Galactus Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 for a decent price I'll snatch it up. I just don't want to pay eBay prices for it. It looks fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stage_1_Boss Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Such an elusive title it isn't even found in the topic. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

English Invader Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Maybe he's talking about the console. Good luck with that. I saw a boxed Jag in my local CEX yesterday and they wanted £170 for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OBLIVION23 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Oh you must mean Supercross 3D right? I know it can be a spendy jag title, just bide your time im sure it will pop up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UHATEIT Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I checked this thread to see what "one" meant. Jag CD? Jag console? Battlesphere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacman000 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I assume one means Jaguar, since this is the Jaguar forum & there's nothing to limit the thread to a single game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welshworrier Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I find that most games with 64 in the title have similar levels of interest... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walter_J64bit Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I've seen only two Atari Jaguars in the wild it was in the late 90's or early Y2K but it's same when come to carts and JagCD games, my copy of Dragon's Lair was found in the wild.

Rick Dangerous Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 They typically aren't cheap in the wild these days either. Your best bet may be to place a "wanted" ad on craigslist and maybe someone local has one in their basement they might be willing to give you a deal on. That's how I got my second for $100. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorclu Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 (edited) Well in 1999 I got all my Jaguars in the wild. $30 at Kaybee toy store (had to call their corporate office to track that down, bought the last two of three in the Dallas area). Found another in a pawn shop with AvP and I believe Tempest 2000 for $50. Bubsy was originally bought at Trader's Village in Grand Prairie and was my second game for the system. Found two Jaguar development kits in the wild which I bought for $50 a piece in 2001. Over the years I've seen about three Jaguar somethings in various retro stores per year. Latest: Flashback was selling for $40, picked that up for half of that in a black Friday sale. Saw Iron Solider in the box for $10.

ColecoGamer Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 (edited) The last time I encountered an Atari Jaguar in the wild was over fifteen years ago at my local Salvation Army. The system came complete with 2 joypads, all the proper hookups, and 8 games for $75. Yes, I bought it. I kept the system for three years before selling it on eBay. I cant remember why I sold it, but I do remember regretting my decision later. May I suggest browsing the marketplace forum here on AA for a system? The Jaguar system I own today was purchased through there. Edit: One thing I forgot to mention - the likelihood of you finding an Atari Jaguar in the wild for cheap (let alone finding one at all) is slim to none. Your choices are either eBay or from communities like this one here. Edited April 1, 2018 by ColecoGamer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UHATEIT Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 There was a loose Jaguar system with 2 controllers posted on the Facebook Marketplace here where I live. I am in Denver, Colorado but this was listed in the Pueblo, CO section (which is about 2 hours south of me). I didn't need a second Jag so I didn't feel like going all the way down there to try and grab it (as I actually drove to Pueblo before for a game deal and got stood up and didn't want to risk that happening again). Turns out the jaguar was still sitting there listed for $100 for almost 6 months. One of the local gamers on my Retro Game page here in Denver actually was down there for business last week and hit the dude up and scored the loose Jag with all hookups and the 2 controllers for $30!!! I thought damn I should have just bit the bullet and drove down there! That being said, you CAN find Jaguars in the wild out there, likely not for $30 with 2 controllers which is a hell of a find. Would have been worth the $100 and the 2 hour drive but when I heard the other guy got it for $30 it definitely would have been worth the price then!

+save2600 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 In all my travels, I've only run across one Jaguar system with a handful of games in the wild. They were at sumguy's booth of misc. movies, music and games at a sketchy old flea market. The games and system were caked in that gritty, sandy dirt typically found at such places and boxes were all beat up, so was easy to pass. Wasn't even priced, but there wasn't anything too rare or of particular interest anyway. Getting to a point where I won't even bother to ask on stuff like this that isn't priced as you know it'll be sky high. Or they whip out their phone and start quoting eBay asking prices. So many flea market vendors today think they're running little high end boutiques or something. It's all very strange, but par for the course these days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leech Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Ha, this thread just reminds me... I don't think I own Bubsy yet... also there is currently a Battlesphere Gold on ebay for 1260 or something ridiculous, and I don't even think it is an original copy.

OBLIVION23 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Got mine for $100 at a game store in Louisville KY while i was on a roadtrip a couple of years ago with all the hookups and a controller and Cybermorph and Iron Soldier, not a bad deal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete5125 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 your best bet in the wild will be a local used game store, that just throws all the atari 2600/5200/7800/jaguar games in a dump box in the corner of the store. you have to hope your in a small town where they dont care to list stuff on ebay. You have to figure everyone at this point has the internet and knows you can sell a jag for 100 bucks or more. so why would you as a local game store even try, if you get it and games you have to sell it as a bundle. your typical gamer doesnt care, every time i see one in a local shop it sit their as it is overpriced and most are unaware of its exsistants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I have seen two Jaguar systems in the wild. And I literally have bought every Jaguar game I have run across in the wild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
