Crazy Climber Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 (edited) This one is up to $16 loose, and still has a day or so left. Not to mention it's the only one on Ebay besides a sealed one for $55. I didn't think this was uncommon, used to see them all the time at Gamestop for a few bucks....am I missing something http://cgi.ebay.com/ACTIVISION-ANTHOLOGY-G...1QQcmdZViewItem Edited January 5, 2009 by Crazy Climber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vectorman0 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 It has been like this for at least a year (when I got my copy). When I was looking, they were going for $10-$30 loose, $30+ complete. I think it had a very low print run, and all of the people who own it (probably mainly us retro enthusiasts) don't want to part with theirs. It is a great collection, perfect except for some of the games running a bit slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sound's good in theory but the emulation runs slow. It's too bad because I have Gameboy and NES emulators that run at full speed on the GBA so the hardware is capable of emulating a 2600, but this compilation doesn't do it.

Gregory DG Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 It's pretty rare at my house. I lost my copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I think I have that one, mint in box. I'm willing to part with it if someone wants to make an offer. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayhem Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I might as well if I didn't have a bunch of signatures over the box heh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I wasn't aware it was actually worth that much. Now I'll have to see if I actually still own it... If you're going to lowball someone, at least send a PM...it's generally unwise to do it in public. Err yeah that's a good point.

It sound's good in theory but the emulation runs slow. It's too bad because I have Gameboy and NES emulators that run at full speed on the GBA so the hardware is capable of emulating a 2600, but this compilation doesn't do it. It only runs slow on a couple of games. So just don't play Pitfall II on it Seriously, I highly recommend GBA Activision Anthology - I'm certainly never selling my copy. The built in high score records and unlockable Activision Patches are a nice touch, and the homebrew games like Space Treat, Climber 5, and Vault Assault are a nice toucy. I use mine a lot with my Game Boy Micro, which is tiny, with the added bonuses of a first class backlighted screen and much better quality buttons than the SP. I have a 2600 (and a 7800) emulator on my fat PSP, which has an awesome screen and buttons, and runs full speed, but I find myself playing Anthology on the GBA much more because it's just so darn portable.

Thats why I posted it and told him he could probably get more. Lowball offer or not thats all I want to pay for one and I am sure I will find one for that price sooner or later If I just send a PM with a low price it makes me look like I am trying to lowball, this way I clearly let other people get a chance to counter offer my initial offer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
