Atari Karts on the Jag? Yeah I've played a bit of it, didn't like it all that much. Difficult controls to get used to (for me anyway). The plus side of it though is probably the graphics. Good looking game.
You say it's quite rare? Never paid much attention to that. All my Jag games(all of them are loose carts) were included in the purchase of the console and the CD add-on unit.
Well I don't :|

Yeah, Atari Karts is the third rarest game for the system, and the two above it weren't even released to the public

Yeah I just had a quick glance at eBay and I see complete copies going for $90+
Interestingly there's also a few loose boxes of this game going for $9.95. So this being a rare type of game and since I only own the cart, it's probably a good idea to maybe pick up one of those boxes.



Anyway so I managed the other day to get my hands on a mint CIB Magnavox Odyssey 2 system with the Voice add-on module and a few games.
The thing is that I haven't hooked it up yet because it seems I need one of those "F" to Phono Plug Adapters so the RF cable can be compatible with my TV.

Those American Oddyssey 2 boxes are a lot prettier than the European Videopac boxes.
It's awesome you got the Voice with it, that thing can be hard to find at times.
And Wall Street Fortune hunt sounds pretty cool. I have Quest for the Rings, but haven't had a chance to play it with friends yet.

So the AES system (which I mentioned in another thread) finally cleared customs and was delivered to me.
A pleasant surprise was when I was just checking and turned the console over, was that the serial number (which some of you guys have told me that the lower the number the better the quality of the RGB video output) is 050510. It's very strange because this is not the number the seller told me when I asked him, but I'm not complaining. lol

Wow. You've started getting into Neo Geo now. I hear it's a slippery slope.

Yeah I hear that too. :shock:
nah but with me it's more like I'm in something one week and out the next.
this week it was a boxed colecovision, by next week it will probably be a 2600 with the arcadia/starpath supercharger module, and so on and so on etc etc :lol:

neo geo, I have so much fun with it and by today's standards if you buy the earlier games this is not too expensive, so many great games!

Yeah I mean I got a kick out of just the fact of the sheer size of the cartridges!
I showed them to a gaming buddy of mine (here in South Africa there is hardly any knowledge with regard to this system) and he was blown away by the carts and the controllers. :lol:
