  1. Was given a random basement box by my wife's friend, she just wanted it out of the house and her husband could not stand to see it just go to dump. When my wife brought it home I discovered I had been given... SNES: Fire Striker (!) Mario Paint and Mouse and Pad Super Mario World Final Fantasy Mystic Quest Link to the Past SFII Turbo And a TOTALLY busted SNES console that IS going to the dump (sorry man) NES: Super Mario/Track and Field/Duck Hunt SMB 2 Win Lose or Draw Solstice a few other randos AND A full Atari 2600 sixer set up (console, PS, controllers, paddle controllers). I haven't cleaned this out yet as judging by the condition I expect....bugs inside. But the SNES/NES games I cleaned up. Most I had but Fire Striker and SMB 2 (which somehow I didn't have) were real nice additions. SMW I was able to upgrade from my toasty label. Was a nice afternoon surprise.
  2. *Checks Maximus' location*.....I KNEW that was a Battlehawks logo at the 50! Though I am in CT my buddy and I adopted them for the XFL comeback year. Liked the unis, and once I heard the Qbs nickname was "the Throwin' Samoan", I was in. Best fans in the XFL, that place was always packed. Glad you came back to this Atarius, loved the older rushing only version and still play it to this day.
  3. Yeah, that's why I need this, for my 'broken cracked case' ahem....it's certainly not for one of the three 7800s I have sitting in a box (which doesn't count my playin' console). *looksleftlooksright*
  4. Any chance you could make a glow in the dark version to match my Baby Pac Cart? (even if just the strip was gitd the relief of the graphics would be amazing) Also, and Bob might blush at this, humble guy that he is...I think it should be a "signature edition". Put your name on that thing!
  5. So I can get one copy of Ninja Golf for .80...or three Salem Fanny Packs for .75...game set match, Salem! I know how to invest in collectibles, baby!
  6. Problem is (I believe) there are PAL versions which are unrecognizable from NTSC games for MOST games in the library, at least most of the silver box ones if I recall correctly. Some games like F-14 and Super Skateboarding's PAL releases came in unique soft cases, easy to spot from US releases. But for almost everything else in a silver box, from Mean 18 on down, the PAL versions, I believe, look exactly the same, no marking differences (fellas correct me if I am wrong here). Only way I know of to tell is to open the game and see if the screen rolls on your NTSC machine.
  7. I was about to say...anyone wants to sell me one for 182, hit your boy up! Xenophobe, Mario Bros, Kung Fu Master, Impossible Mission, all look undervalued to me too. Thing with Tank Command IMO is it is one of those ones that is SO infrequently listed (at all) that every sale is semi-unique. Whereas all the others are fairly common occurrences throughout a year, even Mean 18 and Ikari. I feel like some people are buying PAL copies without realizing it too (as the collector type never intends to play them anyway, just slab them or whatever). That throws a weird x factor in there of "bad" sales IMO.
  8. Traxx if you want a 50% payment for now via Paypal, I'm happy to do so.
  9. Seems to be the assumption is all the damage happened in the first household who bought them. While that is possible....these things have banged around how many yard sales, basements, funco lands, trade tables at dumps, etc at this point? The stuff is just plain old (I'm willing to bet most of us aren't "minty" any more either!), and for much of it's life after it was new BUT before "retro" became a thing, they were viewed as near worthless! That's not going to lead to white glove handling on tag sale day. OTOH, you savages who wrote your names on your games in permanent marker BITD, well, you're dead to me.
  10. Dang...went the extra mile and kept the two button support, even though I don't think any twin stick game uses it. PROPER.
  11. I finally opened Knight Guy in Low Res World last night....wow! Highly recommended.
  12. This looks great, and a unique addition to the 7800 library. I gotta say, also try Atarius' "Touchdown Challenge". It's great simple fun.
  13. Ha, I had one of those for a while! Is not a terrible idea at all but the Phantom has no Select or Reset buttons on the right hand side of it's case (MAYBE could be added without making it look crappy but it'd be risky), and the slot is actually a fairly tightish fit on their NES style carts if I recall right...I'm not sure a 7800 cart would actually fit. It'd be tight, in any case! Wish someone would get the mold to the Nolan Bushnell signature cases, and start mass producing them! Or maybe Bob D. makes it back to his 7800 Junior design....I'd prefer that over all options honestly!
  14. I got the stickers AND the hat in the same lot on ebay years ago so sadly, nope!
  15. There is also a hat. I have one in a box somewhere. I had some nice vintage stickers of the same logo I used on a "Real Sports" controller.
  16. Rx, free bump for you so someone can get this beauty and I can stop trying to make math work in ways it won't. (no TurboGrafx kiosk for sale by any chance I suppose? XD )
  17. Goddamit....I just checked the map and I'm in CT. And my wallet just looked at me and laughed.
  18. The design of that compared to the ProStick....wow. Actual metal contacts. I bet they hold up better than those damn dome switches...
  19. Dang the 7800 looks nice in white Bob. I know somebody here has a nice red-painted one too. I considered plexi windows and interior lights on a 7800 case at one point, and may still do it (I have all the parts I'd need already) but I actually think that type of mod on other systems looks kind of goofy soooo.....
  20. Shoot guys I thought I had posted the vinyl dimensions somewhere in the 7800 forum....putting that stuff on the 7800 is VERY easy as essentially it is just three rectangles cut from the same width (one with the cartridge port cut out). The 7800 wraps easy without a heat gun etc. You can do this with 10 bucks of vinyl from ebay, a good ruler, and a sharp exacto knife. So far as case upgrades, I really wish someone would get that Nolan Bushnell model mold (if it exists) and start selling aftermarket cases.
  21. Dopy I pay pretty stupid amounts of money for plastic all the time and I think this is cuckoo bananas nutso. If I knew someone who paid 20k for a console, I'd only think they were cool if that person was also helping the hell out of everyone he could. Cuz if you got money like that, you should spread it around. This thing would be the crown jewel of my PC-E collection if I owned it, and even at something like 5k or something I could afford...I couldn't look my wife or kids in the face if I bought it. I'd be embarrassed. I bet it sells for less than a 1/4 of this price eventually. PC-E scene is not that large, nor is everyone interested in the South Korean part of it.
  22. For the PCE boys: https://www.ebay.com/itm/125388940054?hash=item1d31c36316:g:cgMAAOSwmwJio0WX&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAA4O0PO1RMuQggHfiFvNRDBPU5nzXmWKVmXYueHJS%2Fu2PNq5TmQwKsRxv5GThEf7tPRuox41Ng7UAaFbhqFEa0r%2FxisT7vMtn%2BYkZ63OX2Z4x3bEnHKlRHgSshChuUtlUAYmsHpq6OhlUOrrF3%2BGBsu9Ac8TOq7fmSLmue%2FYiQqMko5L1iL%2FUmk%2BjAx0dXo%2FnWxsfJfrKXxe%2BfgHn%2Fo%2BVmqnVy6KtWPLnG%2FBCWfK%2BYuSQpd1ode1m6Hyk1HhoMZlRUq8ad%2BK5se2wxNO8GHeJAjYJdxrq6u0nfsukO8YSiL7JY|tkp%3ABFBM1qe1tbVg Have only seen two (counting this one) on ebay in 15+ years.....last one had no box and was missing a piece, I believe sold for less than 2500.
