strangedogs Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 (edited) Couldn't stop - between watching a chick flick with my wife (Forgetting Sarah Marshall) I played literally hour after hour. Percodan and Coffee helps! I'm waiting PATIENTLY for my MultiCart to get here but just got 7 more Carts from Ebay - GYRUSS is my new favorite right now. Also hooked on REALSPORTS BASEBALL and DEFENDER. Had Baseball back in the 80's but had to relearn the joystick all over again (braindead). My wife and I play JOUST a lot as a "team-play" and Mario Bros. too - she's hooked on Bounty Bob as she always has been but I'm really digging GYRUSS. My Wico Joystick works so sweet (thanks "Ninermaniac") with it & Baseball too. Good Day - actually I'm heading back to the bedroom where I lay in a Big Ol' Bed filled with pillows. with a $1200.00 PillowTop Mattress, and play on our 50" Panasonic DLP HD TV. Can't wait to burn the MultiCart as I have a ROM for AUTOFIRE GYRUSS. I used to spend all my free time with my guitars and amps - recording on my Mac - but now I'm an Atari Nut all over AGAIN! It's good to be the king! Edited October 5, 2008 by strangedogs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninermaniac Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Well thank ya. I'd probably do the same thing (Lay around and play the 5200 all day) but I have gotten too many ribbings over it. Enjoy Gyruss! BTW: Have you tried Gyruss with a paddle controller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strangedogs Posted October 6, 2008 Author Share Posted October 6, 2008 no... don't have one - I guess I should eh? Where the heck would I find one compatible with the 5200? Can't wait for the autofire version when I GET THE MULTICART Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadow460 Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Lucky you. I spent all day on the bathroom floor and on my Lynx. Needless to say, my day was...disappointing. Darned Lynx! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doctorclu Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Do you know why the Rom of Gyruss doesn't work with Maxicart?Thanks Hmmm, I think I noticed that too. I wonder what was up with the multicart? Need to ask Atarimax on this. The paddles seem like a nice idea. Hope that multicart shows up, then you can join in the 5200 High Score Club.
