Chris++ Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 "My Mike?" That sounded gay. That was a typo. It was supposed to read "my ol' pal Mike," but someone distracted me at work while I was typing. Anyway, buy the case from my gay friend Mike.

Lemmi Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 just got the atari hardcase today i love it and now i have 8 hardcases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gulag picture radio Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 8 hardcases for the 2600, or 8 including ones for other systems? I've only got three for the 2600, an N64 one, and some others I'm forgetting. The rest are softcases that they were blowing out of GameStop for like $2 a few months back. Wish that I could have gotten more of those. Oh yeah, I've got my original Odyssey in a hard case too. Lot of kid slobber on it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lot of kid slobber on it too. 8 altogether, my list is above, this is my first atari case tho, ive dug out the 6 switch and im looking for games to keep with it im not into the soft cases that much but the one for my Treamcast isnt to bad. i like them for handhelds tho, i want one of those big lynx ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gulag picture radio Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 You have a Treamcast?!?!?! You DOG! I forgot about the handheld cases. There are so many, aren't there? I mentioned some of the novelty ones that I have for GameBoy, and am really happy that the tradition continues even today with the SP. There's a little case that you can get that has an imprint of the buttons and the D-pad on it. I've got a pouch or two for the Lynx - wish that I had a case for the honkin' Lynx I! The only case I've found for GameGear is the big suitcase model, with the molded and flocked interior. Pretty good, but the vacuform plastic inside is the kind that tends to crack. I found that a Sega Nomad fits pretty well in there - was there ever an official case for the Nomad? Really what I think is cool is the aluminum cases that you can get for basically all the current systems. They're far too expensive, but they do make it look like you should handcuff it to your arm like a spy making a ransom drop! I also dig the G-pak (I think) cases which are nylon cases made to accomodate both the system and its corresponding flip-up LCD screen. Those are pretty rad, but I can't really afford the bag - let alone the screen! What blows my mind is that the cases are often of similar quality to expensive cases that I've bought for camera and flmmaking gear at many times the price. A lot of the stuff is extra-strudy since it's made to be mangled by children. I actually use an "armored" GB SP case to cart around my MiniDisc recorder!

gulag picture radio Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Oh, I keep forgetting to give a shout out to your "HOLY CRAP THAT'S A HUGE COLLECTION" series of photos. OMG That's incredible. While I'd love to have it all , I guess that the one that I'd really like is a Jaguar as I've never seen any of the games for it. Really I'm more interested in the Virtual Light Show thingy built in. I've always been totally fascinated by sound reactive devices like that. I've got an Atari Video Music, but the Jaguar would seem to make my life more complete somehow. Really niec cases for all that TG-16 stuff. I guess that would come right after the Treamcast as far as stuff of yours that I'd totally covet.

MichaelJMcKernan Posted August 31, 2004 Author Share Posted August 31, 2004 You know, and i'm being serious here, the reason I pick up stuff sometimes that I have no need for is the reaction of selling it to someone who really LOVES IT. If I would have passed that up. We wouldn't have the Lemster's happiness here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichaelJMcKernan Posted August 31, 2004 Author Share Posted August 31, 2004 Ummmmm...I meant I had no need for the suitcase... Your reaction was like a thousand angels, kissing a rainbow, and handing out lollipops. Anyway, I'm glad your enjoying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
