Did it come with free fireworks built in?

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 10/10/2026

Nope - there's a place right next to the amiga in the bin for those, too.

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 10/10/2026

Can't wait to see it in the bin. £20 well spent.

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 10/10/2026

It's a light sixer (I thought it was a heavy) and the date is 1977 (rev 1), so it's an early one. Very niceconsition apart from the snapped switch. I may keep this for me, actually.

@annierat1.bsky.social Just got another Atari. I’ve never seen a red one before???

I love it when large (bastard) corporates get screwed.

I wouldn’t touch any of that fuck knuckle’s inferior slop with a shit encrusted stick.

Always pensive on the curry wait.

I also have the controller pcbs… I just wired up 1,2,* and # for my ‘not terrible’ controller. All the keypad is catered for though.

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

Do you want me to send you my 3D models?

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

Are you actually fix it felix?

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

@markfixesstuff.com One just watched one of your ColecoVision videos. Would you like me to send you a repro controller pcb so you can make yourself a ‘not terrible controller’?

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

I’ll be the hairy bastard in a Hard Off t shirt

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Make yourself known and I’ll buy you a pint of something!

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

And my controller? I’ll bring yours!

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

After reading that, I went unto the loft and dragged my X68000 out. It also needs work

Who is going to Play Blackpool this weekend?

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

The Atari games are prototypes, aren’t they? Released by home brewers?

100

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Thank you! I am loading all these games from a Picoleco, but that shouldn’t matter at all?

100

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Thanks! Did you manage to test a few of those Atari games? Montezuma’s Revenge and Joust controls don’t work either ☹️

Dig dug, Pac-Man. Super Cobra (not Atari) doesn’t fire, but you can move ok?

010

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

@leadedsolder.com Did you treat any Atari games out on Leako? None of the ones I’m loading from my picoleco will accept any inputs from the joystick?

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

Dizzy has always been shit. Kudos for them making it worse.

110

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

Sounds great! I’m looking forward to that already. If you need any info on the disastrous Dina, just shout when you’re ready.

010

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

@leadedsolder.com Can you also combine the Leako and soggy to make a Dina 2 please, as they are made out of actual shit (I have one) thanks!

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

All your fucked super famicoms are belong to us.

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

That’s also my SFC daily driver. Did you see many ‘junk’ SFC? I should have bought so many more for ‘projects’

No, it’s really not a religious thing.

Do you need to borrow my one? It’s a French scart version.

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

@leadedsolder.com Looks like the Super Cassette Vision needs a modern remake. Jus’ sayin’…

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

What coincidence - seeing this PCEGT and a few days later a friend on ukvac forums is selling a boxed one (yes, I am buying it)

010

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

I saw that. Just wondered if it’s just the cart that is the clock part

100

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

Is that just for the cart or the whole thing? Is it a working famicom ? Intriguing!

100

Virtvic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

Yes please. Did you manage to make up gerbers for the main pcb?
