  1. Hahaahahah, yes, exactly. I know it wasn't 2600 related but we all like to discuss our finds in the wild. It will *never* happen again.
  2. I picked up Final Fantasy complete in the box for $4. Everything is there including the map (and all in good condition)
  3. Does anyone know of any flea markets in the Chicago area?
  4. Yeah, just be happy that the person found something. I'm sure we've *all* bragged about some big find at one time or another.
  5. Speaking of comic shops, I found one I had never visited before on a road trip last weekend and ended up finding Gravitar and Crossbow both in the box with instructions for $3 and $4 apiece. I almost flipped
  6. never mind, I found it. Its commercial #4 incase anyone else was wondering.
  7. There were Lynx commercials? Geeesh! I never saw any form of on-air advertising for the Lynx. The only reason I bought one was for S.T.U.N. Runner (and it was a pretty good conversion)
  8. I was the one who posted asking about Lady Bug for the 2600. A lady I met at the Goodwill store read me a list of her 2600 games and Lady Bug was one of them. She lived 45 miles away and wanted too much for the system ($30) and after reading that Lady Bug never came out I figured it wasn't worth the drive considering it was probably the Coleco version.
  9. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...indexURL=0&rd=1 Why?
  10. I would have to say either Pitfall or H.E.R.O. Man, I loved H.E.R.O. back in the day. It had the same addicting quality as Bruce Lee for the Commodore 64.
  11. I picked up an Atari 2600 console with all hookups and 2 controllers plus 14 games (including Krull, Sorcerer's Apprentice, Bermuda Triangle, and Laser Blast) for $18.50 + $10 shipping. I don't know how I got it so cheap but I did.
  12. Amen to that! Hopefully we'll start picking more goodies up.
  13. I was on a road trip this afternoon and made a wrong turn and happened across a comic shop that I had never been to before. I found Crossbow and Gravitar both in mint boxes with instructions for $4 apiece. Not too bad and completely a surprise. The 3 Goodwill stores I went to today didn't have anything. You always run across something when you aren't looking for it.
  14. Ok, thanks for the help. The price was a little steep for the system anyways. She wanted $30 for an Atari 2600 with 4 joysticks and 14 common games.
  15. Hmmmmm, a search on eBay brought up Ladybug for Atari 2600. Could this be the Colecovision version as well?
  16. Ok, the reason I asked about Ladybug is that I am going to look at an Atari 2600 system with 14 games tomorrow. One of the games is Ladybug. I guess we'll see when I get over there.
  17. I don't see it listed on the AtariAge list. Thanks.
  18. My girlfriend and I hit 4 Goodwill stores on a road trip yesterday and I found the following: Asteroids Basketball Donkey Kong Planet Patrol Super Challenge Baseball Pac-Man Warlords Night Driver Nothing rare mind you but they were only $.63 apiece so I couldn't pass them up. I also found a nice leather briefcase which was new for $3.88!
  19. BTW, its BATMITERETURNS, not BITEMAN, but anyway, no, you didn't spoil my day but this brings back all the bad memories of when I used to collect toys and the damn toy horders would pay off the stock boys to keep complete cases in the back for them.
  20. Friends in low places take the fun out of collecting. Half the fun is walking into a store and seeing that certain rare cart you have been looking for and making your way to it as quickly, and calmly as possible before someone snatches it up. Having people at your "classified" location who work on the "inside" ruins it for the rest of us.
  21. Well I hit our bi-annual flea market on Saturday and went through 50 or 60 booths and came across a complete SNES for $5 (including two controllers) and passed on a Sega Genesis 3 for $20. I also passed on a table top Coleco Donkey Kong electronic game for $5 because it was missing the battery cover. Not a single Atari, Coleco, or even NES game. Anyone else find anything worth while?
  22. I found Pitfall and Fun With Numbers for $.38 apiece and WCW vs NWO for the N64 for $3. Thats it.
  23. EeeeGADZ man! How can you say that Double Dragon was one of the best arcade ports? Maybe if you squinted your eyes and drank a pint of beer........
  24. I would have to say Zaxxon because it didn't even resemble the arcade game. The point of view was changed completely. As far as Donkey Kong, Pac-man, Q-bert, etc, at least they resembled those games.
