Atari 2600 eprom reader cart

Got this with a bunch of random stuff in a lot. I was curious if it was worth anything? I'm not an Atari guy- I don't even have a 2600 to test it.

  • Is that chip glued down to the board, or loose? If you can read the date code from the other side of the chip, you could possibly tell when it was made. Though it's always possible someone used a really old part that had been sitting around. Not that it would have a big effect on the value, I suppose.
  • Bump- no takers on price.



    Also it looks to have been done long ago and the chip is glued down
  • Funny I just got a bunch of random Atari 2600 games the other day as well. I have a Sears & Roebuck Missile Command that I'm trying to find a price on. I can't find it anywhere.... I'm not an Atari guy either...

    They're called lock-in carts, basically a really old school powerpak for Atari. Neat items, but not especially valuable.

    $1-2. They are sitting on ebay. Search for "missile command tele"

    Sears had a big relationship with Atari going back to the Pong console days. In fact, the first version of the Pong console was Sears branded.



    So a number of 2600 games had an Atari variant and a Sears variant (and a number of label variations for both.) None of the Sears stuff is particularly valuable over the Atari stuff. The Sears games tended to be the more common games.



     
  • there are a couple sears variants that are harder to find. off the top of my head Cannon Man and picture label Superman.
  • If I was gonna price that EPROM cart, I'd say $10, $15 at the most. That's just me personally, I could make one easily if I wanted to use one (actually I did have one, haven't dug it out in 15+ years though). This is a little fancier though since it has the ZIF socket and a cleanly cut-out case. Maybe it'd be worth a bit more to someone else, just because it's cool for being old. Looks like the label says Circus on it, so it'd be Circus Atari I'd guess.
