• CIB
• Console throughly cleaned, minute detail
• Rebuilt controllers - xxx parts used - tested and function 100%, but not used
• Box in great condition, collectors will appreciate
• only flaw (this is nitpicking) faint scratch on smoked plexiglass cover
Wow - this is a really old handheld gaming machine and it still works. Shame about the size of the console, the tiny screen and the way it eats batteries.
My Atari 2600 Collection:
Atari 2600 6-Switch "Woody"
Atari 2600 "Darth Vader"
Atari 2600 Jr. "Short Rainbow"
Wikipedia says...
In 1986, a new version of the 2600 was released (although it was planned for release two years earlier). The new redesigned version of the 2600, unofficially referred to as the 2600 Jr., featured a smaller cost-reduced form factor with a modernized Atari 7800-like appearance.

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.
Atari's 8 bit computer were never really famous in Sweden. As far as I can recall the first time I really heard about Atari and their home computer was probably in 1988 or something, and then it was the Atari ST.
I've might have spotted an 8bit Atari at a computer party around that time, but I never saw one close up or played around with one until the end of 2011, when I got this one from a Swedish auction-site.
This is the Atari 600 XL, a 6502 based 8bit computer from the early eighties with Swedish characters. Unfortunately the keyboard is broken on this one, the circuit board got a crack in it and several of the switches for the keys are broken and would need repairing. Apart from that it seems to work OK, I got it with a cartridge game and that one runs nicely on it.
This one is now sold as I was lucky to get an 800 XL for free. It will have a new life with a new keyboard.
