    Ebay fees need to be covered. Are you not familiar with Ebay? Fees are incorporated in most sellers shipping and handling rates.

     

    You are the kind of re-seller discussed in several other threads, re-selling is one thing, greed is another. :roll:

     

    Somebody got the time to report this clown? How do they always find AA? Can you people please stop inviting them here?

    I bought these for my personal collection.
    Apologies in advance. I can't help myself. For the most part, I've never had a problem with anyone engaging in arbitrage and profiteering on eBay as long as he/she plays by the rules. But...

     

    I've read this particular mea culpa of yours (and its variants) too many times. Balanced against past self-representation of your "collecting", your present disparagement of these items' collective worth (below), and your activity on eBay for years, how can anyone read this claim and not burst into laughter?

     

    I don't know whether you're banking on poor memories in the long-term or what, but c'mon... You profit from eBay. Fine. No problem. Why fabricate the same tired cover at the drop of a hat?

     

    I personally do not believe that these are worth as much as some people believe that they are worth.
    Others have already offered the obvious retort far up-thread.

     

    If they were worth that much they would have sold for more [...] These were up on eBay for several days and didn't get much interest either.
    You've traded on eBay too long to really believe what you're saying here. In this particular neck of the woods*, eBay can be, and often is, a crap shoot and hardly reflective of anything other than a mob's fickleness in expressing through bidding its collective gullibility, impatience, and materialism. Evaluations of actual worth are frequently secondary.

     

    Personally, I thought it immaterial that you were mixed up in this thread until you opened your mouth (in the above-quoted reply). Frankly, I think it's nice to see you're still willing (now and again) to run the full course of an auction between attempts to sweet-talk naive sellers into ending listings early. :roll:

     

    Again, apologies. I just couldn't keep everything in.

     

     

    * To label retrogame eBaying a "market" would lend it an air of rationality usually absent.

    C'mon guys, don't lost the main purpose of this post that is to find someone who could make the Thea Realm Fighters prototype available here at the Atari Age for everybody!!! And I don't care about the 'status' of the source code, if someone get it compiled and working, that's fine!

     

    If you want to talk about fighting games in general, please open another topic.

     

    Thanks.

    Roger.

     

    If it happens anytime soon it will only be available from Jaguar Sector 2 and you will have to be a registered member there.

     

    Will it come with that 'special' Kool Aid?

    Board has 1982 date so it's not likely to be a repro. However those EPROM looks to be soldered in and not socketed. Magazine reviews? Have someone dump the EPROM and compare to released game (if any) to see if it's different.

     

    Is that true? Did magazine reviewers simply have eprom boards to test out instead of carts? That would explain why some mags managed to talk about games that were never released. It would also go a long way to explain how in one review they gave a totally different account of Pac Kong in which they talked about a little Pac Man having to climb girders avoiding little ghosts. ;)

     

    He pulled that explanation out of his ass, go through your Colecovision carts (if you even own any carts for any system) and weigh them!

    that game looks really cool

    In case you don't get this game and were looking to get it inexpensively, 2600 Gauntlet is available on the 2600 256 in one multicart. Hope this helps.

    You can pick up the original prom chips pretty cheap too. :)

     

    @hotrods4fun those Bomb carts that you are biding on are PAL. I hope they don't come back as unknown. :ponder:

    Man, what do they feed you kids in school these days? :ponder:

     

    This generation of consoles is not designed for 14 year olds, just thought I'd mention that. All the adults I know, could buy all three of them, without shedding all these tears you guys shed. Or are those tears still from the pain, from the time when you got tattooed with your favorite videogame manufacturers logo? :lol:

    Hey Scott (do you mind if I call you that?), did your mom drop you on your head a lot, when you were a kid?

     

    Q: What is a banana?

    A: A yellow fruit, that I wouldn't mind shoving up your ass.

    Now back to Atlantis II ... I am 100% sure that there are more than 10 of these, NOBODY in their right mind would produce 10 mask ROMS.

    Listen, if you don't want to reply (or be helpful) then don't.

     

    Thanks for your help. :roll:

     

    I vote "open season" on newbies who respond to someone doing nothing but help others, with rolling eyeballs.

     

    <Grab the shotguns>

     

    I understand at this point that you would need to play the game (or try to) to determine whether it was a PAL or NTSC version.

     

    Then why ask?
