My friend Stephen with a boxed Atari 2600!

My Atari 2600 went missing about ten years ago. Then, on vacation in Ukiah, California, I stumbled upon a whole ton of Atari stuff which I snapped up for a bargain price. Then, right after coming home from that trip, my dad called. He'd been moving into a new house, and while cleaning up a long-forgotten closet, he found my 2600 and the game cartridges. I went without one for a decade, and now I've got two different 2600 models and 78 games.
So I modded my Xbox 360 wireless controller with the 2600 joystick running through it so I can play many of the great XBLA games the way I played similar games while growing up on the Atari 2600.
Every day at sunset as the border-crossing between India and Pakistan is closed there is a ceremony on each side of the border. Indan women ran back and forth with their flag and the border guards marched. The crowed cheered as if it were a sports game. Afterwards these girls rushed to us in order to get pictures of Eva, one of my fellow travellers who has long blond hair and bright skin color.

An ebay-purchase in quite good condition. Consistent yellowing of course. But a good base for a Gotek floppy-emulator. ;-)
I used to play this game at the RIT game room. A vertical scrolling game from Atari where players ride innertubes down rapids, throw cans at alligators, lots of fun!

One of my hobbies is collecting retro-computers, focusing on computers made by Atari. I have currently have eleven different Atari-models, three from Commodore and one other model in my collection.
This is my Atari 1040 STF, the second Atari I got. I bought it second hand in 1992 - 1993. It is upgraded to 2.5 MB RAM and it came with a Megafile 30, a harddisk with a whopping 30 MB capacity. It was my main computer for many years, I was using the other for running a BBS called "The Dark Side of the Moon".
Archiving my very 1st teenage steps with the Atari 800XL in the form of a folder full of code, sketches & references (all created between 1988-1991)... I started with writing pure hex code, then taught myself the 6502 flavour of Assembler (only learned Z80 before) but then got more & more into game design, icons & demo scene activities (as coder, gfx and chiptunes & co-organizer) and started building several tools & games (incl. The Brundles, a commercial Lemmings clone for the 8-bit Atari in '93)
Before the operation.
Atari had a stye on his eyelid for 2 months now. The doctor decided on draining it, but he wanted to sedate Atari. It's Atari's first operation.

I bought my Atari Jaguar in 2003, they were hard to find even back then. This one was brand new, and never unpacked, the console itself was still in its sealed bag. The box had seen better days though. The unique thing about this one is that it came with a SCART-cable and had no RF-modulator. Usually they came with the RF-modulator and antenna cable, you had to buy the SCART-cable separately.
I got it with 7 games, all in shrink wrapped boxes.
