Mendon Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 Saw this on eBay this morning and it looked very interesting. I know nothing about the Atari7800.com development lab or why if only 20 were built they are selling for the same price as a regular ProLine. But if nothing else, its a very nice looking stick. Anyway, here is the link, Black ProLine, and just wondered what your thoughts were on it. Mendon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaysmith2000 Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 Unique item, I guess I liked it enough that I decided to snag it. Thanks for the heads up Mendon! It's unfortunate the project was stopped. It would have been cool to get a "Vader" 7800 system. If the quality of the system was as good as the joystick I would have definitely purchased one.

bjk7382 Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 He has a second one up there also. If I had the cash I would get it, but here is the link for someone with the money to get it. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=3088099154 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassGuitari Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 A black Pro-Line joystick was pictured with the (black) Atari 2600, among the Trak-ball, Remote Joysticks, Space Age joystick, and Kid's Controller in the 1983 Atari catalog (CO21776 Rev A).

tyranthraxus Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 So I guess that auction partly explains the mystery of what happened to atari7800.com's closed store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, he has been selling all of the remaining stock on eBay and bidiots! for the last 3 weeks or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaysmith2000 Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 I'm not sure if he has put serial #'s on these or not, but he said in his e-mail I'm getting #002. Nifty looking item. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
