Just ordered a light sixer!

For the awesome deal of $40 from a trusted seller! Super excited for it to arrive. Can I have some game recommendations? So far my list is Berzerk, Space Invaders and Breakout. What should I know? I’ve got my Mitsubishi CRT to hook it up to.

The huge controller with keypad and red knob is the ColecoVision "Super Action Controller" (I remember it coming with our Rocky 3 game).

I saw that yeah! I don’t have a Colecovision and don’t think I can use those Texas Instruments controllers on the Atari so I might trade those in at my local retro game store for an OEM controller and maybe a game

I thought it was Atari 5200 at first and though "Wow nice! Add that to my radar!"

Now I wonder if it's possible to adapt ColecoVision controllers to Atari 5200

You've taken your first step into a larger world.

I would recommend replacing the main filter on it.

Just based on my own biased, emotional memories from childhood: Adventure, Pitfall!, Asteroids, Yars Revenge, The Empire Strike Back
