ATARI WAS THE SHIT . . .


Recommended Posts

Tripinchick, when I get home Im gonna go to my attic to and pull it out...lol I gotta know now!

I wonder if I can get new paddles for it though. I used it soo much that I think the little circle pad and buttons on the sides are all worn out. I couldnt get enough of that game...lol

Atari! I still have my 2600 with over 100 games. River Raid, Pitfall, and well i just stop here or I'd be going on forever. I thought i was the only one that took off the covers off the joysticks. Why can't all those new systems have joysticks like Atari? All the buttons on the new control pads make me stressed out.

And does any one know that game with the bombs and you have to use the paddles not the joystick with? Does it ever end and how much faster can it possibly go if it doesn't?

COLECOVISION baby!!! That was the real shit, before Sega Genesis and Playstation.

Do you think that kids today have any idea what we had 20 years ago? Will kids 20-25 years from now look back and think that Playstation 2 and Dreamcast were absolute jokes? I'm scared to even think about what we'll have 20 years from now. I see completely interactive 3-D chambers which you walk into and you'll see other players in the chamber: G-Money, Eggmok, Misskittie, and Vinylgrl all battling each other to see who wins the game. All this will fit in the corner of your living room for a mere $5000 (which considering inflation might be $3000 in today's market).

Sorry, I'm just in this wierd where will I be in 20 years phase.

<<<PEACE>>>

Let's not forget the Colecovision next generation: ADAM

And the Odyssey was the next gen to Intellivision. My Intellivision still works fine (paddles and all) with a big stack of games, unfortunately it's at my parents place 10 hours away. Anyone up for a road trip? I'd freek for a little Keystone Kops on my dad's 54" screen.

btw - you can pick up all the old consoles as well as games for them at Multimedia 1.0 on St. Marks place.

without a doubt . . .

i always pulled off the rubber covering on the joystick. remember the paddles, for games like pong and warlord . . .

i was the bomb at combat, especially the tanks! that was shit was phat, you had like 20 different versions on one cartridge. i think it was game 7 where the tanks had the bullets that would bounce all over the place. . .

how bout asteroids and space invader. on asteroids i would thrust across the screen and see how long i would last. i always hated those little ufo's that would come out and start blasting before the next stage, those fuckin bastards . . .

ATARI was the shit, F everything else including that stupid intellivision . . .

There was a robot thing that actually went with the original Nintendo system...

Commodore 64 was my favorite all time gaming system!

Kittie - I'll do anything! smile.gif
