I'd suggest buying an 8K board and burning a Hack'Em EPROM. If you really want to get fun, remove the label from a Pac-Man cart, replace the guts with your new board, and carefully seal it all up. Then if someone jokes about how terrible 2600 Pac-Man is, you can show 'em yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari-Jess Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 I think its more that he wants a lab loaner rather than a proto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickybaby Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 We wouldn't mind some cheap protos either.. I don't think anyone would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferris Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 lol you can always print up a "lab loaner" cartridge label and affix it over pac-man combat or et if you just want a conversation piece Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ismokeblunts Posted July 31, 2005 Author Share Posted July 31, 2005 by decent price i mean, not 500 dollars, lol. a year ago i saw alot of lab loaners swap around for a little over the 100 range, some lower than that on ebay. now i never see them. i do have money to throw down on these things. i just don't need to pay a ridiculous amount for one cartridge. and no, a fake just won't do it for me...
