Wife made me a Pitfall! T-Shirt. I love it

The outside was pretty dusty, inside was dusty but not as bad. I have a few questions. Should I open it up and air dust it or even get some q tips and alcohol to clean things up a bit before connecting it to power? Also, I imagine if I get this thing hooked up and running, I'll eventually get bored with it. Do I have anything of value here?

Hello all. I finally found my old games, and have the new 7800+ ordered to play them on. I still have my old VCS, are there any places online or recommend users that can ‘fix’ the old machines? I’ll get a pic of it soon, it’s in a different building than these were stored in.

I have absolutely zero knowledge about this thing, and before I plug it in incorrectly and burn it by accident, some Dos and Donts would be very much appreciated!

I see people posting unbelievable deals all the time on here.... I go to thrift shops weekly for some 30 years with no luck. Finally found one. $3.35 for a working Atari, Flashback joystick and 6 (good) games. (Pac-man isn't that bad.)

My last great score was in '84 at Billy's rummage sale when I got his Atari for $10 and games for $.25 each.

That’s our favorite game to play together.

It's actually really cool that you leave the Atari on while using it, and when you change games, pushing in the dial resets it so you can quickly swap between games.

It's the most complete collection of pirated games I've ever seen. I've seen a few of these posted online but not as many as this. There was originally black foam inside but it all disintegrated so I had to take that out.

I found this sealed copy of E.T. in an abandoned, collapsed house in the woods 😎

Found at a local thrift shop, it came with 2 controllers, cords, and 2 games. Besides 1 of the controllers being broke, everything works perfectly!

Also, on a previous post about the Sega Genesis Arcade Power Stick, a user asked if it worked for the 2600 and I couldn’t test it out. Now that I can, I can fully verify it does work on the 2600 and now I don’t know if I can ever use the original Atari joystick again.

Are any these worth anything? Thanks guys

First atari 2600 cartridge i plan and make 100% by hand. And the best thing is that it actually works.

First time owning, playing, touching smelling or even seeing one in person.
