$50 got me my 10th game, or in other words, another headache!
Got tipped off by a thrift store goer that were was an "Old Atari game you might like." So I went to go check it out, expecting a $300 Centipede or whatever, but I walked in and layed eyes on a poor, abandoned Pole Position. "Hey, this will be fun!" says I.
The tag read "$50 Antique Atari Game. Doesnt work. Maybe U can fix it"
Well for $50, maybe I can
Then again, maybe I cant. Ive heard bad things about PP's reliability... The Matsushita monitor had a blown fuse, so I popped one in and turned it on and POP!! FLASH!!!! Uh oh... The game itself seemed to boot up for a second, then it stopped and I havent been able to get it to boot up since. The Power supply is an electrical nightmare, so I might have found a use for the parts in that Centipede cabaret that seems to enjoy raping me of my dignity.
