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!
