IntellivisionDude Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Ouch eBay Auction -- Item Number: 400121145965 That's a lot of money for that game. It is the game i want most of all but just can't afford those outrageous prices. Actually i can't even afford affordable prices at the moment but that's a different story. I could play this game on my Intellivision Lives Collection for the PS2 but i hate playing Keypad games on a PS2 Controller. I could play it on my computer but same problem, my controller only has so many buttons i can program. I know i'll have this game someday if i'm patient. I could come across a super deal someday. But for now i wait here dreaming to be reunited with one of my favorite games from my childhood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+thegoldenband Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 If I had the money, I'd far sooner spend $150 on a Cuttle Cart 3. That way, I could play on real hardware AND get to play lots of other things besides. But then again, I'm not really a "collector" per se, though obviously I appreciate the aesthetics of a boxed CIB game. Also, weren't the Blue Sky Rangers talking about a reissue of some rare titles like Stadium Mud Buggies? Was this one of them? If so, I'd rather give my cash to the BSR!

accousticguitar Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 If I had the money, I'd far sooner spend $150 on a Cuttle Cart 3. That's exactly what I was thinking. You beat me to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybird3rd Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 If I had the money, I'd far sooner spend $150 on a Cuttle Cart 3. That way, I could play on real hardware AND get to play lots of other things besides. But then again, I'm not really a "collector" per se, though obviously I appreciate the aesthetics of a boxed CIB game. That was exactly the train of thought that lead me to purchase my CC3. I was looking for a copy of Melody Blaster to go with my Music Synthesizer keyboard, but the only one I could find at the time was a boxed copy for $145. I figured that spending just $5 more for the CC3 was a much better idea, because it would let me play Melody Blaster and all the other rare games like Body Slam. I haven't regretted my decision: the CC3 is an excellent product. Also, weren't the Blue Sky Rangers talking about a reissue of some rare titles like Stadium Mud Buggies? Was this one of them? If so, I'd rather give my cash to the BSR! In the interview that I heard with Keith Robinson (on RetroGaming Radio, in the May 2006 episode), he mentioned that, because of the costs involved in making the cartridges and packaging, they'd have to sell about 4000 cartridges to break even, so they were planning to release eight different titles at 500 copies each, at a price point of about $25 per copy. The titles he mentioned were the unreleased Illusions and Super Pro Pool & Billiards, along with Spiker and Stadium Mud Buggies. I would think that Body Slam would be an ideal candidate for one of the remaining four. More recently, they mentioned (on their Facebook page) that the DS version of Lives! and a few other projects put the cartridges on the back burner for a while, but that they're finally getting back to releasing them. I say it would be a great way to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Intellivision! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sound more like the price i'd like to pay. lol But i'm not as concerned with the box and manual. I'd be happy with Cart only. The box and manual would just be a bonus.

IntellivisionDude Posted May 31, 2010 Author Share Posted May 31, 2010 I just missed out on this game again. A copy just went for $82, which is a little more reasonable than what other people are selling it for. But still out of my price range. I would willing to accept a free donation of this game as well. :roll: :lol: :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
