Gernot Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 (edited) right my fellow from downunder, they get everything and it won't cost them the last cent in the wallet. However i'm happy with my purchase. Photographs i will post as soon as i have it in my hands. It was expensive for SFr. 180.- ($210.-) for the console and 12 games, but the condition is extraordinary, usually this matters a shit to me, to be honest i never kept a single box, that uses to much space, i'm no collector, i'm a user, i mean i use to use it up. The only thing i care somewhat about are my vinyls, they need care, for the data on the ROM it won't matter how you store them. But no critics, those who like to collect shall collect. but let's see if i find my old cartridges, if they survived, i can sell some nice boxed exemplaries for a good price, i don'tlike to make a business out of it. But really i don't care for boxes, though it makes more sense to make a collector a happy with them. And they look really like new, i mean what should a careless on like me do with boxes? What is worth that all looks so unused is, that it grants it has been little used and the machine is in a good condition that's more important to me. But even vinyls i used, i mean some listened only to records to keep the vinyl maiden as possible. My vinyls was to listen to make ppl happy, that's their purpose in my opinion. but you know on something i'm jealous, i always would have liked to own th ECS, like i posted once i even contacted back then the general importer for switzerland, nope.

Intymike Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 but you know on something i'm jealous, i always would have liked to own th ECS, like i posted once i even contacted back then the general importer for switzerland, nope. I wrote a letter to Mattel Germany back then about wanting the ECS. But Mattel Electronics was already closed by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punishermark Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Picked up a CIB version 1 (Purple Tunnels) Dig Dug for $90. Also a INTV III and 5 loose Activision titles I did not have. 28 away from a complete collection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One does not simply complete a collection I've chased many rabbits down many holes, but I've never completed anything...I just keep increasing my denominator Congrats, though. Are you trying for complete in box games or loose carts? What are you still missing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcadeJunkie Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 What do you think of a cib intv system III for $50? Good deal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 What do you think of a cib intv system III for $50? Good deal? Not bad, especially if the box is decent and has the retention (foam?) pieces to hold the console in the box. The system III was prone to the top metal plates coming unglued, so if those are still intact even better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you trying for complete in box games or loose carts? What are you still missing? I am trying to get CIB. Of course I am missing things like Body Slam Super Pro Wrestling, Congo Bongo, etc... I need to pick up box/instructions/overlays for 28 loose carts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mojotv67 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 You should take a pic of the front of the boxes so it's easier to see the variance. You know, for those that don't know how to spot it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjarnold7 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Ok, refresh my memory. These are the "for color television viewing" variants? Which games had them? Which are rare? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonlikesMIKEYLIKESInTv Ahhh, I remember you. If you were to "guard" any of these, would it be Armor Battle?

+save2600 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Soooo glad I never cared about variants such as these. Yous guys is nutz! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojotv67 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 That's surprisingly fairly hard to find I was just thinking the samIe thing... for being the most common game this original variant just doesn't come up that often. This variant set is at the top of my list and am having a heck of a time making progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's because the "For Color TV...." is in the main design, not at the bottom of the box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
