WARM: Activision TV Games (10 Atari 2600 games in one controller), $10 on clearance

[Murben]

Walmart has the Activision TV Games for $10. You might be charged sales tax. "Tax applies only for orders shipped to Arkansas, California, Colorado, Mississippi, New York, Ohio and Utah. " Shipping is just over $6.

Here is a rip of the description:

This fully portable game unit can be played on most TVs. Your TV needs to have AV input jacks and then you just plug it in and play. The games included are:

Pitfall
Atlantis
Spider Fighter
Crackpots
Boxing
Tennis
Freeway
Ice Hockey
River Raid
Grand Prix

Here is a link to a review.

A warm deal for people who grew up with an Atari 2600.

I am 25 and I grew up with an atari 2600 and those games.

 

[Skel]

wow, and no ET...

 

[Wolverine27]

Awesome! I love River Raid!!! Wow this brings back some memories...

I wonder if this is available B&M...

 

[Troubadour]

I think they sell this at Toys'r'Us and some other stores for about $10, but I haven't checked... There's a review on classicgaming.com (largely positive) if you want to see what it offers.

[iamme]

This is pretty damn cool!

 

[iamme]

Is this in store too? If so, I just may stop by tonight!

 

[mmarcuse]

Does anyone have an in-store sku for this? Either Wal-mart or anywhere else that it's $10...

 

[HellMutt]

Oooh, my Atari Thumb is acting up again.....
Cool find. I used to spend hour after hour playing Atlantis!

 

[nealr]

Remember pac-man elbow, or thumb or something like that.

 

[hopster]

I wonder if this thing could be hacked to load some of the other ROMS out there... wouldn't mind a little Pheonix action on it as well...

 

[jfunk]

Cool...got two.

The fact that your shots is invisible in atlantis may be tough though...

I ordered 1 of these for X-Mas from JC Pennys.
It was $12.00 & FREE shipping code was used.
Ya may want to try a JC Pennys to avoid shipping costs.

 

[uwannawhat]

Still 161 left as of this post minus one of course~ hehe.

I doubt you'll find it @ the B&M.

OOS @ JC Penny (at least in my area, Midwest). Would have been a better deal though.

This one 10X cooler, although a bit more expensive (about $30 for it).

Power Player Video Arcade Game System

I have seen the same thing for sale at a local swap meet for about $25 (no shipping too, of course)

 

[DanFungus]

I'd get em at a thrift store, because I have a 2600, and I would get my games for maybe $.20 per game at a thrist store, and they STILL work!
edit: WOAH! clicked on the link, and saw what it REALLY was. That's pretty cool!

 

[psxjunky]

Got one ... thanks !

 

[Wolverine27]

Anyone have an idea how long the AV cord on this is? I'm just curious because the AV inputs on my tv are in the back so I want to make sure the cord is long enough.

 

[psxjunky]

Wolverine27: RadioShack sells A/V extensions cords that you can use in case the built-in cord for this one is not long enough.

 

[Wolverine27]

Thanks psxjunky! Just ordered 2.

 

[uwannawhat]

Just got mine today. Oh the memories~!

Thanks Murben for the post and for rekindling all of those memories.

My kids love it almost as much as I do.

edit The AV cord is 8'.

 

[JerkyChew]

Gultig, that thing RULES! Too bad they're out of stock.

What the hell? Is that a Dreamcast controller? What'd they do...modify a VMU to store Atari games?
