If its NOS, the chances of the controllers working 100% are pretty slim. If it s a 4 port, and is missing the 4 port only switchbox, that guy gets expensive too. In the world of gaming, (as most things), untested automatically means not working. 50 bucks seems to be the going rate for untested but otherwise complete units, as long as the back door is there and not beat up. The box is a crapshoot... if it s really nice there are people here that love that stuff. I would like one, but am not going to spend the big bucks on a nice untouched original box. My guess, and I do mean guess, is that if you have the 4 port only switchbox, but are unable to hook it up due to missing parts, that someone would probably give 100-120ish as long as the box and inserts are nice. Also, don t plug just any power brick into it to try it.

Go Fish! Great great ( really great) little game, but there s a point where there s no more "levels" so to speak.Once you reach a certain size, that s it. Of course, most people wouldn t spend months practicing the game to get to that point. lol

Played around on ups's site and plugged in my address and Toronto . Looks to be that the shipping is going to be stupid, unless there s something that I m not doing right.

I think I paid 9 something for one of those, so I think the price of free would be pretty fair. PM me your address. I m clear down in Texas, so I m not sure how long or what type of shipping to even use to get to our Canadian friends, but I ll bet that I can figure it out. Does UPS exist up yonder?

Ok. So what I have here is a few nos switches I bought from Best a few years ago to replace all of mine on my 6er. How many of the momentary and how many of the toggle switches do you need? I know you just requested the copper clips, but this is what I have.

What country do you live in, and how many do you actually need?

Though released in 1980, Fishing Derby. I still play that one at least once a week.

i kinda want some of these.

Agreed. There s great information in there.

Go Fish! is still my favorite, though I wish there was a way to raise the highest possible score .

And, you re certain to find twinkies...

Wow, what an interesting read, and immense amount of work.

Great information.

Looks to be quite well executed.

That commercial is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

I ve always have a distaste for folk that are about the spectacle. But, it seems that most of the people that are money makers are all about it. Take the guy from the "Man vs Snake" documentary about the game Nibbler. He seemed a perfectly normal and nice feller, aside from being a friend of Billy Mitchel (according to Wikipedia anyhow), that accomplished a heck of a feat... He had his moment in the sun, but I had never heard of him, and don t remember ever hearing of him. As odd as it seems, I never really knew about Twin Galaxies, but knew who Billy Mitchell was. Some folk loved him, a vast amount despised him, some respected him, but everyone knew him. I ve always had a bit of wonder as to why people with natural talent or highly interesting lives have the need to embellish an already well stocked lifetime of events. I ve got a friend that is a bonafide war hero. There s not doubt that it happened, there s documentation that it happened, there s witnesses that it happened.... it happened. The trouble is that he had the tendency to take credit for other events that took place long before his time. My thought is that when you have one defining moment in life, it s hard to one up it. So, he made these outlandish claims, and lost all credibility for it. So, now that he s past, most folk just talk about his bullshit stories, and don t remember the honorable man that risked everything to save others. I know it s a completely different deal, but I wonder if the reasoning behind it is the same...

Yep. Enough times that I could make an E.T. coffee table.

Can t wait.

Excellent information there.

Had someone back in the chat days offer me one for like 7 bills. But, like the 2600 adapter, I don t think it will work with video mods.

Ok, I will. It ll be a partial before thread though, as I ve already started work on it. The Sams I ordered for it came in last week, and I m getting ready to place a parts order.

You know, and I m not trying to sound like a smart ass or anything, I promise. I had never seen an arcade of Pac Man, so I never thought it was a bad game at all. The only reference to pacman I had until my teen years was the goofy cartoon that came on with pacman, and the lenticular mug I had that showed PacMan on a screen that moved depending on how you looked at it.

It looks to be quite amazing. I hope to give it a test drive soon.

Excellent point, but I like to have a few games on cart. It just adds to the nostalgia factor when folk come over. Also, I believe I am getting to the point of being able to help support homebrewers through the purchase of carts.
