  1. Yes, I did You give the same rarity to the Coleco and CBS release, which isn't the case with many of them. Also, box variations exist for quite a few of the CBS releases, who also differ in rarity.
  2. Cameron, have a bit more time on hand now to wade through that excellent site. A very good resource and info pool The only thing I would put into further discussion is applying the same rarity for Coleco and CBS releases.
  3. Great review which raises the excitement for all of us who haven't received their copies yet (like me)
  4. Received! Looking forward to play it and I'm honored to have participated in the charity
  5. Great job. Can't wait to dig through all the data
  6. Printed book arrived here in Austria today. I also assumed that glossy paper would have been used from posted pictures in the beginning of this thread, but maybe it really gives a more nostalgic feeling this way. Page cropping is within tolerable limits but far from perfect and I expect it to be better in future editions. Also I'm sure that for some of the scanned boxes, better ones can be found to include like Donkey Kong Jr for example where there is still a part of the Musicland sticker on the box and a peeled off one visible. Just get in touch with people here - I'm sure the community is willing to help out with nicer scans. For me, the price to quality ratio is not the best (paid 44 GBP shipped from Amazon.co.uk) but overall, I'm happy with the offered product and look forward to the remaining volumes.
  7. Thanks for all your hard work and dedication, Philflound
  8. Ignore list is dancing with joy today Nice website and interviews, Scalpel.
  9. Andre, I have a COMPLETE PlayStation1 PAL collection, complete Videopac, most Coleco, nearly all Vectrex, 490 Atari 2600 games, ALL of the beformentioned are BOXED and COMPLETE. Happy to prove your ridiculous point wrong. What a whining sissy you are...
  10. I might also buy this set but did make some inquiries in your main overlays thread which unfortunately didn't catch your attention so far.
  11. Great stuff, Luc. I'm gonna back this whole operation. E-mail replied to.
  12. This box design is just sooo cute. I love it and I can't wait to play this game. Another great release from you
  13. Austria is now able to play Plutos & Sirius thanks to the astonishing guy named CPUWIZ. Thanks again!
  14. I hear what you're saying. As a gamer it is easy - buy what you want to play. For collectors it can be tough, as it really comes down on your wallet. Collectors also tend to buy more than one copy (for preservation, for trading, for flipping). But you can't force the creative folk to channel their releases. Some want to see their vision materialise and have their lifeblood invested, some are in mostly for the money, which sadly reflects in poor game testing, cheaper materials, scratched boxes, multiple box variants, using cheaper shipping options to save on shipping (disregarding for what you actually paid). This is when the collector's psychology kicks in: Do I want a complete homebrew collection for my console and bite into the sour apple and say yes and amen to all what's being thrown at me or do I reach a point when I say no. What I have witnessed so far, is that most of the homebrews are available in large enough quantites or they get re-released (ColecoVision homebrews in general). You have to be a bit quicker when it comes to Intellivision homebrews, especially the IntelligentVision ones - Ms Night Stalker, Ms Pac-Man - come to mind. For me personally as a collector and not having monetary constraints, I'm not repelled by the quantity of new homebrew released but I'm becoming more and more repelled when (not cheap) homebrews are thrown at me which have cosmetic insufficiencies (like scratched boxes, dent boxes in perfectly fine shipping boxes, water marks), not working as they should due to bugs or I'm being dealt with like an idiot.
  15. Very much looking forward to this little gem and also can't wait to get a few variant 3D cart shells for my collection.
  16. Thanks, CPUWIZ, for sending out so fast. Haven't received it yet over here but I want to thank you for all you do for the community. Much appreciated!
