FINALLY! (Atari Lynx RAIDEN)
Yes! I got a cheap Atari Lynx Raiden.
What makes me happy about this is that I've been eyeballing this game for a while now. I've wanted Raiden for the Lynx probably about as long as i wanted Devil's Crush for the Turbo Grafx. And now... it's mine!!!!
Furthermore... this is the cart I'm getting:
I'd like to think this is the more 'official' released version. I can't back taht up... but it LOOKS like it is rather than say the ones I was after on ebay a while back:
The picture above appears to me like copies that someone made. It was disscussed a while back in another thread. Which... you know... I don't have a problem with that. I personally think they look cool. So I'm not complaining at all. They look more prototype-ish so to speak.
The black cart above that I am getting, I got it for $30 shipped. That is a hell of a lot better than the $99 that direct4games charges. And better than the $50 or so I've seen them go for on ebay. The only thing is... I'm very very surprised it went this cheap. Of the past 3-4 years watching ebay: I've seen Raiden pop up perhaps 2-3 times now. All recently. Perhaps I wasn't watching well enough. LOL Either way, this is the first Raiden cart I saw made like this. And I think it is the official Temegames release.
The same seller sold a few other rarities recetly. He's parting his stuff out slowly. I missed a Bubble Trouble because I forgot to bid. That one still bugs me.
Either way... I'm very happy. I have Raiden on the way, Soko Mania, and... yes... I have a PITS coming as well.
Good times....
