horseboy Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 Could this have been made an official AtariAge.com member only game? Sure, if they wanted to sell 1/4 as many copies as they probably did, but I don't think that is the goal. 2 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/167142-halo-2600-pre-order/page/6/#findComment-2070481 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The carts are all tested before they are sent out. If it doesn't work I'd be glad to exchange it for another, just send me a PM. ..Al Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/167142-halo-2600-pre-order/page/6/#findComment-2071328 Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamers.gathering Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Like I said I have tried my other games and they work fine, just didnt know if it might be a compatibility issue with the 6 switch version as compared to the 4 switch or is there might be any other little thing. Thanks. Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/167142-halo-2600-pre-order/page/6/#findComment-2071360 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoyx Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 (edited) My cart arrived. Immediately had to leave for work, so I haven't tested it yet. Lesson learned: Always have an Atari available at work... or any other place I frequent.

moycon Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 That is very sad, I have no words.. ..Al You can rest easy due to the fact today I submitted my final counter offer to the buyer and refused to even read the counter offer she sent to that, which means very soon I will know for certain if I am moving or not. She either accepts or doesn't. Either way, the unpacking of my stuff is going to be happening very soon and as soon as I come across a 2600 I plan on diving into Halo 2600 the way Atari God intended people to...on the real hardware using an official joystick.

ifkz Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 I got my copy a day ago and yesterday I dug out my 4 switch to play a bit. The video looked awful, much worse than my perfect looking 2600 games, so I fired it up on my Colecovision Atari expansion module and it looks perfect. Odd. Great game!

PirateRehm Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Awesome! Mine came yesterday but I was working late. My kids wanted to play it and I guess the tone in my voice steered them clear of it until I get the first game. Can't wait to play it. Magnet and pin were great additions.

PAC-MAN PRIME Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 My copy came today. Thanks for the fast shipping, Al! Unfortunately I am among the group of poor saps that can't access our consoles to play it right now..., but the new label looks GREAT! I actually can't make up my mind if I like the one from CGE or this one better. They're both equally awesome. Thanks for the cool magnets and button too!

PAC-MAN PRIME Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Here are the two label variations. The black one is from CGE, the gray one is the one available here. New school and retro - both equally awesome. The more I look at them though, the more I am preferring the art on the gray label. I really like how you can see the Halo in the sky.

Red 5 Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 I am never leaving home again. Can you guys please stop doing all the really fun and cool stuff when I'm away? Damn you all! I may be at the bottom of the waiting list, but at least I am on the waiting list... but I am not a patient man.
