Blue Ember Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 I contacted a lady about some games she had for sale on craigslist, she had 131 Atari 2600 games and I was curious as to what titles they were. When I called her she said they weren't like the normal games you get at the store because they once belonged to her Grandmother that passed away who made them while she was working for Texas Instruments. Well this sounded really odd so I asked for pics and what I got was just weird (Looked a lot like prototype EEPROM chips with a special cart so you could plug and play them. So I decided to buy the lot of them and I have no idea as to what they are, there are actually 138 of them and they work just fine when plugged into the socket on the cart. There aren't a whole lot of rare titles aside from rescue terra 1 and some mystique titles. Also there are a couple I have never heard of, but it might just be the wrong name or something. I payed a bit cause there were so many and i'm hoping I didn't get ripped off. Let me know what you guys think on these and what a fair price would be. Here are the Pics: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atari181 Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 It looks as though you have some EPROMs, probably not any Protos(hard to tell much by the Pics) I would pay around $40-50 for a lot of this size. The Pac Man cart was just modified to play the EPROMS. Kind of neat to have in a collection, but nothing too rare or expensive. If your into playing them it is a nice lot of games, with lots titles. Nice Find! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Ember Posted November 16, 2011 Author Share Posted November 16, 2011 I figured that is what it might be when I got home and started playing and examining them closer, they are all Texas instruments chips so I figure she might have burned a bunch of games for herself, i've just never seen anything like it before.

Rom Hunter Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 What are the titles you never heard of and what's on screen when you play them? Good chance I can help you out identifying them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
