Jaxivision Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 I've been trying (on and off) to get a complete collection of the original 125 games for awhile. I'm only interested in CIB games, where all of the components are in good cosmetic condition. I'm down to my final 9 games (listed below). If anyone has any leads, I would greatly appreciate it. AtariSoft Pac-Man Thin Ice Diner Body Slam Chess Pinball (with a purple cartridge label) Zaxxon Star Wars Congo Bongo (this is the one I fear I may never get CIB) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSRSteve Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 (edited) I appear to have Chess and Pinball. I will double check and PM some photos to you. Edit: Message with photos of both sent. Edited October 5, 2020 by BSRSteve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmart604 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Nice. You might have the most interesting final games list I've seen. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from Congo Bongo you already have the ones that most people have a hard time acquiring, like Spiker, Learning Fun 1 and 2, Stadium Mud Buggies, Fathom. I have been collecting for almost 20 years and still don't have Spiker and LF2, because I'm too cheap to pay what they go for. But I do have all the ones you are looking for, and most were not that expensive, although my Congo Bongo is in a reproduction box. I haven't watched ebay lately but I feel like most of your list was readily available not too long ago, maybe things have changed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Diner got more expensive and scarce. Zaxxon is really tough to find with a good box. Same for Pinball. Still a very odd final list. I'm also in the "missing LF2 and Spiker" camp. I do have a loose LF2, but I'm too cheap to buy the last 2 CIB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most commonly we see people with a final 5 of Spiker, SMB, LF 1 and 2, and Congo. Yours seems relatively doable in comparison to most. ?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSRSteve Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Tutankham often shows up on those lists as well. I lucked out that I picked one up in the late 90s when Keith and I were trying to get everything documented. I am down to needing an original Spiker box, having gotten a Congo Bongo box recently (and Stadium Mud Buggies before that). I think LF I and Spiker were my last cartridges. Though I am chasing all the box, cartridge, overlay and English manual variations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 It's like saying, I'm close to finishing a complete Homebrew collection. Just need Magic Carousel and Minehunter ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxivision Posted October 6, 2020 Author Share Posted October 6, 2020 Yes, I got the most expensive ones years ago. However, at least one of them (maybe two) are in repro boxes, which I don't care. I'm not sure which ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxivision Posted October 6, 2020 Author Share Posted October 6, 2020 Was Congo ever in a repro box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaveRider1970 Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 Wow, agree. Still try to get LF I and II CIB. Missed a few occasions losing bid. Strangely, Congo Bongo was one of my first - it was well hidden in a 50 games Intellivision II pack with Diner, Pac Man (Atari soft), Thin Ice in an excellent condition. Without that, I would have never pursue the collection to homebrew. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have both games. I was trying to say that needing only Magic Carousel and Minehunter to complete the set would be the homebrew equivalent to Jaxivision's 125 situation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might not care that they are repro boxes,but the person you may sell them to someday may. Obviously it doesn't matter for your collecting purposes,but you should be aware of what you actually have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
