Atari Teenage Riot @ Echoplex 4/16/12

When I got into collecting games, I never thought I'd easily get this many boxed Atari games.

 

Jinks - Complete. Pity it's a crap game.

The Activision Decathlon - bought sealed, complete, cart label still so minty it's like the mint room at Celestial Seasonings.

Asteroids - bought sealed, complete. Upgraded my cart and manual copy.

Canyon Bomber - Complete, still has JC Penny price sticker on flap.

Defender - Complete. Upgraded my cart only copy.

Dig Dug - Complete.

Lock 'n' Chase - Box and cart, manual missing.

Megamania - Complete, rarer blue label cart inside. Upgraded my cart only, horrid label copy.

Moon Patrol - Complete.

Pole Position - Complete.

Robot Tank - Bought sealed, complete.

Skiing - Bought sealed, complete, rarer blue label cart inside.

Star Raiders - Complete. Upgraded my cart only copy.

Surround - Gatefold box, complete.

Epyx Summer Games - Complete.

Donor machine. This board actually has traces that are peeling off the back - and that's before I've had at it with an oven and iron.

The only video game systems I own. Atari 2600 (2), 5200, 7800 and 300+ games. I prefer games that only take one button to play. No cheat codes, secret levels or button sequence combinations, just simplicity.

This is the view you don't really want to see intentionally but a lot of people wind up facing.

 

Atari designed a neat new game system in 1983 called the 5200 SuperSystem. It was more like a computer internally (and there were plans to add a keyboard and so forth but they vaporized) and with an adaptor it could play 2600 games. There were two issues to the joystick people brought up; the first being that it doesn't center so you constantly have to tend it -- the second is more important:

 

The controller was highly unreliable and subject to simply not working suddenly.

 

It's more than just urban legend that a 5200 controller, still unused in its packaging, can be defective. So as a result controllers like the one above required replacement or surgery to function. The two known issues were that either the keypad would stop working or the Start/Pause/Reset button bar across the top would stop working. The above unit had the former issue, which I was able to remedy. However, it grew the latter issue upon being put back together again, from a cracked trace on that flexible circuit board.

 

Replacement parts are available online but I happily did not have to resort to that. Having a second controller that worked even less (likely from dirty or misaligned contacts), I was able to cobble together one completely functional controller.

I was so confused because I found an old atari with way to many controllers.

Amazing stuff: custom-built (obviously), 3h battery life, ethernet, card reader. No wifi, though... ;(
