    i picked this up today for $20.00 at goodwill.

    an atari 5200 with trackball and games, this thing is huge

    the console doesn't seem to work

    i may try to sell it as is or break it up in parts.

    I have an original Atari Pong system still in the box, and a 2600 with about 60 games. I never did own a 5200. I had a friend that had one, but I never did mess with it. After the Atari I think I went to Nintendo as well. I remember when Toys R Us was clearing the 2600 games out for $3 to $5 each.

    I found a 2600 not too long ago at a thrift store and we've got tons of used games stores in town that sell the games for 99c, needless to say, i've got quite a collection.
    However i have no atari controllers! But, after a quick google search I found out that the sega genesis controllers worked with the atari! And they work quite nicely, i'm still trying to get some authentic 2600 controllers though.
