Today I bought 7 Atari 2600 for 50 euro (about 45 dollars) so I'm going to clean them up test them all out and see what if I can make a little profit of them!

Ah the good ol days. I think a lot of the 2600 games are available through PC emulator software. But of course the legalities of that are hazy.

I will kick your ass at Air Sea Battle. I used to play it at Sears in Ingram Mall in San Antonio back in 1978 when they came out. Took till 1980 to get one. Man I loved my Atari. Turned me into a true gamer..... Arcades were starting to suck. Costed a quarter a game. :)
