Want to buy Rev 5.1 circuit boards?

4 Comments

Since I kind of doubt I’ll sell enough VCSp Rev 5.1’s to use up all the circuit boards I’ve ordered (kind of screwed myself on that by announcing the Gameport 😉 I’m willing to sell them to anyone who’s interested. They would be sold as a set of (2), as shown below. Atari board not included.

This is the acorn that will grow a mighty oak
A 4″ x 4″ hacked 2600, with the custom circuit boards on each side.

They are very easy to use and are well-labeled. All indicators match those in my book and most common Atari 2600 pinouts.

I’m thinking about $30 for boards only, $75 for stuffed boards (parts soldered on + my labor, shipping inside US included). Stuffed boards will also include battery holders (2 AA cells behind each board). Parts lists will be available for for the blank boards. Email me or discuss below.

Classicgaming.com Mailbag

Read through it and see what you can find. This is the first time I mentioned the Atari project to the internet, and thus this simple mailbag entry “started it all”. Look for more fun behind-the-scenes stories like this during my presentation at the Midwest Gaming Classic!
