I contacted Marc and he sent me this link. http://www.atarivcs.de/Choose the box you want and contact Marc on AA and he will help you complete the transaction. NOTE: The box he sells is not the version that was sold in the AA store.

When I ordered 5200 Tempest from the AA store a few months ago it only came with cart and manual. When I recently asked Marc Oberhäuser about buying his Tempest 5200 box, he said it was an AA exclusive box and I would have to order it through AA, but I dont see a box only in the store for the Tempest 5200 game. Can someone who bought one tell me how I get this box? Thanks!
I actually overlooked the fact that you mentioned Marc in your post! Anyway I just got this in the mail.

Since I only live a couple of minutes from the Philly Expo center I figured I might as well drop in on the 80's pop culture extravaganza that is Retro Con. Never been to one but Sunday is only $15 dollars so I am going to check it out. https://retrocons.com/

Here is a link to 5200 Nintendo hacks including Mario Bros. I don't have an Atarimax cart so I have not been able to try these. https://atariage.com/forums/topic/267300-my-8-bit-computer-5200-hacks/?p=3797543

Thank you!

Is there any difference between the ROM version and the cartridge version available through AA?
-
I am confident that I played this back in the day. Absolutely would buy.

If you build it I will come.

I'm all about analog crt so no hdmi but I am intrigued by "other upgrades".

Are there any more updates on the Atari 5200 Black Edition? Definitely I would be very interested in one if this project does come to fruition.
Black Edition?

An AA member named Marc Oberhauser makes them. He has an online shop but it has been down for quite a while. I have no experience with this gentleman or his services.

I am very interested in RGB for the 5200 but only on a crt through component. I am naive about the whole process but my question is this: Is is possible to extract the rgb signal from the 5200 is such a way that a HD Retrovision cable could be used to convert and pass the signal directly to my tv?

Those wico y cables are worth 30 apiece according to eBay. I was looking to get a double wico setup but $150 is hard to swallow.
I'm at a $150 for two controllers, one keypad, and one Y cable. Gotta admit that I absolutely love those Wicos and my 9 years old god daughter feels the same way. She is a wiz at Frogger.

Wait a minute! Does the fourth image on post 351 suggest that Tempest Elite is headed to the 5200 or is that just an ad for the 8-bit version?

The most desirable con to go to and I'm 2857.1 miles away.

Optimize/speed up the unfinished 5200 version of Stargate prototype!
Hear! Hear!

Their panel at Too Many Games consisted of 45 minutes of talking about bodily functions. No exaggeration.

They also do a live recreation of said game. God help us all.
The game in question starts at 15:41

These kinds of games are exactly what I am looking for...brand new games, created from the ground up by passionate programmers. Just awesome! The quality looks to be there. A huge undertaking for certain. I'm not a huge platformer fan but would have signed on just go support. If only the NES could see more releases like this at this quality point...droooool.
The game's main inspiration is LIMBO so this will not be a typical Mario style platformer but rather an adventure/puzzle game with platforming elements.

I'm a Xeno Crisis backer and in the latest update it is mentioned that Tanglewood will be released on August 14th.

Fans? I guess I'm not hip cuz I never heard of this person.
Apparently Chris has been around for quite a few years but I only heard about him/her a couple of months ago when youtube recommended a video about him/her. I watched it, was amused, and then promptly forgot about him/her. A couple of weeks ago I decided to check youtube for TMG videos and that is when I discovered the entire breakdown incident. I then decided to include it in my post about the con just to see if anyone else knew what what I was talking about. It's not that you are not hip for not knowing Chris, it is just that you have a life outside the internet. However if you wish to go down the Chris Chan rabbit hole you will find no shortage of information to keep you amused.

Unaware. Please elaborate.
I only recently learned of Chris through a video by Pewdiepie. Apparently Chris is the creator of a comic called Sonic Chu, a sort of Sonic/Pikachu Hybrid. Also Chris tried to find love on the 'net and found himself trolled in the some of the cruelest ways imaginable. Eventually Chris declared himself to be a woman who is also a lesbian. Well it seems that Chris held a fund raiser to go to TMG where she was told to leave by security after complaints of her being too affectionate with her fans. After being told to leave Chris collapsed on the floor until the police arrived.

Haha! yea sorry, wasnt checking this thread.
I went on sat. Didnt see any panels. I dont know of its just me but it seems to be losing a little more of the magic every year. Its a nice chance to hang out with gamer friends outside of AA.
I usually wear my intellivision revolution shirt, since its usually the only time someone might appreciate it!
I didn't get there on Sat. until 5pm. It was date night with the wife. We went to Wood's panel because my wife thinks he is hot and that is the only reason she needs. While we were waiting to get into the panel, Wood came and stood in line with us and chatted for about twenty minutes. Nice guy although I only know him through the Game Chasers. We then stayed for Billy and Jay but their panel consisted mostly of talking about bodily functions. I was sad that the Nerdlesque show did not return as it was quite the pleasant surprise last year.
I understand what you mean about TMG losing it's "magic" and, honestly, I was ready to throw in the towel after last year's show but I am glad I did not. This year was full of good vibes and some very interesting vendors and home brewers. Unfortunately I missed the (in)famous Chris(tine) Chan have his/her public breakdown. Finally, I did not see anyone wearing an Intellivision Revolution shirt.
