Kenwood Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 How do you arrange you Atari Carts Alphabetically By Company By favorite game By year released Rarity or just "Whatever" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph3 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I do mine by make, then alphabetical. I fit them anywhere on my wall. I am always rearrange them whenever I get new games in my collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red 5 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Alphabetically by company. Although the Atari red labels and Activision Blue labels are seperated from the others in their own stacks. Sears Telegames and Atari are mixed together but still alphabetical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsukasa Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 By part number, but that will probably change when my collection gets too big to fit in one box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red 5 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 An older picture (I just hit 250 ! ! ) but you get the idea. I'll take a new one tonight and repost... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I arrange them alphabetically by company (Atari always comes first though) and then by product number. If they have the same product number (i.e. label variations) then I arrange them by year. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christianscott27 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 by company in no particular order. 2600 carts by alpha is hard since there are so many case types...those damn m-networks and xonox carts! theres a side note, how you do deal with the m-network carts?

Breakpack Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Alphabetically,no matter the company.Makes it easier to keep track on my list.Of course,now Im buying boxed ones,so the fun stars all over again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shining slade Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 http://www.atariage.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=53414 I sort them like they are in this link. By company, alphabetically, copyright year. My M Network carts are sorted by where they were made. So far I've found 4 different countries they're made in; Singapore, Hong Kong, Phillipines, & the good ole USA I wonder if they made the white label versions in all 4 countries? Out of the 4 I think the Phillipines carts are harder to find than the rest. As for silver/gray labels, I consider them all the same color I'm not going to be that technical! They are sorted by copyright year though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap5750 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I did sort mine alphabetically. But after my Fireworks Marathon, they're sorted pretty much in no order...except for the way that I decided to play them. Vacation is coming in a couple of weeks. And reorganizing the collection will be a priority. Cap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeus Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I separate the carts by company and then sort them alphabetically. The M-network and INTV carts I store vertically as they don't stack well. My Uber rares (in my books 6 and higher) I keep in a 12 cart case that looks a lot like those tape cases but the spaces are made for cartridges. I also recently acquired an interlocking case that I'd like to use. Unfortunately, the one bookcase that I am allowed to use for my collection is now overflowing. Must work on the wife to allow me to buy another. (Mental note: buy lots of flowers, give many footrubs, etc> ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
video game addict Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Right now I have alphabetically by company, but have also separated the Red boxes from Silver & regular Atari color boxes, so I have three sections of Atari boxes lol, then all others alphabetically by company. Companies are not alphabetized though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nateo Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I just organize mine flat-out alphabetically. I dont feel like I have enough to sort them out by make yet, as I only have about 90 carts, if that makes any sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I sort mine by company alphabetically, and then alphabetically within company. Except for xonox and m-network that I store outside the main stacks for obvious reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuzenTCA Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I arrange mine by Company (In the Atari section I have the Silver label stack, the "game program" stack and the picture label stack. I ain't too much into label variation so I just stack them alphabetically even if I have doubles, yet if I have more than two of a cart they got into a large Tupperware bin dubbed "Doubles." I also stack carts together if they fit well, i.e. Activison, Absolute, and CBS. I recently acquired a collection of 60+ so they will have to be reorganized. I also have separate stacks for my 7800 carts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcprs1 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I arrange mine by company and then in alphabetical order. Like many of you, I do seperate the Atari carts by the labels. I just think it looks more organized that way. Plus, I tend to play the Red labels the most, therefore it is nice to have them in one big group. The only problem I run into is when I get a new game. It is such a pain to move everything around to fit them in. I usually wait until I get about 10-15 new ones to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATARIPITBULL Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I have my boxed games going Alphabetically company name first, then games alphabetically from each company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lauren Tyler Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Well since mine are in several containers, I manage to keep them stored neatly, but how do I organize them? The way a 10,000 pound gorilla would. Any way I want to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keilbaca Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I sort them by company but no particular order because i play the games a lot. They're sort-of organized, but once my shipments get in from home and from shining slade, i'll organize it nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the 5th ghost Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 For my boxed games I like to keep them sorted by company, games arranged by product catalog number. Loose carts, sorted by company, then alphabetized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Sigma Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 By rarity, then by company, then alphabetically. (Boxed games go someplace else; they're just dead-nuts alphabetical.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 My carts are grouped by company and then alphabetically by title. Companys are in order starting with Atari, then Activision, and then every other company in random order. I guess I have Atari and Activision first because I have the most carts from those companies. Boxed games are kept separately, as are duplicates. My first post. YAY! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
