oky2000 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Well I guess he really doesn't want to sell it and this is just a ploy to keep the wife happy by pretending to try and sell it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMaddog Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 2000 quid... Guess that answers the question of it's rarity in the other thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oky2000 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 There are many rare games that when they do turn up sell for a lot less than 2000 bucks IMO Perhaps I should increase the price of my new old stock copy of Brattacass (SIC?) by 20 fold also now hmmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjlazer Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Too bad the ST port is crap! No scrolling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oky2000 Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Yeah best off with super stario land or whatever it's called. The Amstrad version also has flip screen not scrolling too. Actually neither the Amiga (which has a great Sonic clone called Kid Chaos) or C64 is particularly that fun putting the prices of £100s aside for one minute.

simonsunnyboy Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Too bad the ST port is crap! No scrolling? I don't agree, it is very playable and the lack of scrolling makes some levels a lot easier to manage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oky2000 Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 IMO A Super Mario rip-off without scrolling is as useless as the replacement 2D Batmobile/Batwing sections for the C64 conversion of Batman the Movie from Amiga/ST. There is no point converting a scrolling platformer if you are going to ruin the jump mechanics and remove the scrolling lol. My comments also apply to the Amstrad version too obviously. There are much better platform games on the ST....and some even scroll nicely on a stock FM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Gemintronic Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 I'm glad to see it has got you all talking! Anyone want to make me an offer?? The Marketplace section would attract more buyers, methinks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParanoidLittleMan Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 I would make some modest offer, but don't like cover picture. Much better is variant with blonde girl in mini ... Ah, and what about offering it in Monte Carlo ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
