    I'm looking for these items outlined below.

     

    I'm willing to pay $55 for NTSC Boing! and $25 for Subterranea, plus reasonable shipping. I am looking for carts in good condition with labels fully intact without peeling. Scuffs and minor blemishes from normal wear and tear are okay.

     

    Thanks for looking.

    *Here are two games that were factory sealed before I opened them - If this isn't specific enough, let me know.

     

    Bump 'n' Jump:

    Cart (Blue text on black, © 1983, Singapore)

    Box 7045-0210

    2x Manual 7045-0950-G1

    Catalog 0151-0050

     

     

    Commando:

    Cart AK-043-04

    Box AK-043-02

    Manual AK-043-03

    Yellow Registration Card AG-946-89

    Blue Activision 90-Day Warranty Card AG-940-00 "Revised: 06/88"

     

     

     

    I know Bump n Jump is already listed, but I was really just curious if anyone else has ever found "double manuals" in Bump n Jump or any other M-Network game?

    I'm pretty sure that splitter will not work. I would use a regular rca switchbox, only using the a single RCA port for RCA style the RF leads from the consoles, then just use one of the RCA to coaxial adapters for the output from that switch box to the coaxial TV input. They do make straight coaxial switchboxes as well, but they aren't as easy to come by. I know I have a 2x and 3x ones from radio shack, but I'm not sure if they still carry them.

    Combat is a good game when played by two motivated players of reasonable skill. It is essentially useless otherwise.

     

    I agree. I really love this game when I have someone I can play against. But since that doesn't happen very often, there are countless other games I usually play instead.

    Some of you around here will be happy to know that Digitpress.com has been blacklisted by Wikipedia.

    Holy shit! Why would someone do that. :o

     

    And NO, I am NOT happy about that!

    It's because someone associated with DP (take a guess) was spamming DP links in various articles, as well as vandalizing other pages (removing links to AtariAge and AtariProtos.com, for instance). They left behind a pretty big trail of evidence, and DP was subsequently blacklisted from Wikipedia.

     

    ..Al

     

    There was no "they." DP.com is currently blacklisted, whatever that entails. The Wikipedia entry for DP was removed on the basis of notability, and there are still a bunch of articles that cite the DP website.

     

    Edit - edited info on blacklisting

    The first time I got to the tree level I died, but got a new high score:

     

    125,081

     

     

     

    Also, how are people scoring so high on level 1? Do the rolling heads eat gems too? Guess I should read the manual. ;)

     

    They do eat the gems, you hear a beep sound when they get eaten by the enemy. To get the high score, you have to make a mad dash to where the balls are (as they are falling into the level) in order to eat the gems by them before they start moving and eat them.

    I finally got past that first tower level with the ghost, and nearly doubled my score

    101,696

     

     

     

    Ok, I got 2,711... man that's hard. I lost 2 lives in the process this time.

    Nice job! Do you think 2711 is the max? I'm still not sure if any of the ones that start under the ball enemies get eaten.

    I'm pretty sure this is every crystal on the board totalling 2711 points, though I didn't go counting them all. ;) Since I played on a real console it was tough to get a perfect snapshot. I did it a few times and this was the best I was able to come up with.

     

    :-o :-o :-o

     

    I guess I stand corrected! Very impressive!

     

    Thanks, I wish I was better at the harder levels though! :lol:

     

    Here is my high score so far:

    I still can't beat the first "tower level" with the ghost. No matter how well I do I always end up losing all my lives.

     

    RJ - That is a nice score

     

    I managed 2,485 on the first castle. Can anyone beat that?

     

    Perhaps, this could be a challenge if Ze_ro allows it?

    I agree, it should be made an official challenge!
