New Guy here, I Love the site so far!

 

I grew up in the late 70s early 80s I always liked the Atari alot, I was about 5 or 6 when my parents got an Atari 2600 (about 1982-1984ish)

I never bothered to play my sisters nintendo NES very much, I moved on to other interests...now 30 some years later I'm back into it!

 

 We had 8 games and I still have them,

Target Fun - 27 telegames

Pacman

Space invaders

Street Racer

Home Run

Football

Math Grand Prix

Barn Storming   (I really love the old Activision Games)

 

My friend accross the street (in the 80s)  had a colecovision and I rember the games he had were really pretty cool

Sir Lancelot

Spy Hunter

Congo Bongo

Qbert

and a few others I dont rember 

 

I was just at a flea market and picked up , congo bongo for $5 , Qbert for $2, and Atari's Superman for $1   (It would be my luck that spyhunter & sir lancelot are friggin rare & expensive.)

 

About a week ago I dug out my families old light 6 switch "Sears Tele-Games - Video Arcade" i got it working again by cleaning the game contacts with a q-tip & rubbing alchohol

The system works really good on an  old tube type TV my wife had since highschool.

I used a coax to RCA adapter from radio shack and it works well.

 

I have some questions about the system  but I'll ask them in another post so the info does not get burried in a "new guy" post.....thanks for having me!

-Jason
