Old Crap From My Attic: Atari and Sega Extravaganza: Atari 400/400/xl/xe, Atari Lynx, Sega Game Gear storage space win!
Well, not exactly from my attic, but from my garage this time, and not exactly from there, but from my brother…oh, just forget where it came from and bask in it’s glory…
Last weekend, my brother brought over two boxes of retro stuff that had been collecting dust in his storage space. He is just as much of a retro game / Atari nerd as I am, but he gave the boxes to me for safe keeping and enjoyment.
Today I will go through the first box and next time the second. This box contains Atari 8-bit computer software (14 titles)/hardware(2 pieces), the original Atari Lynx we purchased in the early early 90’s, his Game Gear, and healthy selection of software (Lynx 36, Game Gear 9 games ) from each. The second box contains over 100 80’s magazines for Atari computers, some with cover disks.
