Rob Mitchell Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 A guy named Ron has made a graphic of the Printed Circuit Board of the Atari 2600 4 switch as well as other classic game and computer consoles. He has made the 2600 PCB a work of art with colors of the resistors and all the components. Here's the web reference for what he has done thus far: http://www.mainbyte.com/motherboards/mb_graphics.html Here's the 2600 pcb: http://www.mainbyte.com/atari2600/atari2600_mb.jpg Check it out! I wish I had a glossy print of this one and the Vectrex logic board too! Worthy of framing! Rob Mitchell, Atlanta, GA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djmips Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Those are super. I've always had a certain amount of awe when it comes to printed circuit boards. Good job! Something like that would make a great basis for diagramming some of the 2600 mods like adding composite and/or stereo output. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Those are pretty damn cool, I saw the new Vectrex one that he did recently, and then took a look at the others on his site. Definitely would be nice to print those out on a nice color printer and hang them up. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Mitchell Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 Definitely would be nice to print those out on a nice color printer and hang them up. Yeah .. That's what I am planning to do to both the 2600 and the Vectrex PCB prints. Rob Mitchell, Atlanta, GA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Video Posted December 18, 2004 Share Posted December 18, 2004 I streight up jacked me a copy of it. I'm going to print it out and put it on the wall just for kicks. wonder how long it'll be befor someone eyes it and says "What's that?". I'd probably crap my pants if someone said "Oh, a 2600 PCB" LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Mitchell Posted December 18, 2004 Author Share Posted December 18, 2004 BTW: A friend and I did some X-ray films of some video game consoles .. 2600, Vectrex, Odyssey2, Bally Astrocade. Cool images! Rob Mitchell, Atlanta, GA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
