I'm looking for the red version label of this along w/ this international version of this manual. Here is a pic of the manual.

You guys have great machines in your collections! I have been collecting since '89. One of my friends owned a route which some of my machines came from. Here's a list of the top of my head: Atari Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (my first machine and unofficial world record holder) Atari 720 Atari Star Wars w/ Amp monitor Cinematronics Star Castle Bally Sente cabs X2 Namco Pac-Land GDI Slither Nintendo Super Punch Out Atari APB w/ seat That's the oddball companies I can think off the top off my head... Now, Taito (my favorite manufacturer!) Front Line Tin Star Alpine Ski Crazy Climber Jungle Hunts x2 Space Dungeon (project) The Electric Yo Yo (need marquee) Taito boardsets all of the above (spares) Wild Western Sea Fighter Poseidon Elevator Action Multiple Qix boardsets I have probably around 100 various boardsets from different companies. Arcade vids that I want: EDOT (have a line on one) Crossbow Taito Kram Taito Wild Western Williams' Star Rider (sitdown) I've been more into pins as of late so here's the ones I own: I should preface this by saying Gottlieb is my favorite pin company. Data East Batman Data East Phantom of the Opera Bally Spectrum Bally Elektra Gottlieb TX-Sector Gottlieb Genesis Gottlieb Spirit (my baby) Stern Indiana Jones Gottlieb Buck Rogers Stern Split Second Gottlieb Bounty Hunter Gottlieb El Dorado and the City of Gold Atari Atarians x2 Atari Time 2000 Williams Comet I *think * there is a couple more floating around there... And yes I have a sickness!

What's the DEAL with the SGM from Opcode Games?
schuwalker replied to ATASCI's topic in Opcode Games
Uhm, maybe you should read the other topics about this? It's ALL been discussed before... -
Thank you very much!!!!!!

Looping is one of those games that's an acquired taste. I played one at our local arcade a ton! I'm pretty sure it was a turn off for a lot of players because of the control scheme - which is very unfortunate! For those that don't know, there is a sequel for Looping in the arcades called Sky Bumper (very rare)! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfAsGXFc4Q8

What's the DEAL with the SGM from Opcode Games?
schuwalker replied to ATASCI's topic in Opcode Games
Good points Youki! Again, I have no problems w/ the delay! My issue arises when you have someone get an email correspondence about the current status of the *second run* units WHEN the current *first run* peeps are still left in the dark! Why oh why just not send out a mass email to EVERYBODY to explain the current situation... I've been somewhat laid back in this situation. But the more and more I'm on this Opcode section of this forum, I feel my B.P. rising... -

schuwalker replied to ATASCI's topic in Opcode Games
Umm.. yeah, $95 is a good chunk of change and really don't get your parking ticket analogy but okay? -
Ordered a first run SGM when it was first announced... to this day nothing has been received!
-
I'm definitely hanging in there.... It's just frustrating when he responds till certain individuals emails and not others. Even more frustrating is some of these are emails are relating to the *second* run while the first run is still in limbo.
-
Anybody else still waiting for their units receive this "email"?
-
I ordered from the first run as well. Initially, I opted to wait for the nameplate snafu he was encountering (don't know if that's still ongoing). When I first heard that people on here were getting their units; I emailed him and told him to bypass the nameplate issue and send me a unit - I received no reply. Again, I emailed him again, stating the latter, and nothing. From this thread, I understand he's having life issues. I am and still continue to support the guy by purchasing his products. BUT, not to receive any emails from him about my current order and apparently other users onhere are... irritating none the less. Eduardo, if you're reading this, please contact me via pm or email - I just wanna to able to play the damn thing.... :/

Waterworld was going for that much back then? I thought it was *reasonably* priced till we got till the 2,000's; the prices started to escalate even more. I'm speaking for boxed copies... I just looked on Ebay's completed listings, and they're still fetching a good penny.

The "improvement" on Golden Axe II is the music. This has to be in my top 5 list of Genesis tunes! I really, really, really tried to get into part 3; I just can't. I can't put a finger on one just thing, it just seems it's missing something from it's predecessors...

Photos of Toys R Us Video Game Aisles (1983)
schuwalker replied to boxpressed's topic in Classic Console Discussion
What's funny is how small of a selection of whatever toyline that was available. I'll take Star Wars' toys for an example. The section was 2' x 3' (I might be generous on that). Most of the different toylines were like that as well. Now I know big box stores are like this (Wal-mart and Target), but a store that is just exclusively a toy store? What happened to once a mighty giant from my youth! -
Great story - bad outcome:( A few years back the box for Game II was on Ebay. I don't recall what platform it was though. I know I did place a bid on it and for what I remember it wound up going over 1k. I want to say, I vaguely recall the back of the box being blank...

Photos of Toys R Us Video Game Aisles (1983)
schuwalker replied to boxpressed's topic in Classic Console Discussion
The Toys R Us stores I used to got to (Chicagoland) had all the consoles in those big, clear display cases as well. On a side note, I recently stopped in the Toys R Us store I used to go when I was little. It's been a while since I stepped foot in one of these stores. Now I know they changed the whole outside decor of the storefront. (I miss the rainbow colored siding pieces)! Anyway, I can't believe how much they changed on the inside. It seemed like everything was very compact and everything was laid out in small aisles. This is the same store I got most of my Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi toys. I'll never forget they had these LONG aisles w/ racks of figures. I recall the Star Wars' stuff was half of an aisle, the other half was GI Joe. Across the the aisle were He-man and Transformers. I also remember an aisle dedicated to Tyco train sets and Aurora slot cars. Kinda of a sad state what this store has become - definitely a shell of it's former self. *sadface* -
I got my Genesis the second week of launch. Tried on the first but all sold out!:/ I know I got Space Harrier II, Last Battle, and Thunder Force II. I *think* that following month I picked up Mystic Defender and Super Thunder Blade. My two choices: Mystic Defender and Thunder Force II.
-
I believe it came out in the first quarter of the following year of the launch. My buddy had it on preorder, it wound up being $90.00.
-
So I'm thinking up buying a modded out Genesis rather than touching my original one I picked up at launch. Have a few question...What are the must have mods? 1)compnent audio and video jacks in the back. 2)overclocking 7 to 10mhz 3)language mod Any others that you can think of? And is option #2 on my list a absolute must? I was thinking about having this done on a (High Def Graphics) model 1 Genesis... (Sorry I don't know the model differences.)

Pre-orders for Endless Snow 2600 now being accepted
schuwalker replied to rjchamp3's topic in Atari 2600
Received my game today! Very excited and it looks awesome! -
I also recall seeing this title on sale at Kmart. Thought it was around $20 mark. Isn't this the one title that's real flaky. Basically a crap-shoot whether it works or nor because of the rom?

Marx 1974 Mechanical Pong Tabletop
schuwalker replied to Scooter83's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I have one of these as well. The one I have is green though with stickers of a male and female tennis players 70's style on the faceplate. -

Pre-ordered a boxed copy. -
I don't believe so.... Can't remember where I had seen this, but the gameplay was suppose to be centered around some clips from the movie ala Blue Thunder. I have to check the box and see if it says anything.
