Help from those with good eyes

[Red 5]

So I took a bit of a gamble on an ebay auction.

It ended on a Sunday and the only description was 'atari'.

I was surprised to find it said 'over 100 games with no duplicates.'

I took a shot and won (for a nice low amount.)

 

Anyway, the only picture from the auction is below.

Can anyone pick out any titles for fun?

 

With my sucky eyes, I have found:

 

Venture

Joust

PacMan

Battlezone

Starmaster

Superman ? (I think...loose, above Venture)

Decathlon

Missile Command?

Air Sea Battle?

 

 

Can anyone identify any others?

The box has been sent and I should get it by Monday, I hope.

Hopefully your package won't arrive like that.

I've also found:

 

Dig Dug? (silver box)

Starmaster

Realsports Baseball? (silver)

Combat

Freeway

So how much did you wint it for?

Just under $50.

Also includes a working 6 switch, 2600 trakball (which I don't have ) and "random controllers"

 

@ sku ---> After talking with the guy, I fully expect it to be shipped just like that. For the $ though, who's complaining.

 

Plus, what is more fun than digging through a box of atari carts with your fingers crossed hoping to find a Quadrun or Chase the Chuckwagon.

 

(In reality, I will probably get 2 or 3 label variations, but trade bait is worth it.)

 

Any guesses on the box above venture? My guess is Galaxian.

 

And how about the red box all the way to the left and the silver box below the starmaster?

Very nice. You got a good deal there my friend

You better hope the stuff gets to your house in "fair" condition. I used to work for USPS and a typical parcel will get it's ass kicked sevral times in the course of processing parcels.

That's one of the coolest things about collecting this stuff

 

Be sure and post after you go through it all

I'll post it all.

And then post the duplicates for trade in the market place too.

 

So... any more guesses ?

When I talked to the seller, they said they had already sold Quadrun and Chuckwagon to others in a side deal before the auction ended. They figured you would never know since you couldn't see them in the photo.

 

Just kidding.

 

It's probably better the picture isn't clear. If there were a Commavid or other rare game sitting obviously in view, it would have had higher probability of being posted or poached.

I got lucky on a lot like that before. Won a lot of 30 games off of ebay for 30 bucks and there ended up being and Off Your Rocker in it. I ended up trading that one cart for both my 5200 and 7800 collections. You never know what is in there...

That's why I have got my tracking number before I posted.

I'm stupid, but I ain't dumb !

I agree with the one box being Galaxian.

There's a Mythicon title in there next to Starmaster, but it's turned so you can't see the labels. You can tell by the dust guard, though, that it's a Mythicon game.

Lower left looks like Warlords. The cart with its label missing in the middle left is a Data Age game.

Underneath Galaxian and Venture, the cart with yellow letters looks like Slot Racers.

Gonna take a guess that the white one in the lower right is Commando.

The one south of Air Sea Battle could be Canyon Bomber, and I think the barely visible label underneath "Canyon Bomber" (next to Combat) is Night Driver.

Below Dig Dug on the left side of the box, that appears to be a Video Touch Pad.

 

I don't see the RS Baseball in there, but the silver label cart that's upside down does look like a RealSports title. I can't imagine which one, though. If it's Baseball, it's faded out.

 

Who knows, though. I wear a 4.0 lens over one eye and a 4.25 over the other, so I could be way off and those could actually be SNES games. I might not be able to see the difference.

I've had trouble with that one too.

It's obviously a silver label Atari title, and it looks like an RS title, but I can't make it out for anything.

 

Looks like the package is due to arrive on Tuesday.

I will post the results then.

 

Nice call on the Mythicon.
