adapter • RF cable (the RG6 Coaxial) into DVD Recorder (Toshiba D-R4) Coaxial Input Link to more info on Toshiba D-R4: http://www.amazon.com/Toshiba-D-R4-Multi-Drive-DVD-Recorder/dp/B0007UVYOY/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top • Component output of DVD Recorder into Vizio E390-A1 Television Component inputs (RCA for audio cable for Audio Left and Right channels) Link to more info on Vizio E390-A1 http://www.amazon.com/VIZIO-E390-A1-39-inch-1080p-60Hz/dp/B009IBXEH8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1422643716&sr=8-1&keywords=Vizio+E390-A1 The picture looks great! I'm very happy with this set up except for one thing. When playing some games a channel display intermittently appears on the upper right corner of the screen that says "3" or sometimes "3 Stereo SAP". It's not always there, but appears intermittently and it only does this on some games - not all. For example, Space Invaders does not provoke this problem while Ms. Pac-Man does. I tried unhooking the audio connection to the TV because it appeared to be related to the game sound (i.e. in Ms. Pac-Man if I'm eating dots then there is the sound that goes with that action and the unwanted display shows up, but if I stop and don't move it goes away). Nevertheless, removing the audio cables did not make a difference. I have included a picture below to depict the problem. Does anyone have suggestions on how to fix this issue? Thanks! Dave

  6. Hello, I'm a neophyte to the Atari 2600 having not played it since I was 8 or 9 years old. This is my first post here after lurking and researching for the past several weeks. I bought my family a Sears Tele-Games Video Arcade "Heavy Sixer" for a holiday gift and have been steadily purchasing games from various sources. I recently purchased the game "Tomcat the F-14 Fighter Simulator" only to discover that it is a mislabeled version (indicates for use with the 2600, but has the 7800 circuit board). While I can't use this game with my console, I got to wondering if having a mislabeled cartridge makes it more valuable? Less valuable? The same? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!
