Last Sunday was a historical day because from this day, my part of the "monitor group buy" is officially/eventually/finally done!
Atarimania and I met and he picked up the last 2 monitors I had in my storage.
FYI, here's a picture of this mysterious guy next to my car.
(You can see that we share the same taste when it comes to "decoration"
)
Mind you, he didn't come empty handed.
Mum, look what he gave me: a 1983 issue from Electronic Fun
I checked it immediately when I came back home and this thing is really like a time machine.
It's an excellent read specially when you know a bit of the history of video games because you are able to read the "news" in a very different light,
knowing in advance which game/console/developer is gonna be a success or a dramatic failure.
I'm hooked now and the dealer only gave me one issue
...plus as you can see, Godzilla is attacking "Joystick City" as we speak.
What am I gonna do???
Last but not least I also received an impressive Atari Phoenix cardboard mobile NOS
Should I open it? Am I really worth it??
Thank you so much, Atarimania, meeting you + these gifts really made my (Sun)day.
I will now think of a very special spot for this mighty phoenix in my future gameroom (yes it's coming up in the next months! teaser! teaser!).
