Red 5 Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Was browsing eBay and saw this. I thought I knew about all the oddball Atari stuff, but never saw this. Was it ever released? Anyone have one? (CPU? Wonder?) any info on it? The inter webs have limited info... http://www.ebay.com/itm/ATARI-CONSOLETTE-WALL-JUKEBOX-FLYER-BROCHURE-RARE-1977-/400235332955 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+frankodragon Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Looks they did make jukeboxes but overseas in Amsterdam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 what's pictured in that flyer would be described as a 'wallbox'... a remote control of sorts, for the single Jukebox located elsewhere. But a lot of people confuse them with being *the* jukebox. As if the little thing on the wall held any records and provided any amplification.

+save2600 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 So who made these for Atari? Rock-ola? Seeburg? Can't imagine Atari providing 49 slightly different variations of the same song... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro Rogue Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 These were all done by a French company Atari also licensed to manufacture their coin-ops over there. There were a whole series of Atari branded jukeboxes through them, I have all the flyers. There's a bunch up there right now in fact, just do a search for "atari jukebox."
