Retro games at Computer Recycling

From Hardware The past couple of months have brought a lot of changes to The Working Centre's Computer Recycling project. One of those changes is the addition of a working Vic 20 (we also have a Commodore 64) and an Atari 800. The Vic 20 is on display and anyone is welcome to drop in and play one of the games we have on cartridge for it. Currently we have the following games: * Donkey Kong * Pac Man * Spills N' Fills * Pole Position * Home Babysitter * MasterType * Garden Wars We do have a Commodore 1541 disk drive for the Vic 20 and a tape cassette drive, but at the moment we're collecting software on cartridge. The Atari 800 is not set up yet. We're looking for a small 19" or less television to hook the Atari to.
