Starfire Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 I'm new here but looking to get a junior or maybe a 7800 to start off a collection, would love to find a lot with games, sticks, paddles, etc. Own a 1200XL, had it since new, but never had one of the classic systems. Would love to have at least Defender, Yar's, Bezerk, Atlantis, and maybe Solaris. Must admit not looking to spend tons, one of the reasons I want to get into 2600/7800 since it's a decently cheap system to get into. Doesn't have to be a super nice system, just something to get started on. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFL Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 I'm guessing you're in the US? If not, I'm back in the UK in a couple of days and have a spare with some games for the PAL region... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starfire Posted December 14, 2013 Author Share Posted December 14, 2013 Yeah I'm in the US, kind of leaning towards a 7800 so it's kind of a 2 for 1 deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 I've had a Jr and it was a mild disappointment. It doesn't stand up to use like the older models. If you're thinking of getting one because it's cheaper then I'd think again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starfire Posted December 14, 2013 Author Share Posted December 14, 2013 Well too late Got a Junior with 25 games (Pengo also which seems a bit rarer) 2 sticks and 2 paddles for $35 seems pretty good for an fleabay find, no one bidded so if it dies I won't be out to much, unit is tested though (at least claims to be). Will mod in a s-video. Still might be on the lookout for a 7800 and any game suggestions you all might have. Got these with the lot: Pengo Freeway Laser Blast Pitfall Robot Tank Stampede Circus Football Phoenix Pole Position Qbert Frogger Bowling Speedway II Codebreaker Berzerk Defender Asteroids Bowling PacMan Video Checkers Super Challenge Football Lock n' Chase Familiar with most of them Picked up a Yars Revenge (love that game) and might get a copy of Solaris and Atlantis also. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
