IMO $45-55
That's nothing. I thought you were going to say $1000.

Ok, I think you must be pulling our collective leg.
Bernstein Bears is extremely rare..
No, I'm serious. What's it worth? I couldn't find any on Ebay.

Hey, check this out, I bought some more. I won 2 local Ebay auctions for Nintendo games and since they were local, I just went by their house and picked them up. Got them both for $10 total.

Some pretty fun games. Then they said they had more so I found these and picked them up for $10 each. Captain Comic has the instructions.

Then I got into the controllers and picked up a wireless Gamecube controller for $15 and got a Starfox manual for free.

Then I found a huge box full of Atari games so I picked these up. Are they worth anything? Are they fun? I got them for $3 each. I don't even know what the shark one is.

Then, as a Transformers collector as well I found this and bought it for $40. Looks like a normal Slag with a broken tail right?

Wrong. It's the ultra rare Canadian version with the red face, red hands and white legs. This piece is now the center piece for my collection, I never thought I'd see the day that a Canadian Slag would be among my Transformers display.

Anyway, thanks for looking, sorry I went on a tangent away from Atari but I just had to share my joy!

A guy local to me (Jezzbovision) recently sold his 5 Megamans in a lot and got $177.50
Sounds about right, numbers 1 and 5 are the most money there. There is also a number 6 I don't have and looks like that guy didn't have neither. It sells for about $60, I should have it soon. Had it in my hands at the expo last weekend but had already spent way too much money. It was either that or Metal Storm and Metal Storm won out.

SNES Blackthorne, Mega Man, and Castlevania all are higher priced items.
The NES Mega Man's are sought after as well. Nice set of dragon Warrior's, and the Bunch Games titles are somewhat more rare for the system.
What drove this guy to give all this stuff to you? Just curious.
Ya, I just picked up most of those Mega Man cartridges, got most of them in the last 2 weeks:
Mega Man - $50 (toy expo last weekend)
Mega Man 2 - $20 (Ebay)
Mega Man 4 - $30 (Ebay) for one copy last month and I got another in the lot from that guy
Mega Man 5 - $65 (toy expo last weekend)
Dragon Warrior - free, a friend bought it for $7 at a flea market to play at my house
Dragon Warrior - second copy, paid $5 at a toy expo last year
Dragon Warrior - got another one in the lot from that guy
Dragon Warrior 2 - $5 at a toy expo last year
Dragon Warrior 3 - $55 at a toy expo last weekend
I also picked up Metal Storm at the Toy Expo, that's a pretty rare game. I bought it from a guy that had 3 copies of Little Samson, one complete in box. I held 2 of them in my hands, should have taken a picture of it.
And like I said, I created this guy a Hyperspin system so as payment he gave me everything I helped him replace. If you don't know what Hyperspin is, check it out. The system I set him up with has every Atari game every created on one system.

Okay, here are some of the other things I got in the pile from him.
Playstation 2 games, anything of interest?

And the controllers for the Atari 2600.

My complete collection of N64 games. Top 2 rows he gave me, bottom 2 rows I got myself.

Super Nintendo games he gave me. Anything of interest?

And some of the more notable pieces of my personal NES collection. This is the system I actively collect for. And I play all my games regularly.



Boxes:

Yeah it's a powerglove. I had the misfortune of working with the prototype, and writing the first doomed game that technically supported it. Enough said.
I have one of these somewhere in the cupboard, still. Dark days, dark memories...
That's really cool, is there any sort of prototype cartridge for this game?

some of the FUN ones to play ...
Spider fighter , Kaboom! , Seaquest, Circus Atari, Snoopy, Ms Pac-man (the better of the two) , Phoenix, Space Invaders, Berzerk, Asteroids.
I haven't played all that are in your pics
I'm surprised NOT to see "Combat"
... also surprised not at-least 3 of them 
be a good time to post vid to youtube & share the joy with us all

I was very surprised not to see Combat, and actually quite disappointed. I liked that game as a kid, I was looking forward to playing it again. Then I saw it at Cash Converters (second hand store) for $1 so the disappointment quickly passed. They have piles of old games, they've had a huge pile of Intellivision boxed games sitting there for months, all $5 each.

