Hardcore collectorin'

[racerx]

Grabbed a couple of pics today after I realized my interests overlapped. I wouldn't mind a Missile Command but have no real love for Defender.

Nice bring all 3 next year. Maybe get a spot were can have the jagfest next to your arcades

[Rick Dangerous]

All of those Jag CD games cost more than the cabinets

Chances are, that beautiful looking GORF cab cost LESS than the Jag CD copy sat on the CP.

Wow, those systems are in great shape!

 

I've got a Missile Command and a Galaga. My Missile Command is about an 8 out of 10, but the Galaga is like, a working system, in a cabinet that's barely holding together.

I've been able to pick all my machines up without having to resort to shipping. Unless it's something just super rare the $300-$400 to ship doesn't make sense. I've lost out on a couple cabs because I didn't want to ship them.

Why is it so impossible to do a re print of gorf cd? It's a homebrew and someone must know who has the source code right? Let's kickstart that shit...

You can find Gorf on the web and use Jiffi to make a .cdi of it.

Please don't get my brag thread locked.

Please don't get my brag thread locked.

 

 

Do discussions about Gorf get the threads locked? I know there was some kind of licensing disagreement, and that's why it wasn't released, but is there something else I'm missing?

So I guess Time-Warner owns the rights to Gorf now?

[Rick Dangerous]

My work computer has no CD-R drive unfortunately, and my MacBook Pro is 6 years old and has one foot in the grave and another on a banana peel. If someone would be willing to whip me up a copy of GORF CD, with the label, manual, and cover art, I would "make it worth your while" wink wink, nundge nudge. Please PM me if anyone has the time and energy to do this, I would be eternally in your debt(and I will pay you of course.)

Hmmm... could be dodgy territory this as, tbh, the ACTUAL legitimate GORFs - as far as I'm aware - aren't really any different from the standard of item you are requesting here (re: printed CD-R etc)...

[Zerosquare]

Yup, I don't think discussing homebrew piracy is a good idea.

[Rick Dangerous]

Well does anyone know who owns the rights then? Because I'd love to contact them directly and gently request they print another run, or if its okay if someone else makes a few copies for jag collectors who want it. If you can find the cdi on the web then the developer must have released it to the public domain, and I doubt time warner has the time to care about a jag CD hombrew

[racerx]

Well, since my crossover collecting thread has been dragged irreparably OT...

I'm not sure why TIme Warner would care about this game either way...it's a 3D Stooges production of a Bally Midway game. But any discussion about copying Gorf or Battlesphere is usually a surefire

[Rick Dangerous]

Well I learned that lesson about battle sphere, now I suppose I have learned it about Gorf.... But seriously someone PM me

For the record... the red stuff is totally permenant, the blue stuff is temporary, and the green stuff is kind of in-between.

[racerx]

Branching off a little from the Jag...

 

 

[Punisher5.0]

Nice. Looks like you have a whole arcade in your house!

 

 

+1 for the Dune book

[+Cobra Kai]

Did Radikal Bikers run on the same technology as War: Final Assualt? Or was it more primitive? I think I played that one in the arcades around the same time as W:FA.

[Major Havoc 2049]

I loved Radical Bikers and Surf Planet back in the day, near the end of Atari Games. I know Atari Games was only the publisher, but they were still fun arcade games.
