JPjuice23 Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I'm going to get Ms.Pac Man for both the 2600 and 7800, as well as Astroids, Centipede, Galaxian, and Joust. Should I get any other games? I'm relativity new to the Atari world, so I have no idea if the other games are good. Kangaroo looks good, but it seems to have MAD flickering from the youtube videos. Anyways, my budget is pretty unlimited, so any recommendations would be awesome thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask around here on the thread and I am sure you will be able to pay less for the entire lot than 5$ a piece...good luck... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I can't find any other $5 game place, so this seems like a huge deal to me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2600Lives Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Well, here's the games that are good. Jungle Hunt is EXCELLENT Battlezone is similarly awesome Dig Dug is fun, but it's not up to par with the arcade, natch Solaris has some of the best graphics on the 2600, period, and is a great game Galaga on the 7800 is a very good arcade translation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brojamfootball Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I think when and if you go to place an order with this company, you'll find their shipping costs are prohibitively expensive, as in more than the cost of the games themselves. Post a wanted ad in the marketplace here on AtariAge and you'll find someone who can beat that deal. The O'Shea company, once upon a time, sold these games for under a dollar each with much fairer shipping rates and many folks stocked up.

VectorGamer Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Someone correct me if I am wrong, but these are sealed games. As a collector, I would not advise buying these only to open them up for play. You can get these games loose far cheaper than $5 a pop. For $5 a pop, I would buy these and leaved them sealed.

Mirage Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I agree with the others. If you want to buy sealed to keep them sealed, you may want to look for these on ebay as many have extras. Or post a wanted for them in the marketplace. If nothing else, you'll save on shipping and hopefully get them packed better than O'Shea usually does/did. Plus, these may be all going to the smelter soon, who knows if they're still selling them. If you want good games to play, you can get all these and many many more and spend a lot less money. Most all of those can be had for much less than $5 each new. Just buy a few lots of commons and you'll get the many of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