That's a wico 3-way joystick. I had one back in the 80's. I remember paying more for the interchangeable ball, bat and grip.
I still have the ball and the grip, but no longer have that joystick. Can't find one for sale, either.
They made so many regular ones, that if someone does have one, they may not know you can pull the red part off and change it.
Nice, I have the red grip as well, he was telling me I can interchange them.
Smurfs Save the Day needs some extra stuff in order to run properly. Reason its rare are the standard stuff. Released in lower quantities when it came out, not a lot of copies sold, so now there aren't as many copies available and the ones that are get snatched up by collectors.
These days it seems like anything rarity 3 or higher (using Atari Age rarity guide here) can bring in a decent amount of change on ePay. So that's definitely a good one for hanging onto until you get some unpaid medical bills or something.
Canada. Free health care!

That's an extremely solid game lot to start with. Clean em up and get them all off the floor and on display for all to see.
That also looks like a pretty clean, non-yellowed SNES. Hang on to that one.
I like to play all my games so they won't be on display but I'l definitely find a better place to store them. And yes, I was very surprised to see how white the Super Nintendo was but he had a flood in his house years ago and the particular box with the Super Nintendo and N64 had water stains on it. When I took both systems out, they were full of mold. I cleaned them up with a cloth and some mild detergent, they came out all right. Not sure if they work though.
NES Powerglove!!! jealous!
yeah, the cart with the T-handle is possibly Spider MAze which is pretty rare and worth definitely over $100.
Smurf's save the day is a hard to find one as well, and that snoopy: red baron game is a slightly rare one too.
pretty darn good haul, especially for free! WOW! so jealous.
you have an Atari 2600 Jr. there. just a later model that came out, still just a 2600.
I see you have Ocarina of Time for N64. a Gold cart too, yeah, that'll go for a pretty penny if you decide to sell it.
I'd tell you if the snes games you have are rare or not, but I can't see them.
Yes, I have 2 Power Gloves now, I actually have a Christmas video of me opening mine as a child. I used it for about 5 minutes, then put it in a drawer somewhere, so lame.
Wow, Spider Maze is quite rare, I had no idea! I also didn't know about Smurfs but when I put that cartridge in it didn't seem to work. He said he had some sort of Smurfs adapter attachment or something he's giving me, I just assumed you needed that for the game to work. Maybe I should have jiggled it or something.
Ocarina Of Time, yes, he gave me a few games in that price range. Ocarina Of Time, A Link To The Past, Super Castlevania IV, Dodgeball and Mega Man 4. They all seem to be worth about $40. He also gave me a 76 in 1 Nintendo game cartridge.
I'll post a better picture of my Super Nintendo games when I get a chance.
Smurfs Save The Day and Spider Maze are the ones to take care of.

Excellent, maybe I'll put these aside, though I like to play my games. I can't decide. Why are they so rare? Any reason?

Hey guys, I've been looking for an old Atari 2600 for a long time but just couldn't afford one, they go for about $120 here with a pile of games. So I put a Hyperspin system together for a guy just recently and he dug a pile of boxes out of his basement for me, said I could just have them. And this is only half, he said he has this many again he's going to give me.

Just behind the games on the right you can see the 2600 with the metal stripe across it. I thought they were all wooden, never seen one like this before, but it works great. I tried the games and only 2 or 3 didn't work. Here are the games, is anything here rare and should be kept somewhere safer than the floor?



Nice to meet everyone, I just came over here looking for information on the second Air Raid box which was found, I thought it was an interesting story. And up until last week I thought it was only the one box. Now I'm reading through the whole thread where people thought it was an April Fools joke. Hilarious.

New here, check out this box of games I was given
in Atari 2600
