Not mine. Looks like the games O'Shea offered some time ago.

 

Something for the 7800 homebrewers? It's still less than $100 for 500 games and will end in a few hours.

Don't forget to factor in shipping (i.e., that would add an extra $65.00 to the cost of the auction for me).

I love buying sets like that though. I bought about 60-70 boxed commons from else awhile back on eBay, and putting the boxed games in with your system auctions really helps get the prices higher. 500 boxed games.......tempting for sure. but where would I put them?

I thought about buying it for my Christmas sales (yes, 10 months from now) but the seller wouldn't give a breakdown of what games were actually included. I didn't want 200 copies of one game and maybe 50 copies each of 6 different games.

If they where all 7800 games I would have bought them. Even more so if they where all JINKS. Jinks is the homebrewers dream come true untill a 7800 PCB is ready to be sold.

Yeah, right. You're a closet JINKS addict. Admit it.

Pardon my ignorance -- why is Jinks so homebrewer friendly?

Cause it supports 8k right right up to 128k (144 is possible also). And comes with onboard RAM and inverters to support 2 EPROMS. There is a zillion jumper settings (one for nearly each size) but I don't think you could expect otherwise. So ya JINKS=GOOD. It is handsdwon the best game to tear down to make your own 7800 carts and I don't think there is anyone that would argue that point. So untill the 7800 blanks are for sale, tear down JINKS and leave those hat tricks alone for God's sake!!

The ebay seller gamesandstuff offers a couple of 7800 games, including

Jinks.

 

They have a lot of 72 games for about $190 on ebay, but you could try to talk to them about copies of Jinks.

If Jinks carts are really that valuable for homebrewers, the community should try to buy all the Jinks copies from them and may get a better price.

 

Btw. they also have Ballblazers, maybe the ATARI 800 people who need a second POKEY could use that game.
