| DanielBMS ::: Favorites 2007-11-27 01:35:42 Actually Pac-Man on Atari was disastrously unpopular. It too wound up in landfills along with the E.T. cartridges. __________________________________________________ | |
| gdbob2 ::: Favorites 2007-11-25 20:26:42 Actually it was E.T. cartridges that they buried in a landfill. The Pac-Mans always sold! :) __________________________________________________ | |
| DanielBMS ::: Favorites 2007-11-14 14:40:11 WTF? They don't even mention how millions of Atari Pac-Man cartridges were buried in a landfill. __________________________________________________ | |

| MrOik ::: Favorites 2007-06-05 20:38:49 I have a have 2 Quadrun games at home that is complete and its in Superb Condition I believe I purchase both for $200 bucks each in 1990. Now, they can reach $1,000 bucks each easily __________________________________________________ | |
| delfmeek ::: Favorites 2007-06-05 20:29:22 Absolutely! It's a great site! I check it regularly and it shows that there is still so much love for the Atari machines! __________________________________________________ | |
| MrOik ::: Favorites 2007-06-05 20:28:13 For more information of Atari Homebrew games for the 2600, 5200, 7800, The Atari Computers (such as the 400 and 800), The Lynx and The Jaguar, go to Atariage dot (.) com. y'all will fall in love with it. __________________________________________________ | |
| delfmeek ::: Favorites 2007-06-05 20:28:00 I thought the prices were high as well. But, it was SO COOL to see this on Antique Roadshow. While everybody is wondering what that ugly painting is worth, we have some REAL merchandise on the show. __________________________________________________ | |
| MrOik ::: Favorites 2007-06-05 20:23:55 Well, the Atari 2600 made its debut in October of 1977 (not 1978) and it lasted although the 80's and finally till 1992 (not 1983). The real original name for the 2600 was the Video Computer System (VCS). The reason why they change the name (reason being) that the model of the system was called "CX-2600" Even if it was stopped by mass producing the VCS in 1992 the system continues to live on. Personal developers are making "Homebrew" (There own games) and selling them. __________________________________________________ | |
| videogameknowitall ::: Favorites 2007-06-05 10:52:55 I thought that the prices that they mentioned in the video were way to high. The $10 to $30 range for a system sounds about right. Video game titles should go for no more than $2-$3, but yes for "rare" games like the ones mentioned above I would expect to pay much more than $2. __________________________________________________ | |
| MrOik ::: Favorites 2007-05-27 18:45:59 $100-$200 for a Atari 2600 game console? Not likely. If your really searching, you can get one for $10-$30 bucks no problem. __________________________________________________ | |
