Dec 2011 Atari 2600 Competition: Pitfall

[Sunnyvale]

As the weiner of last month's old man video game competition, I choose Pitfall! Let's see more than 3 competitors for this one, sheesh! I mean, who doesn't like Pitfall? Difficulty 'B', top score wins.

Plug em in and let's go!

Unfortunately, my 2600 is in the "repair shop" indefinitely. ^^;
Is the PS2 Activision Anthology version acceptable, Sunnyvalle420?

No pause allowed, but as there is no prize except bragging right amongst the three (I got grief about lacking knowledge, but not being willing to play Pac-Man?!? WTF, guys?) people who use their 2600's, hell yes, treismac! Glad to see another hot-n-ready Harry!

What's wrong with the 2600? I have a busted 4 switch for parts and shipping is cheap...

Treismac, do you live close to Hell, by chance?

[treismac]

...hell yes, treismac! Glad to see another hot-n-ready Harry!

Awesome. Hell yes (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAmvp0JUA_Y), indeed.

My four switch 2600 has a busted first player controller port with a missing pin. I've already desoldered (Good heavens was it a bitch! I hate desoldering!!!) the busted one off, so I just need to solder a new one in. At the moment, I'm away from my house and 2600, so let me get back to you to make sure that the controller port issue is all that ails my 2600.

Sorry. I have no music video with a song referencing "hell" in its lyrics to link to the previous paragraph.

Ahh, I recall the thread now. Great fun desoldering is :|

I have no music either, nor hell, but at least your Atari is made with old-school engineering...

*Note the yin yangish swirl in the screen. Kinda cool.

[treismac]

Less than seven days to go.

[treismac]

Eh. Can you really say that you "won" a competition if you were the sole competitor? :(

[tom]

ah I should have participated, I forgot all about it :-(

Redeem yourself with SeaQuest!!!

[tom]

Seaquest, ugh oh first try 54810, nothing to brag about so far.

Damn I suck, not even playing in my own competition!

Tom, treismac started a new thread for the Seaquest one. No big deal, just fyi.
