That was pre playfield cleaning. Most of the wavy clouds went away with a good 100 qtips and a bruised knuckle.

If you EVER want to get rid of those Atari Joysticks, give me a call. I have wanted to mod one into a 2600 controller for a very long time, they just rarely come up for sale.


these are staying put but i'll keep an eye out for you on any extras. been hitting up a lot of operators' warehouses in the last few weeks.

I meant that it was not super bright flashy colors all over it and was rather calm compared to mine and most others I've seen.

Ah. Thats just early 70s Nishijin, they were fairly muted in colors (though these are faded alittle more than standard). Mid 70s and late 70s they went bright. It is a far cry from a Daishiis orange though.

My 96 Sankyo is the centerpiece of my three, but it is also the loudest:

Once I get all three in frames, I will get a family shot.

Yeah, my mid 70s Heiwa has crazy color bars all over the background. I have seen others with more muted pastels and stuff, but not quite that low key.

so excited. I've just messing around w/ it, testing things out. Installed some of my Droid games, tried briefly streaming Borderlands Pre-Sequel and HL2 from my PC, tried streaming SFxT from The Grid. Now I'm letting it charge up so I can install the latest system update. But man this thing is just fantastic. Gonna install a nice big microSD card in there - I can see I'll be using the Shield A LOT. 8)
