  1. I was able to order without any problems... at least until I see what "extras" Rev includes this time 😳
  2. I'm not sure how an update to gameplay would work so I'd trust you on that front. But a new catalog of songs would be great.
  3. Not only would I want to buy a milti-cart version of Super Pro ESC games, I really want an updated Melody Blaster CIB as well! Even if you just do another board release, I'm sure Steve or I can come up with a nice box kit to flesh it out 👍
  4. Honestly, I've instructed my wife to simply post the entire collection as 1 lot on eBay. It's not the best way to maximize a full 125's value but it will net her the biggest return she can get with the least amount of effort. It's also likely the best way to make sure it winds up in other collector's hands rather than Goodwill or a dump. I could also just will it to someone in this community as a backup plan but then I'd worry about getting shanked in Portland by one of you shifty types!
  5. Screw you guys, I'm immortal! So send all your Intellivision collections to me if you want them to be maintained forever
  6. The first programmer/publisher to release a viable port of Spy Hunter for me gets first choice of one of JasonlikesINTV's kidneys!
  7. I generally keep my carts in the original boxes. I still play them but I have extra carts for the more common games so I don't have to keep messing with their boxes and putting extra wear on them. Otherwise, they live in an old china cabinet I restored: The drawers in the lower center are felt lined and have dividers that fit loose carts nicely. I believe these were originally for silverware: My current solution for the games I am playing through are the amazing cart holders Caleb Garner makes. I have 2 racks of 10, one for homebrews and another for the calssic games I play regularly: I seriously love the racks you found though, cvga. That's an awesome way to display the 125 in cart form and still has easy access for gameplay.
  8. Seriously happy and relieved to hear you're doing well, Hank! Also, your son in law is an absolute artist. That's amazing!

BigDumer 25. Sharkcharmer 26. GrizzLee 26 is pretty good considering it isn't even summer yet. I'm actually glad they haven't moved it to August like they had planned before the pandemic. I prefer autumn in the northwest myself.
  10. I believe that is called a "Golden" collection by the Brotherhood's standards. Still an amazing accomplishment. It's scary how damn accurate this statement is! Like I seriously felt it again as I was reading that, lol
  11. I've been to Reno a few times and there are some nice parts. Tahoe is ALL beautiful though!
  12. I have to say, these came out amazingly well! The color is much closer to red than the orange my phone makes it look like. It does that to the red stripe on my Deuce as well *shrug* I'm using this one to keep the new homebrews that I'm working playing through organized. I have an identical one for my classic favorites (not shown) so I don't have to keep getting them out of their boxes. Yes, I just recently got a copy of Yogi's Frustration. Took me forever to find one! The text and logo look great though I may paint the front of the lettering black eventually. So, if you were thinking about ordering one of these you can rest assured they are excellent! The overlay slots work nicely as well, I just never get those out of the box. I did test them out though, I just forgot to take any photos of that. Anyway, thank you Caleb! I will likely order some more soon 👍
  13. I like to approach Portland via jumbo jet but you do you man! Seriously though, if I lived in the Reno/Tahoe area I'd probably not want to leave all that often either.
  14. 2023 is included in the "these years" subset. Just sayin' 😉
  15. I think the issue here is the seller believes they have a rare game that is complete in box. In reality, they do not. You have to ask yourself as a seller, "Who wants to buy my item?" In the case of this copy of Mountain Madness, that would be the people who either play or collect Intellivision games (most of us do both). People wanting to simply play the game on original hardware will only value the cart. They don't want to pay a premium for a box and manual they don't need especially when those are so damaged that they can't flip them to cover for the cart they actually wanted**. Collectors will want a CIB copy because this helps complete their collection. The issue they likely see with this listing is that they will still need to replace the box with a better condition version to satisfy their collection. In effect, it makes this "CIB" listing no more attractive than a plain cart offering to them. Since these carts go for between $80-120 on their own, the market is basically nonexistant for this particular offering at nearly $200 as neither target group will value it anywhere near the full CIB price one would expect an undamaged boxed copy to bring. I think your offer of $110 was actually pretty solid considering the condition of the box and manual, which is also in rough shape. I'm not saying neither has any value. The manual can likely be flattened out again and the box does make for a nice placeholder. But neither would fetch anywhere close to full value in their current state. A nice reproduction box would be just as good a placeholder as this original damaged one at less than $25. Either way, you'd still need to source a replacement to consider that item checked off in your collection. **Ever see a rare original empty game box for sale on eBay and wonder how it survived the ages while the cart didn't? What usually happenes is the seller only wanted the cart and knows they can flip the box and manual for most of if not even more than the cost of just the cart. Makes building a cart only 125 even cheaper than you think.
  16. Intresting variant of the Armor Battle cart here. No line, Hong Kong label with the black tank logo: eBay Item: 314564825513 ENHANCE!!! E
