Scratch one item off your "Wish List"

[Crazy Climber]

What if you got to pick one thing for your collection that you would receive free of charge, what would it be? I don't mean the most expensive thing you can think of to re-sell. I mean one thing you would actually want in your collection but cant find it or afford it right now. It's fun to hear what the most sought after items are for different people. I'll start it off with a complete Gauntlet by Answer for the 2600, man that would be cool. What about you guys.

Probably an Arkanoid controller for the NES. I found the game thifting and didn't get the controller for it.

[Vic George 2K3]

The Smurfs for SNES. In an actual American SNES cartridge form, no less.

[pmpddytim]

A galaga arcade machine. That is the one thing I want most in my collection.

[sega saturn x]

A darkstalkers arcade machine, but the chances of that happening anytime soon are pretty slim.

[Dusk2600]

prolly an asteroids arcade cus of the cool vector type graphics or a 3d immager with the 3d games

[shadow460]

One of these (any would do)

Burning Rangers, Panzer Dragoon Saga, or Shining Force III for the Saturn.

[init12]

Smurfs: Rescue in Gargamels Castle or Burgertime for Colecovision. Coleco stuff is impossible to find in my area.

[Gregory DG]

Mine would have to be a sit-down Star Wars...

[Collector]

i have the smurf game and unless your really into smurfs, you may want to rethink your "one" free thing.

 

Me, right now the only thing i wish i had was a turbo express.

[keilbaca]

Mine would have to be either a DDR Extreme arcade machine or Marvel vs Capcom 2 arcade. If I got either one of those, I'd play it nonstop.

[Pixelboy]

A Dragon's Lair arcade machine.

[Atarifever]

An After Burner sit down cabinate. There's one in an arcade a few minutes from my house, but they usually have it unhooked.

One thing I would like--but can't really justify the cost of--is a Starcon controller for my 5200 collection. Over $200 for a controller is kinda steep. Wish I'd bought one when Fred had them for sale so long ago, but I though the original price (I think it was $80!) was kinda steep too! I'll just have to live without.

a large, empty basement

Well, your AC adaptor goes for about $8.00

I would sell you my extra Star Raiders and pad for $6.00 shipped.

 

There's two of your biggest dream items EVER for $14.00

 

 

 

As for me, I'll take a Quadrun please.

[sega saturn x]

I'm starting to think street fighter 3 would also kick all kinds of ass, *sigh* one day one day.

[8th lutz]

Any of these:

magical Chase tg-16

Turbo duo(too steep right now for price)

Crazy Climber-2600(It is too step of a price)

I'd like a Neo-Geo unit, either the arcade cab, or the home version. Either that, or a copy of the unreleased Activision game Dead Heat. It was supposed to be released for PS2/Xbox/GameCube/GBA, but got the axe fairly far along. I love the idea of a driving game/zombie survival horror game combination. Then Activision killed off development, because they said that it didn't look like it would be a big enough seller. In other words, if it's not going to sell as well as Halo, they don't want to bother.

[Draikar]

I would love a Compaq Deskpro 286 with monitor, I just can't find one. But if your talking about more into games stuff I would say a Nintendo 64 DD with original blue box packaging by Nintendo, I sometimes see them but never when I had the cash.

I'd have to say a complete Sony Net Yaroze! I hate I didn't buy one when they were released. I was single then and could have gotten one.

[AussieAtari]

Realistic - Mint Vectrex, bidding every time one comes up but they are getting so crazily expensive.

 

Ultimate wish - Dr. Who pinball machine, oh baby!

 

I met a guy yesterday who pretty much has his list nailed, single guy with a HUGE shed set up as his own personal gaming and computer museum. Check it out - http://computermuseum.bigpondhosting.com/

 

All I could say was that his is one lucky bastard!!!!
