Awesome road trip/ raid with lots of Atari France machines !

I do wonder, did you take those pics with a Nokia from 1998 ? :D

Is that a French Atari Basketball ?
The bezel looks different from what I remember....

No offence but Atari France didnt actually make The most beautiful looking machines.......that Asteroids......mmmmmm...and always those naked control panels.....but still....I love all Euro machines !!!

No, my contact think that his jukebox was a treasure.
He wants 700€/piece "as is" and dust is free  :shock:

Nokia .... The problem is how to upload picture on this forum... I have picture of too big size and I 'll resize in a quick and dirt way.
the jukebox are too expensive for us.
French game are not so nice as other but it's a piece of Atari story and I can't miss them ;-)
The basketball was the Atari Ireland but tomorrow I'll double check.

OK so Basketball is the Irish one....mmmm.

I remember the bezel to be like this on the one I saw at a Belgian warehouse, but I have no clue if it was an Irish or US machine.



The bezel on the one the picture you posted looks like this one I guess:



So, maybe a US bezel on an Irish cab ? IMHO the US bezel is cooler in this case....


Yes DEFINITLY Atari history and LOVE to see them rescued !  :spaceace: :spaceace: :spaceace:
