One Sears light sixer got across the pond

The more I get involved on AtariAge (on the forums, that's all) the more I get interested in the good old VCS.

Nothing new here, I was interested before, but... The VCS is an old system and never reached in Europe the following / Classic system fame it can get in the USA.

In fact, most retrogamers I know aren't interested, doesn't want to own one and doesn't even dare to try playing some games.

So I was casually collectiong some carts here and there.

And grew more interested in the system, until I decided to make the next step and found an NTSC system.

Well, I don't plan to have all the variations that exist, so I though "hey, why not getting a sixer AND a Sears at the same time?" Because if I have to search and find one, why not picking something that is totally unknown in Europe?

And I did.



Here it is... with the lil bits needed for a good working in SECAM country.
The official VCS AC adapter on top of its European counterpart. I don't know why it's twice as big.

The lil bits on the system is your standard phono to F connector, provided by the seller.
But, oops, Europe use the F connector for satellite only! Thanksfully there is a F connector to Euro RF connector.
I'll later add an AV mod to the system anyway.

And the games I got with it :


Classic, yet as they are old programs, they aren't that common in Europe (remember, the Atari VCS was released in PAL version in 1980). And anyway, I need to feed that baby isn't it?

Even if I can add some more recent releases :


(yeah, quick'n'dirty setting, but I don't have much TVs able to take RF NTSC)
