Only threw out my Atari 2600 last year when I went to use it and consol was NFG. Had almost every game for it as kept buying all the games I saw at Trash 'n Treasure & garage sales. Cant stand the high graphics games of today.

There's a bar/restaurant by the river in Brisbane that has the old style sit down arcade consoles with most of the games listed above (plus others) programmed into them.
$1 a shot... inflation!

Hey Reb, I'm just getting my tabletop transformed into one of these.

Luckily I had an old cabinet that wasn't working properly so I've saved myself a few quid but can't wait for it to arrive!

I've got about 7 of those Game & Watch games. I think they all still work too.

And they sell too. If you have 'Egg' with a box (like I do...my retirement fund) you're talking serious $$$. Here's an example:

If you do a Google search for MAME you can download a simple emulator that plays all the 80s coin-op games on your PC. Mmmm...Rastan Saga!
