atari181 Posted November 10, 2018 Author Share Posted November 10, 2018 (edited) Nice grey box collection very tough to get I only have a couple and would like to get them all. Occasionally I see these in boxed lots but you have to buy everything to get at 1 game. Do you consider the mythical hangman to be part of this group? I Don't , I consider it a stand alone. I have only seen 2 in all my years collecting. I bid on a hidden one in a lot years back, only to loose by one bid to another member here.

Indrid Cold Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 (edited) Good LORD dude, that is an AMAZING collection!!! DEMON ATTACK!!! That was one of my favorite games on the 2600!!! My brother, who was 4 years older than me, he loved it too, but he called it "Guano Attack"...lol. Haunted House, Yar's Revenge, Adventure, Custer's Revenge (sorry, that's a joke) and Asteroids round out the list of my fav's on the 2600. Great stuff dude!!!

I asked her about this cartridge and this is what she told me... Quote Wow, I never thought I'd see that name pop up in my email! Cole/Green/Associates has been closed for many years now but of course I remember working on video game testing back then. Who knew it would become a multi-billion dollar industry? To answer your question, our company conducted general research with a sub specialty in toys and games. We tested several games for Sega, including "The Search for Spock," because Sega had just been purchased by Paramount Pictures. Imagine a little stick figure Enterprise moving around looking suspiciously like the arcade game "Asteroids." We also tested a game called Tac-Scan, although I can't remember much about it. We had a hard time finding kids who owned Atari 2600's because it was so new. Mostly rich kids from Palos Verdes. My husband and I now own our own research company (we got married while working together at Cole/Green!) and continue to test video games for all the big makers (Disney, Ubisoft, etc.) Thanks for a trip down memory lane! I would assume the "Search for Spock" game she saw essentially became Star Trek: SOS but I can't be sure. Unfortunately, she didn't respond when I asked for clarification. Just thought I'd share. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain_Combat Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Nice prototypes, they compliment your overall collection well. Did you buy those in the recent goodwill lots? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you buy those in the recent goodwill lots? Yes, I won both lots. In typical Goodwill sales, they tried to screw me over. After receiving this lot, I noticed the Centipede loaner was not with the lot and was up for sale for $599. It is clearly pictured in the first picture of the auction. I sent them a message and pointed this and the fact that the auction said " you will only receive what is pictured" only to be told that i received exactly what was offered. I was extremely pissed off and I sent a message stating so. Luckily the message was given to a supervisor who pulled the Centipede listing and mailed it off to me. I hate dealing with Goodwill. They are lucky, I was just going to screw them as they did me and call my CC and file a fraud case. https://www.ebay.com/itm/100-Video-Cartridges-Late-70s-To-Early-80s-Atari-Mattel-Sega-UNTESTED/233464737596?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Combat Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Can’t believe they tried to rip you off like that. I had those auctions in my watch list but never bid. Despite the hassle you did very well on the lots and will make good money ? when and if you decide to break some of it up. You could probably put the 100 or so loose games that you don’t want with a console and get at least $400 or more. I stopped donating to goodwill after I walked in their store and saw how much they were charging other people for the stuff they take in for free.
