orangest Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 At least for the time being, to soak in a little McDowell/Hamill/Ginger action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreammary Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 I found a copy of Satomi Hakkenden for Famicom a week back, it arrived today and is amazing. Great RPG! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STICH666 Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Got this lot from a garage sale for $5. Sorry for the craigslist pic but that's all I could get since I can't find the original image. The lot included the following.. Commodore 64 with a 1541 Disk Drive and the CM-141 monitor. The 64 itself is in fantastic shape with only minor yellowing and as far as I can tell, all of the keys work. The disk drive is yellowed but does power on and has some trouble reading floppies. The monitor powers on and seems to work fine but I have nothing to fully test it with. It also came with: 2x serial cables 1x video cable 1x power supply 2x TAC-2 Joysticks 1x Mouse 1x Suncom Animation Station touchpad 1x Epyx Fast Load cartidge and roughly 50 floppies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpendTooMuchOnAtari Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 (edited) Went to a local Flea this morning. Very light turnout for a Mother's Day but found this lot for $13.00 Magic Darts! I remember that one by Romstar, if you are interested in selling that one, let me know. Great find by the way, congrats!

I'd twist your arm to sell it to me if it weren't a matter of shipping it. AX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STICH666 Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Thanks guys. It had been sitting in a box in a garage for over 20 years and everything powered on first try. So anyway is that monitor really that rare? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpendTooMuchOnAtari Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 I hit a used game store this afternoon that I only been to once. Their prices are pretty crazy on old school games, I saw a nice looking cart only 2600 Springer but it was $100. They had a ton of great PS1, SNES and NES titles but it seems like they take the ebay average and add a percentage to get their price. With all that being said, I did come away with a few games. I don't have Crypts of Chaos and thought 6 bucks was about right, certainly not a great deal but don't feel ripped off either. I have no idea what the DS games are "worth" but Time Hollow looked interesting and it's Konami so thought I'd give it a try. And, I've always liked Snowboard Kids and it's by ATLUS so 4 bucks was a no-brainer for me. Here's a pic: $8 - DS TIME HOLLOW (Complete) $4 - DS SNOWBOARD KIDS (Complete) $6 - 2600 CRYPTS OF CHAOS (Cart Only) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theredlineboss Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 I think I did fairly well this week. Here is what I got from a Value World: All the above was $25- I'm very pleased! Then I picked these up separately at a Salvation Army: Basically 6 bux for the cases, 2 for Xevious. Also got Mutant League Football (not pictured) for the Genesis from Value World. Came without a case, so I just printed out a new cover & used it to repurpose a Madden case. -Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty Harry Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 (edited) A few things I recently purchased off the local classifieds. Commodore 64 with vinyl cover Commodore 64 user guide and disc drive manual that I don't own lol Old video game magazine that the fella threw in, talks alot about the Vertex Super action controllers that the fella moded with colecovision controllers. The sticks are from an old table top game. The controllers actually work very well. Colecovision expansion module #1 with original box, manual and styrofoam.

mmbe Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 This little package arrived on Friday off of Ebay. Total for this buy it now purchase was $50 including shipping. As you can see from the picture, the glasses are missing both arms but still work well. I would compare the 3D effect to that of the old View Master slides. All of the games are complete with box and manual. I need to get a light gun so I can play Missle Defense 3-D. I think my local Disc Replay has one in stock for around $10.

ATARI7800fan Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Nice Wingcommander. Is that one going into the orangest collection? AX Love that game, one of the major reasons I want to get a 3DO someday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spyhinx Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Hi New member here hope this is the right forum I recently found an old watch stashed in a box in my attic. I think it belonged to my older brother in the 80's. When I checked on it I found it was supposedly highly collectible. Can anyone tell me about it. It is a space attacker watch by nelsonic. I would be grateful for any info. Thanks JIM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
