Dantaipan Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 So, I've got quite a few 5200 titles now but still have a good amount to go. Given that I have the following games what should my next few purchases be (outside of repros and homebrews) Ballblazer? Zenji? SW?: Astrochase Berzerk Blueprint Buck Rogers Centipede Choplifter Countermeasure Congo Bongo Defender DigDug Dreadnaught Factor, the Frogger Galaxian Gorf Gyruss H.E.R.O Joust Jungle Hunt Kaboom! Kangaroo Keystone Kapers Mario Bros. Miner 2049er Missile Command Moon Patrol Mountain King Ms. Pac-Man Pac-Man Pengo Pitfall II Pole Position Popeye Q*Bert Qix River Raid RealSports Baseball RealSports Football RealSports Soccer RealSports Tennis Robotron 2084 Space Dungeon Space Invaders Space Shuttle Star Raiders Star Trek Super Breakout Super Cobra Vangaurd Wizard of War Zone Ranger P.S. if anyone has any dupes of titles not listed above please let me know.

sku_u Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 Of the games you don't have, IMO you should go for Frogger II. That's a great game to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian R. Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 You said no homebrews, but, the only answer I can possibly give you is KOFFI! Worth the money. I found it really neat to add a new, unique game to my collection - especially one as well-done as this. See my review in the store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dantaipan Posted May 4, 2003 Author Share Posted May 4, 2003 RE: homebrews - I guess my intention is to go for the original releases first then get into homebrews and repros. Frogger II would be a definite bonus to the collection but unfortunately it rarely comes up in auction and in my area 5200 stuff is very hard to come by in the wild (did they even sell this system in Canada?). I am always on the lookout though. I should also mention that Pitfall! and Megamania are on the way CO Sku_u. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angusjake Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 did they even sell this system in Canada No they didn't. I was an avid 2600 gamer and recall the anticipation I had when I read about the 5200 in the game magazines of the day. Finally I would have something to redeem the Atari name after my friends were getting Colecovisions! Alas, no such luck - the 5200 was never released in Canada. This was an early sign of trouble with Atari. I finally got to play one when a neighbour spent the summer in Georgia and brought one back - we played Centipede, PacMan and Countermeasure endlessly! 15 years later I finally got one - better late...
