I am looking for a Christmas gift for my father this year. He was talking about how he grew up playing his Atari 2600 and loved playing Golf on there. I was debating on getting him an Atari 2600+, but I can't seem to find Golf online anywhere. Does anyone have any recommendations on where I can find this game? I'm sure it would be a nostalgia trip for him.

Currently Atari.com only delivers the Atari 7800+ to the USA. How do I get an Atari 7800+ delivered to Canada? How can someone get an Atari 7800+ if they live outside North America.

I do not trust Amazon.ca vendors like this one because it is clear they do not have the product.

.A few years ago I purchased an Atari Fb9 with included the wireless controllers IMO they're terrible and not nearly as well built or responsive as the originals. Of course it‘s been many years since I’ve held one.
Anyways, I know the original joystick will work with the new Atari but will they work with flashback consoles.

Brand new game for the Atari VCS. Is it any good? You may need a coffee to watch this.

Is there a list anywhere of the games that are referenced in the mini game remixes? There are tons I don't know. I only really put any time in with the 2600.

Did anyone with the physical version (PS/NSW) had the chance to give it a look? Already having the standard copy of the game I'm unsure about just getting the DLC bundle or the new AA50tACEE disc version

The Atari 5200 was a flop, but some of the games where really good. Here is one of them. https://youtu.be/fVvp3SPqp2g

Does anyone have any information on the original MSRP for "Blackjack" for Atari 2600?

I'm having an issue with my modded composite Atari 2600 (4-switcher) where the sound is continuously sustaining until another sound plays. This is happening with every game. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Got my kid the Atari Pocket Player Pro (link for reference) but found that our rechargeable AA batteries won't work because the batteries are 1.2v each.

Has anyone seen a good USB power pack or other option, that might be able to integrate well into the handheld device, so we don't have a battery pack just dangling?

Apologies if this is a repeated question, I’ve searched around and can’t find a straightforward answer.

I’ve acquired an Atari 1040ST and a 520ST.. I’m trying to set it up with an old TV that has RF input. Should this work with the one RF lead from Atari to TV?

The Atari’s both power on ok, but I’m not getting anything on the TV. Does it need another lead to function?

TIA

And i wanted to ask for some 2600 and 7800 games that are a must haves before I buy one (preferably games with european release). Thanks in advance.

Hi, I’m interested in the 2600+ and have a few UK games. Amazon reviews suggest they don’t work well / at all on the system. Does anyone have any experience of this? Have any firmware updates fixed it? I can’t seem to find any news

Think I might pick one up for pc emulation purposes. I don't have the 2600+ yet because I have no interest in collecting physical cartridges.

Qualitywise the non wireless CX40+ was fine so it should be good.

I've been thinking about light guns and the fact that Atari never released one for the 2600. It’s somewhat bizarre considering that Magnavox had released a light gun back in the '70s! While I know there was the XG-1 and the game Sentinel that could utilize it, I can’t help but wonder what it would have been like if Atari had launched a light gun alongside the Vader edition in 1982.

Imagine if the gun was designed to look like Han Solo's DL-44 blaster. That would have been an easy sell! It could have been bundled with a simple carnival-style shooting game for two players. In this game, one player could control a target shaped like a TIE fighter with a joystick while the other uses the light gun.

The shooter would have a limited number of shots, and there could be sound effects for firing and an explosion when hitting the target. Additionally, features like a timer, some music, and difficulty levels could be implemented, where the shooter has a reduced number of shots per round, making each shot count even more. Thoughts?

Hello! We are working on a project focuses on a retro product that we’ve never had the chance to use due to our age.

In this context, we’d like to hear your thoughts about the "Original Oldschool Atari 2600 Video Computer System".

Did you ever encounter any issues with it? For example, were there moments when you thought, "It would have been better if it had/it was..."? Do you think there were aspects, such as the material quality or technical features, that needed improvement? Considering today’s technology and expectations, how could this product be enhanced or reimagined?

Your insights would be incredibly valuable for our project!

Combat for example. Left tank will shoot but i cant see the bullet. Right tank doesnt even load fully. You see like 4 pixels.

For the rest of my games i cant barely get any to load to a playable state.

This console I bought is in bad shape. Case is cracked like someone threw it. The guts have "good" written on it. Showing past repair. Screw posts are missing.

Idk what to do.

I was thinking about the 5200 controller and had a 'what if' style question: What if the Atari 5200 had an Intellivision-style 16-way directional pad instead of its joystick? And just for fun, what if a CX78 had the same directional pad? Whether this change was done before the original release or is something someone could do now just for the sake of it (I mean, people have added rotary dials to the Jaguar, so why not?), thoughts?

Please help, I really need to know the name of this game. It was an atari game where you'd learn how to spell. There was a round character with legs that changed length according to your performance. I think you could also do math but I'm not sure. I probably played this game between 1989 and 1993 (that's a rough estimate) and it was in Spanish but l think it might have been adapted from another game That's all I can remember really. I'll be super grateful if you could help me out 🙏🏽🙏🏽

Hi all,

I‘m the one who couldn‘t figure out how to get 2 player games working on the Atari 50th Anniversary Collection.

I got that sorted out but am really perplexed with the two players set up for Berzerk the arcade version. The 2nd player‘s screen is upside down!!

I get where this comes from. This was because of when players would sit down to play video games, table top style, way back in the day. But why, OH WHY, is this the version Atari decided to port to this collection?? I want to play this with my husband so bad and this sucks!

Please someone out there tell me there‘s a way to change this. Thank you!!

I just got the complete Atari 50th Anniversery Collection for my Nintendo Switch. I absolutely love it, but am disappointed in the lack of two player options….or maybe I‘m missing something.

In the Flashback Series, in order to play two players, one can just divide a Joycon in two using the proper attachment and changing the grip in settings. This seems only possible for a handful of games in the 50th Anniversery, and even then I couldn‘t figure it out.

And for classic two players, like 2600 Combat or Outlaw, there are two player options but no way to play with one controller. Will a second pair of Joycons work for the second player (and third and fourth players with further Joycons)?

I‘m a bit new to the whole Switch thing so forgive my ignorance.

Thanks all!

Do y'all think I can contact them? I would accept making fewer profits even I just like their Logo lmao it looks cool.
