What's On Your Xmas Wish List? (Gaming Only)


Recommended Posts

Title - gaming only stuff - not interested in your wish for fuzzy bunny slippers.

 

The only thing I have on my Xmas wish list this year is a working Sega Saturn console with controllers, light guns, Daytona USA and Area 51.

 

Will follow-up on this thread with a "So What Did You Get For Xmas" thread.

 

Time's yours...

Dear Mrs. Santa. I'd like a Sega Naomi driving cabinet. 355 challenge would be ideal, but an Initial D would be okay. Failing that, I think I'd settle for a San Francisco Rush 2049. I only need a single unit, because I know I'll never get you to race against me.

 

Also santa, perhaps you could tell your side of the family to stop buying me wallets and bottles of Dior's Fahrenheit--of which I have several lifetime supplies. Perhaps a trip to a game reproduction site for that Metroid Super Zero Mission SNES hack. Or maybe Vector Pilot for vectrex. Gift cards for Roberts Space Industries, or hell, Atariage.com might be useful.

 

Realistically I know I won't get any of these things. I'll probably get some overpriced 'as seen on tv' cooking product again. Here's a better idea--how about those ebay gift cards I keep asking for so I can just shop for my damn self, because nobody seems to know where real video games can be purchased.

I like how Crazy Climber tells us where to get the stuff on his list just in case we decide to buy it for him. :-D

 

Aside: I'd be happier with Stunt Cycle if you had to return the "throttle" back to idle before you could start the next jump. As it is, you can sorta cheat by just advancing the throttle from the previous jump's throttle position.
It's been over 30 years since I played the home console, but I remember it starting by throttle twist not by pressing a button. I remember it having a spring loaded throttle, too. We had a lot of fun playing that back in the simpler days of my life.

Skeleton (boxed release, philly classic?)

 

I don't believe Skeleton(+) was ever released with a box. Of course, as the original Skeleton is no longer available, it's collectable along with the original release of Skeleton+ with the You Win glitch. And there's the ultra-rare Hozer Video release of Skeleton complete with unique label artwork.

There was a boxed version! I have seen it...the box was brown, thats all I remember but I am 100% certain it exists ;)

Hozer games are not rare, lol

 

*EDIT - The same guy that was selling it also had an Ebivision Pac man CIB. Wonder purchased the Ebivision Pac from him, if he remembers they guys name (was on Ebay) I can contact him to see where the heck that boxed Skeleton came from. This was a long time ago though so I'm not holding my breath on an answer, lol

 

I'm still mad I got outbid though, grrrrr, I knew I would never see another, lol

Based on my royalties, there shouldn't be many of the Hozer label variant of Skeleton out there.

Ah, didn't realize it was your game. So is the boxed one I saw unauthorized? If thats the case I will remove it from my wanted list :)

Well, the sad news is Hozer will make anything for anyone who asks him if he has permission to or not.

Well I got a Vectrex, so... that's one of three last year wishes granted!

So this year...

I asked my family for a Wii U Zombi U pack - unless something happens, this one is granted as well.

So what remains is :

A ZX Spectrum clone

A Soviet computer - Either an Elektronika BK, or a Vector 06c... Or maybe an UKNC.

A SCART Intellivision.

A RCA Studio II Euroclone.
