Bally Astrocade Manuals
This is a longshot, but I'm working on scanning Bally Astrocade manuals for my scanning project. I have the majority of the commercially released titles, but would like to get better scans than are available on the internet already for the ones I am missing:
Biorhythm
Cosmic Raiders
Solar Conqueror
I'm also on the lookout for original releases for:
Galaxian
Space Invaders
(I believe those to just have a single sheet/card for instructions)
Also, I'm working with the available scans of Ms. Candyman and Sea Devil. Is there anything better out there?
I plan on making a compilation book like my Atari 7800 Compendium. Thoughts on including the unlicensed games as well (if I can get most/decent scans)?

How do I connect an Astrocade to a 90s TV?
galleryI have an Bally Astrocade that I’m trying to connect to an Emerson 90s CRT TV/Monitor. The console has an RCA connector, the TV a coaxial connector. I got a simple adapter for the coax post.
The screen goes from static to on but there’s no coherent image.
Does anyone know what additional components are needed to step up (or down?) the signal? 300 ohms to 75 I think?
The TV only has the coaxial input. There’s no older UHF/VHF screw posts.
Any help would be appreciated.

Amazing to see
My Dad had one of these. It seemed like such a rare console- I never met a person that also owned one. Really nice to see that I didnt just dream it existed :P

Is a COMPOSITE video mod even possible?
I do not have s-video and the RF is too static-y.

Time to say goodbye as a mod.
I've been a mod for quite a few of the retrogaming (and other adjacent) subs here for a long time -- even if kind of dormant recently. I love these topics, and how our digital "ancestors" solved hard problems, and how we've build a continuum of interest with their work. I started and even took over a few dormant subs and worked with /u/zadocpaet to help build a broad community here, even appealing to niche systems.
The mod teams are doing a great job, especially /u/Derf_Jagged. I feel like now is a good time to step down. I'm going to continue to lurk, and be a regular user and I wish the subs, the mods, and the users the best!

I remember the fun I had playing this system as a kid....
I was recently cleaning my dad's house out and found 2 systems new never taken out the box and 1 used one. The used one it has a chained demo cartridge in the front and the system is in a tan tray with the ballys logo. I'm pretty sure it was like the store display or something also have a bunch of games with it unfortunately my girlfriend packed 2 of them and the store display and 1 of the new in box ones so can't get pics of those at this time....I was wondering does anyone have an idea of what they are worth

This is a little recording I made of Space Fortress for the Bally Astrocade. It's the official home port of the 1980 Midway arcade game Space Zap. It's also the most intense shooter I've ever played.
