What’s new?

Here you can see what items have been added to the collection recently.

November 24th, 2024
New additions to the collection: A big thank you to Ben Jones from Plaion Ltd. for donating this very special Atari 7800+ VIP Box. I have played this machine for several hours and I can confirm that besides joysticks and paddles also the driving controllers and the keyboard controllers work. Sadly not (yet!) in combination with each other, so it is not possible (yet!) to play Star Raiders with a joystick and a video touch pad. Compatibility with old original releases is almost 100%. The wireless joypads come with a 9 pin and a USB connector, so you can use these on a PC too. Also a lot of new 7800 and 2600 games will be pubished. The console and the games are available from November 29th 2024.
November 20th, 2024
New additions to the collection: Fatal Run and Ninja Golf (Atari/Plaion rereleases) for the 7800. The official Dutch manual of Night Driver and the official Omikron Basic manual in French (Belgium). Both documents will be scanned and uploaded to the online archive soon. Also new: Super Baseball and Emdurl (Taiwan copy of Enduro) for the 2600. And I went shopping again during my holiday in Spain and bought some nice merchandise.
October 17th, 2024
A very big thank you to Harm Koekoek for donating his Atari 800XL, 1010 program recorder, manuals, power supplies, cables, 2 SVI joysticks, 2 Dutch Atari books and SAG Public Domain cassette 8.
October 7th, 2024
New additions to the collection: 7 hard to obtain French Atari 8-bit cassette games published by Atari France, Pengo for the Atari 5200 and an issue of Happy Computer (thank you Robert Sprokholt!).
September 9th, 2024
New additions to the collection:
Choplifer on cartridge and Insectivores/Concentration (Atari France release) on tape for Atari 8-bit home computers. Tempus and Devpack ST for Atari ST home computers. The (empty) boxes of Super Cobra, Radar Lock and Pole Position, luckily I already have the matching (loose) cartridges so they are CIB now. Also for the 2600 a nice lot of original manuals and five CBS “secam” cartridges: Blue Print, Carnival, Stroumpfs (Smurf), Venture and Wizard of Wor. Sadly these cartridges are identical to their PAL counterparts, so it looks like only Activision made secam cartridges which were actually modified to run on secam 2600 consoles.
August 8th, 2024
New additions to the collection
: A big thank you to Niels Kamphuis for donating his Atari PC4 IBM compatible PC. This is a 286 PC with 60MB hard drive released by Atari in 1989!

This one must take its place in the collection, although I am not impressed by this mini console. My sincere advice is to wait buying this.
