atari70s #1 Posted April 19, 2006 ..... and got a vectrex system boxed. ( ive been pondering over it for a few months ) im probably gonna need some games for it but what is yall take on the unit. $150 for a orignally boxed system seemed a little high but nothing that u wouldnt expect if i went to ebay.

Dusk2600 #2 Posted April 19, 2006 vectrex is a remarkable one of a kind system with good games some items r a little pricey but if u wait long enough, with the exception of the 3d imager and a few games u can pick up an y game from 5-40.00 i have like 30 games for it. i dont think u got ripped off too bad on ur vectrex. id rather personally buy 1 with a few games for that much instead of a boxed one, just my personal preference tho. enjoy it. Hell of a system. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteveW #3 Posted April 19, 2006 The Vectrex is a great machine. I've only got around 3 games for mine, though. Make sure you pick up some of the homebrews that are coming out lately. Y.A.S.I./Protector is one I have that's good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JB #4 Posted April 19, 2006 My thoughts = Welcome to the Church of Vectrex. Was my first game machine, and it's still one of my favorites. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
atari70s #5 Posted April 19, 2006 well they used to have a loose one for 100. but that was sold after the NAVA meeting saturday and this was what was left. i guess its worth it. I still kick myself years later after kicking one thinking it was a stupid euro TV with a funny remote. ( lessions learned). $5 was good price back then hell even today. i wonder if its matching number im sure it is 0088078 good ole Digit Press coming through Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JB #6 Posted April 19, 2006 Oh yeah... curious if you got the Milton-Bradley release or the (better-looking, IMO) GCE model. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
