pseudografx Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 I also contacted him regarding overseas shipping, but the minimum order is way too much for the labels I need and he only has NTSC labels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeM_ Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 I must be getting old… Going through some bookshelves and came upon something I had completely forgotten about. 43 Atari games that I was not counting in my current inventory. Just about all of these were very common titles, or carts I never intend on playing (basic math, math Grand Prix, etc…) but it was a weird itch in the back of my head that I should have had some of these and couldn’t remember why I didn’t see them. This puts my 2600 cart collection up to 169, and caused me to have to reorganize my game drawers. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You got the numbered end label for Basic Math, that is not an easy one to find. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Havoc 2049 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 My two latest acquisitions. They are both in nice shape, but Dragonfire has some funky black tape residue on the front and back. I may try some Goo-Be-Gone on the back and see if that will get rid of it without destroying the printing on the box. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetmanUK Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Nine parcels arrived this morning. Some of these have been in the mail for a long time. Star Trek and Thunderground I bought due to recommendation on here, so thank you. I'll clean them all up and try them out later. 12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually use a tiny bit of isopropyl on a cotton bud/q tip ,or a tiny amount of fairy washing up liquid. Depending on what the box is made of. Sometimes it's just best to leave the price sticker/residue there rather than damaging the box. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great games🤙 After I realized, I can land and walk, I started to really like Desert Falcon🕹 Mountain King is pretty cool, you need to play it with sound to find... eh... what was it? Need to read the manual again and play it😊 I like that Congo Bongo label, it is the same as on my C64 cart🤗 Edited February 7 by DEANJIMMY 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KainXavier Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 So I stopped by a used game shop I hadn't been to in a while, and it turns out they have 2600 games now. Most of what they had was pretty common, but I picked up a nice-looking copy of Cosmic Ark for $3. They also had Karateka for the 7800 for $9 so I did what any sane person would do and picked up Intellivision Lives! for the PS2 instead. 2 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smart choice. I didn't want to commit to buying a cartridge of Karateka for the 7800, so I downloaded the ROM (don't ask where I got it) to my Gamestation Pro and took a look at it. It's worse than I remember. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
