In Topic: Amiga Cable for a 1084S-P

Looks like you want the Amiga RGB to 6-pin DIN

You can also hook up composite video (color from 1200, B&W on the 500/2000 without additional hardware) to the monitor if picture quality is not an issue.

In Topic: Game Variations - What carts have hidden gems

When I was a young'un, I would play Combat against my dad. I always wanted to play the variation with three small biplanes against one big fat biplane (with me as the three), because it was monstrously unfair.

In Topic: Most ridiculous artwork on an Atari 2600 game box

While It's probably more fitting than a lot of Atari artwork, I always loved the inspired (possibly unintentional) silliness of the crappy rubber dinosaur toys with model fighter jet parts painted silver seen on Demon Attack.

In Topic: Still searching the right picture for a tattoo?

Mon Aug 1, 2011 8:08 PM

It takes me a lot of serious desire and consideration to put a sticker on my car - there's no way I'd ever have enough motivation for a semi-permanent decoration on my body.

In Topic: The "Story" of Centipede?

No. Per the arcade manual it's a humanoid head. I.E. an icon meant to represent a person.

The elves were consistent with the arcade game and what was being used in it's arcade followup (Millipede) at the time of the 2600 version's release in '82. A garden with giant bugs and a humanoid archer.

Was the 'shooter' graphic in Millipede supposed to represent a bow then? (the shots look more arrow-like in that game, after all) That would be my best guess, as it looks even less humanoid than the head-thingy from Centipede.

Maybe it's good the graphics were on the ambiguous side. The idea of a human head roaming around shooting bugs, seemingly out of the top of the scalp, gives me the shivers.
