| MLE | Probably not. They are old as shit (but usually tanks and last a good long time). | |

| Tadao | I wonder if Ataris have fuses by the power supply. | |

Also, I thought I knew exactly what video game all generic sound effects are taken from (Galaga) but that totally wasn't it. God damnit, this is going to keep me up until I know what it is. Wikipedia states that it is in fact Donkey Kong, but I've never heard anyone playing that :< |

| Guitar Woman | I totally saw one in the goodwill today for 20 quid. If Fathom hadn't taken my money on a wild and crazy joyride with the promise of Pokemon and all my dreams come true, I would have gotten it :< | |

| MLE | Okay, so it seems my Atari 2600 is borked. Anyone want to send me theirs? I'll draw you pretty pictures. | |
| Jul 18th, 2008 03:48 AM | ||
| MLE | I don't think anyone I know does. Possibly my parents still have one I can use. | |

| Tadao | If you have a friend with an old tv, you might want to check it there. I think there was a big frequency issue last time I tried to hook up my old atari. | |

| MLE | Okay so, the RF switch looks like it's not working, so this will be delayed by at LEAST a day :< | |

I have so many Atari 2600 games. SO MANY. My favorite is Warlords :< |

| Mockery | You sure you're not thinking about Pacman on the Atari 2600, Willie? Because the sound effects from that game have probably been used in more TV shows and movies than I can imagine. :O | |

| 10,000 Volt Ghost | I know what effect you're talking about but never knew what it was from. | |
| Jul 17th, 2008 07:00 PM | ||
| executioneer | dk is pretty bad on 2600, but that didn't stop them from using the sound effects in almost every tv show that had "kid playing video games" in the past 20 years | |

| Tadao | What's sad is that I have 5 in my toolbox. I used to be an elect tech. | |

| MLE | It's called a matching transformer, and I already had the RF switch, and I'm going out to Radioshack to get it momentarily. I'll let you all know how Donkey Kong and Jr. are on the Atari 2600! | |
| Jul 17th, 2008 06:13 PM | ||
| Dr. Boogie | Sounds like it, yeah. | |
| Jul 17th, 2008 06:11 PM | ||
| MLE | the 75 ohm F-Connector would be a coax, then, I assume. | |
| Jul 17th, 2008 06:07 PM | ||
| Dr. Boogie | The geocities site says it's called a "300-ohm matched pair to 75-ohm F-Connector transformer". | |
| Jul 17th, 2008 05:35 PM | ||
| Tadao | Yeah, the part on the right is really cheap at radio shack. | |
| Jul 17th, 2008 05:33 PM | ||
| MLE | Okay, so we have the RF switch to the double prong, but we don't have the second part. | |
| Jul 17th, 2008 05:02 PM | ||
| Tadao |
Yeah, this is the way I used to do it. Radioshack, about 1 dollar. |
