riffraff

one has sold already - one remains!

I noticed I still had 2 of these from the sale of TV-Boys of 1995 =) If anyone is interested I'd take $95 each shipped in the USA. Edit: here's the wikipedia page describing the TV-Boy for those who are unfamiliar: TV BOY These are from NICS and are NTSC. edit: *both are now sold - thanks!*

Just an update... the Limited release of this game is nearly ready to ship. There are 16 copies unreserved, so if you want one make sure to get in touch with Adam soon. Right now it's a limit of one per customer but that limitation will be removed in the next week or 2 if the remaining games don't get spoken for. Mike G.

Selling Malagai for the Atari 2600. Asking $165 shipped in the USA. Label is not in great shape but is complete. SOLD!

Another update: The initial run of Crazy Climber will be 50 numbered copies. There will most likely be reprints of CC and War at a later time. At this time only one can be reserved per person. If less than the 50 copies are spoken for in 4 weeks from now, Adam will then allow people to reserve more than one if so desired. Estimated release of production is 8 weeks from now. There are less than 1/2 of the 50 copies remaining. If you want a Bally Astrocade Crazy Climber I wouldn't wait too long. Mike G.

Alright Adam was gone for the day yesterday so it took some time to get this info: If you are interested in getting on the waiting list for Crazy Climber (should be ready to ship in 6-8 weeks from now) email: [email protected] As per Adam's post to the groups: ------------------- A waiting list for "Crazy Climber" will now begin now that the pre-orders for the game are complete. This list will work on a first come, first served basis. Here is how to get you name on the list and how the list works: 1) Email me and ask to be added to the list. ([email protected]) 2) You will be added to a list for the remaining copies of "Crazy Climber" in the order that your name is received. 3) There is absolutely NO need to send any money at this point. Once the game is ready to ship, then you will be contacted. At that point you will have seven days to purchase the game. If you decide not to buy the game, or if seven days elapse and the game has not yet been purchased, then you lose your place on the list. This list is as simple as it sounds. If you're interested in being added to the "Crazy Climber" waiting list, then contact me. ------------------- There were 20 that people could pre-pay for so we can actually make the PCB's etc. but those were already spoken for by the time I heard back. In any case if you get on the list you'll get one. I've also been asking about a 2nd print of War but that will not happen until after the CC release.

Sorry not yet. It was announced to the Bally Alley group for pre-orders but waiting to hear back from Adam on some details. Wont be long.

Thanks! Pre-orders will be available today. I'll post the details shortly!

Bally Astrocade Music Maker NiB eBay Auction -- Item Number: 200573385288 One of 30 production carts for this title with a custom circuit board. New in box factory sealed.

I just saw The King of Kong the other night and was completely blown away. Nice to see the battle continues.

Sega Uranus? ok.. enough

I got mine for a little over $500.. was in good shape, from a dealer in 1993 or thereabouts. I'm sure $1000 is reasonable for the same thing nowadays.

Yep this is what I saw too. Normal train speed and "faster" train speed when button pressed.

or possibly someone was really taking that extra step while doing a you-tube video revie like the Angry videogame nerd.

Is it wrong that I laughed at this? Hopefully it was an oversight by the seller and you can get things resolved.

As soon as Adam is ready to take the preorders I'll make sure to update this thread with the info. Mike G.

Yes it's the original manual. This is one of the remaining items I have from the Devin Knight colleciton. I have a high offer of $500. I'll end this by 10pm PST tonight.

Edit: This has been sold! Thank you to everyone who made offers. Since I'm sure someone will ask, the sale price was $600 including shipping + insurance. Edit: found the manual for this cart too. It's basically 1 sheet folded twice on nice glossy stock paper. There is a slight crease along one of the corners.

Astroids was my first coin-op purchase. I wish I still had it .. worth every penny.

Thanks PBJ I'll check that out

Soul Nomad rocks =)

I was planning on that but based on my other query I may be waiting a couple months to get registered there.

I have a few questions if anyone knows a lot about this 1982 rock-ola game. I've seen a video of someone "playing" the coin-op with mame I'm guessing. It has him cheating about halfway in which shows all of the levels up to wave 99 (you can see he cheats as the tail stops growing, the time stops counting down, and eventually he just is able to skip ahead to each level right as he starts a level) That youtube video is HERE My questions are as follows: At 8:10 in the video you see wave 21. I can not see any "dots" in this maze. Is this some bug because of the way he's cheating or are the dots invisible on this level? If they are invisible, it would be the only wave where this happens. I notice the dip-switch settings have an option for "pause at corners". Anyone know if the factory settings for this are on or off? It just seems to make the snake pause for a split second at the corners, doesn't actually make him stop. Does this setting either way greatly affect difficulty of the game? One last thing is I noticed Tim McVey (the original world record holder on this machine) mention on a CAG thread that after many years of not playing and coming back to the game that some of the patterns he used would fail if he did them "too fast". I'm guessing this has to do with the "pause at corners" as this seems to me the only time you could affect the speed of a pattern (if you are pressing in the direction of the way you would go if the game automatically takes you at a corner then there is no pause). Does it seem like I understand this right? Thanks in advance to anyone who has the obscure knowledge of this game and can answer these questions.

This thead has made me LMAO =)
