Impressive find at a flea market.

[NightSprinter]

I went to the flea market off highway 92 Saturday on the way home from visiting a friend, and managed to snag four carts for the 8-bit for a total of $10. The games are as follows:

 

Soccer (Thorn EMI)

K-Razy Shoot-Out (K-Byte version, worth $25 alone apparently, rated R5 by DP)

Q*Bert

Frogger

 

I'm rather impressed with what I found.

Oooh, that's a classic. A friend of mine kept his 130XE only to play it, basically, after he switched to the ST/TT line.

Didn't know there was a cart version...

Q*Bert

I think I have that one lying around, used to belong to my cousin's kids. I'll get it out and play it again, it's fun. I think it's one of the carts which I managed to crack, just to see how it was done.

 

Hey, for some reason it doesn't want to work on the 130XE... works fine on my 800XL, though.

Would that be highway 92 in Kennesaw (or maybe Acworth), Georgia? There used to be a guy there who sold mostly NES and SNES games, but had a decent selection of 2600 carts... I never saw any 8-bit stuff though.

 

Maybe 10-12 years ago I used to find Commodore 64 stuff there, but never Atari 8-bit.

 

I'm rather impressed with what I found.

 

So am I, especially if it's the same flea market I think it is.

That's a most righteous avatar you have there MEtalGuy66...

 

 

I'm going to have to ask Carmel if he's got any ATRs of Vic-20 games...
