Rev. Rob Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I just purchased a Bally Videocade. The title permutation is "Bally Computer System." First, I am very impressed with this little system. It's very innovative, I love the controllers, and a lot of the games are pretty unique, which I like. So, I have about eight games, and I am wondering what some of the "must haves" are. Here's my list: Bally Basic 2002 Sea Wolf and Bombardier 2011 Galactic Invasion 2018 Solar Conqueror 3005 Bally Pin Elementary Math and Bingo Math 2019 Cosmic Raiders 2004 Clowns and Brickyard2017 The Incredible Wizard 2012 Space Fortress So, what should I set out to buy next?

I printed some up and I'm going to program them. I was wondering if there are any really great retail games that I am missing out on.

+remowilliams Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Mine is a NIB 'Astrocade Arcade' The Bally really is an awesome and overlooked console. It is a shame that they appear so fragile however. Though I'm betting that tearing out the large amount of shielding (or tin foil insulation wrap in the first models! ) would go a long way towards making them less prone to breaking. I stripped the shielding down in mine and added the highly recommended AV mod to the unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have the BASIC cart with the built-in phono jack you can hook a cable between that and your speaker/headphone output of your computer and play all these games: http://www.ballyalley.com/program_download...d_programs.html Or burn a CD and play them from a cd player. You don't need to type anything in. y-bot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
