Does it get hotter than Atari hot?

I have the namco version - its great. Perfect (as far as i can tell/remember) arcade reproductions.
 
This is a pretty cool device - I got it for my birthday. It will be fun, when my son gets older, for him to see what games his daddy played when he was young.

It's difficult for me to control Pong, Circus Atari and Breakout with the joystick... I used the Atari paddles for those games.
 
Sweet.... Yar's Revenge.

WalMart.com is out of stock so I may have to hit the B&Ms and look around. Anyone seen em there?
 
I'll sell you mine....rather my wife's.

She bought it on impulse for me...... but my idea of "console" ain't this.... so it's been used a few times, but in like-new cond.


Just toss me a PM if interested......
 
Try your local Ebgames for these. I saw a couple there last week. I'm trying to decide between these or a MAME machine for my step-dad for xmas.... Tough choice!
 
Target has the Namco one for $14 all this week (Nov 23-29).

Couldn't find it online, but the pic in the flyer shows PacMan, DigDug, Galaxian, Rally-X and another I can't quite make out... "Bocco...<something>"

it's a 5-in-1

...how bout a dreamcast? gamestop has them used for $30 -- or gamecrazy has a "buy $50 in games for the dc, get the dc free, deal"

if you are computer savvy, you might find several emulators somewhere on the www.
You'd need a cd burner and decent burning sw

 
GameStop has a Namco/Atari Bundle for ~$40. I got the Atari one last year. A little bit heavier than the real Atari 2600 joystick. You have to put in some batteries. It was kinda cool for 30 mins. Then it got boring... 🙁

BOSCONIAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Best Buy and CircuitCity have a bunch of these for about 10 to 15 bucks (NW of La). If you like retro games, I recommend a JoyStick or Superstick. They have about 100 to 150 games for about 40 to 50 bucks. The games are old 8 bits/Atari games. My nephew loves it.

I admit I had never played bosconian before I had this joystick. Its actaully probably the deepest, most fun game out of the whole lot. Each game lasts a remarkably long time, too(compared to say, pacman or rally x).
 
Damn I was hoping this was an original controller, one of mine isnt working so well 🙁 and yes I still play Atari 2600. It is amazing how fun the games are when drunk.
 
Funniest part of this deal is that you can get the Atari Emulator with ALL ATARI GAMES EVER MADE for free online.

~wnied~
 
This one (Atari) is also $14.00 at Target this week, but they were OOS at my Target. 🙁 There is also an Intellivision one with 10 games on it that I picked up at Save-A-Lot Foods in So Cal this week for $9.99. I love old games! 🙂

Or, even better, M.A.M.E.. Good luck on finding the ROMs. Could be best to lurk in Usenet and wait for a flood.

Just stopped at best buy, couldn't find any, neither could a couple of employees. Then I got home I searched for it on BB website, superstick doesn't turn up any matches, and joystick only seems to turn up normal joysticks. Perhaps BB doesn't carry it, only CC? Could you perhaps provide details (like product and company name) or a link to BB site if they have it? Thanks.
 
You Guys ever see the one like this but it is NINTENDO !!!???

It is called Xtreme Box. It has 75 Nintendo classics. Looks new, 2 controllers and even has this ratty ass hand Gun for duck hunt. My gf bought it for me about a month ago and isn't giving it to me until Xmas !!! Well I guess it isn't like the system or games are gonna get old 🙂 they are already decades ago.
I can't wait !!! Mario, Contra, Duck Hunt, Kung Fu and TONS MORE !!!
I think it is illegal or something. Only saw about 2 or 3 on ebay and it was sold at this teeny little chinese electronics store.
I AM PSYCHED !!!!
Later all
