Selling my spare Atari Super PONG console. This is the version with 4 versions of PONG on the same unit. It was acting wonky, but after I replaced the big capacitor on the motherboard it's working great now. It comes with just the console and a Phono/RF adapter so you won't need a switchbox. It uses the standard Atari power adapter (not included), but it also runs off 4 "D" cell batteries. The picture shows the console running on batteries on my TV. There is no corrosion in the battery port.

$50 shipped or I am also willing to trade. I am looking for 2 NES Dogbone controllers and SNES games. I only have a couple SNES games so I am looking for all the staples (Super Mario World, Zelda, Metroid, Donkey Kong, Final Fantasy, etc.). I can trade straight up or we can do +/- $$$ where necessary.

 
Fair warning, the OEM power supply for these is 5.5v, while a VCS / 2600 power supply is 9v.
 
What bit did you use to get it open? I have one too that I might want to do some cleanup work on.

I don't have the right bit for it. I used a weird 2 prong bit that I have in a 100 bit security set. However, one of them got stripped and I dremel'd a flathead groove in it.
 
Thank you for the clarification. I did not know that.

Didn't realize it myself until a couple years ago when I used my VCS power supply in an Ultra Pong Doubles and it came on for a second and then freaked out and faded to static. I was quick enough where it didn't damage anything, grabbed the real Pong power supply and noticed the difference.

I've had good luck removing the long shallow security tri-wing screws in Pongs with a pair of locking pliers, just be careful when you start if you don't want to scratch up the plastic. After a couple turns you'll find they come out pretty easy.

Thanks for the tip!
