zanza Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 There are been some discussions around these wonderful toy and despite the pros and cons, I've ordered somw of them even if I was afraid of their NTSC's probability I've received the lot yesterday and make a quick connection to test it rapidly. And I've not been disapointed. I can connect it on my VCR or on my front connection of TV, I got the same sharp image, not washed out, chickens in Freeway are clearly visible and I even see the shots in Atlantis (or maybe I did'nt understand the problem encountered by some users) Anyway I had to test Atlantis both on my 2600 and on this Activision10in1 to confirm what I suspect ----> This things seems to work much better on PAL systems instead of NTSC's (I was afraid of the opposite since I bought them in USA) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geogray Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 Cool! Glad you were not disappointed. My 4 year old LOVES ours. He loves to play Freeway and shoot the spiders. I do have the Atlantis problem, but, hey, makes it more interesting! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosmicJoke Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 I have one and I don't have the Atlantis problem. In fact, I think it works really well! I think it was well worth the $13-$14 I paid for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zanza Posted April 13, 2002 Author Share Posted April 13, 2002 My 18 month old hasn't really understand how to make it work (except for power on/off which lihgts the LED ) but soon she'll love it for sure. I can tell you that my 2600 clone with some games in it has Atlantis and I can't see the bullets in it, and compared to the Activion Handheld, the quality of image on my clone is a piece of crap. Hopefully I have some genuine 2600 (Jr, 4 and 6) but all with RF out, and compared the Activision has a far better crisp image too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
