FireTiger #1 Posted December 28, 2004 THe strangest thing has been going on...I have a pritty good memory overall, I do forget things... but really this is crazy...I used to have 3 or the 4 normal versions of (Atari/Sears) Adventure...(not the late releace one)...now all three of them are missing... I have reciently rearranged my collection but Adventure isn't there... now I know the game isn't hard to get or anything its just really annoying that this happened...I also lost a paticular Froggo game (7800) a couple of years ago and I relaitvly rare Imagic game... Any clue or is this just like the drier and the socks? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kevin242 #4 Posted December 28, 2004 woah this is totally wierd but I had 0 copies of Adventure and just recently I was going thru my Atari 2600 and I noticed there were 3 copies!!!! spooky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yuppicide #5 Posted December 28, 2004 Maybe a friend stole them or your mother cleaned up and threw stuff away. When I was young I either misplaced or someone stole about 10-15 Ricky Henderson rookies off me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FireTiger #8 Posted December 29, 2004 no all of my nakkid PB carts are star wars! I want my Adventure back! I really wanted to play a little Adventure... I went to do thais and there's no cart there.... No mom didn't clean them up... She's a bit recovering from major surgery... So odd... *poof* I have been showing off my collection but really why take Adventure...I noticed so its not that... but there's River Patrol and Waterworld here...

Uber Troll #9 Posted December 29, 2004 The topic of this thread is somewhat misleading. I was expecting something far stranger than missing Adventure carts. Perhaps a mechanized penguin traveling through time to prevent the invention of coloring books? It's possible that his timeship uses Adventure carts as fuel, thus bringing this post sort of back on topic... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nostalgic #16 Posted December 29, 2004 While reorganizing your collection, could you have set a few cartridges - including Adventure - somewhere else, like a table or desk, to get them out of the way? I find when I'm reorganizing, I need extra space before everything fits back in its original space. Something could get lost in the shuffle that way.
