    Nice! I have a friend with an original Berzerk standup.
    ‘intruder alert…’

    How is the VCS? Do you like it?

    I was confused for a minute. Pretty sure some called the old 2600 a VCS. I could not figure out how you connected an old school console to a modern TV…and had it look good.

    I have my old 2600 and the crt TV I used to play on. Both work great the last time I used them.

      I’ve done it. It’s perfect playable. And all you need is a cheap RCA to coaxial adapter.

      The better solution is to buy an up-scaler though. They range from reasonably priced to outrageously so.

    Yes I do: just another addition to my collection.

    I’ve always wanted to play Atari and it turns out the digital games on the Store are dirt-cheap, especially the 2600 and 7800 game ports.

    Now I just need to get some older systems later.

    Berserk is a favorite of mine! I don’t have a VCS but I wouldn’t mind one…
