Does anybody own an unopened copy of Swordquest Waterworld?

[bigfriendly]

If yes how much $$$ did you have to surrender to get it and how did you obtain it? Feel free to tell me your story as I would really like to hear about it.

 

Thanks

At a CGE live auction, in either 2010 or 2012, a shrinkwrapped copy of Waterworld went for around $400.

One sold on Ebay within the past 18 months. I believe it went for around $800, but I could be wrong, it may have ended up higher. The box had a crease in it.

No.. But I own an unopened can of whoop a$$!!

 

If you really need the game I think it's on the Atari Anthology for several formats!

 

(I understand you likely want it for collecting value, though.)

Yes, my copy of Waterworld is still sealed. Shrink has warped the box a bit thought, which is par for the course over 30 years. I believe I paid $75 for it, but this was 10+ years ago.

River, why didn't you open/play it when you bought it? (I'm going on the assumption you bought it when it was released and you as a child vs a few years ago)

are you talking to Mayhem? Ten years ago Atari was not a current system so it was most likely purchased as a collectable.

I wish I could've gotten a sealed copy for $75.

I'm unsure of the exact price, but it wasn't a huge amount. One of those "yeah I'll take that" moments. I think it was soon after or before getting the Quadrun, and I decided to go for all the Atari Club games. Took an age to find the Gravitar though... I bought that from someone who got it traded into his store for $1!

I don't even own an OPENED copy of it, it's the Atari needle in the haystack
