Krytol Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 (edited) This is a crossover from the 2600 forum: http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=103434 I'm excited because I finally found my first 5200 in the wild (2-port) (after having my original die a few years ago ) So I'll start: I don't think many collectors have all three Redemption 5200 manuals..

Show off!!! Mine would have to be my Adventure II limited edition! Come to think of it, it's the ONLY 5200 item that I actually own. So there!

thomasholzer Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 Simply a 5200 is unique in Europe, a boxed 5200 in Europe is even more unique :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hex65000 Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 A little flawed and only two of them exist... Plus I managed to lose all of my old layout drawings which means I'll have to start over if I want to make another one. http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=43368 Not rare but It's my truly unique item.

ymike673 Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 I have a complete boxed BBSB that also included the Miner 2049 cartridge. A gold and red sticker on the box states that this is a "Super Special Offer", FREE "Award Winning" Miner 2049 cartridge enclosed. I purchased this new for about $25 in 1985!

MaDDuck Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 The 5200 StarCon controller - VERY rare indeed! OMG!!! is that THE StarCon???? A self centering analog controller! WOW, I wish I could manufacture a million of those, 2-4 for everybody. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIVER Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 Well i found a Promotional 5200, kinda unique i guess. I have never seen one before or heard of anyone else that has one. Any of you guys seen one before?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classics Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 I have a 2600 box similar to that, but I have not seen the 5200 before, nice find. Also drooling over the POS board a bit, I wouldn't mind adding one of those to my collection. OBUnusualItem: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also drooling over the POS board a bit, I wouldn't mind adding one of those to my collection. OBUnusualItem: So you converted BBSB to get rid of the bankswitch or did you make a custom PCB for it? Either way you could sell those like hot cakes for all those that a) can't find a BBSB b)can't afford to\won't pay the stupid price it commands.

Yes, it is THE StarCon, it's actually a digital controller with a built-in analog conversion circuit. A few of these surfaced a few years ago (from the original designer/manufacturer), and a bunch of lucky collectors were able to get their hands on them. You can read more about that in this thread here from 2003. If you really want to build those controllers, the schematics are actually attachments in that thread.

MrRetroGamer Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 I think this is pretty cool - it's the 2 page Atari 5200 "centerfold" magazine advertisment. I got this from Dan Kramer himself, and I believe this was a production mock-up. This is printed on heavy stock and if you notice it is not folded in the middle. It's cool the way the letters in the text on top are spaced to allow for the fold in the magazine. I have it hanging in a frame in my computer room.
