/vr/ - Retro Games

Old photo of my Atari collection. I now have a 7800 that looks beat to shit, NICE video on RF, buuuut the audio is pure static. Fucking nobody has documented the system, so beyond drawing a fucking circuit diagram myself after scanning the mainboard and re-engineering half the fucking system, I have no way to know what the fucking problem is.

Anywho, I was down with Atari since before Reagan was president. My favorite game as a kid was TOMCAT: THE F14 FLIGHT SIMULATOR. I have it for 7800 now, but the 2600 version was the jewel of my collection. Chopper Command was fucking rad, and my mom played the hell out of Cosmic Ark. I inherited my grandmother's 2600 and everything for it. It was the family Atari for decades, what everyone dicked around with while Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners were being prepared. I'm probably the only person in the whole family who would appreciate such a gift, and I'll never get rid of it.
