The MilkMan Posted February 22, 2004 Share Posted February 22, 2004 That Gyruss in particular is a good score for a buck! It took me a LONG time to get one. You know, I didn't recognize this title until I played it. Then I remembered. I have it on the C-64 and totally forgot about it. So I pop it in (the newly aquired 2600 cart), start playing it and WHAM! Oh hell ya! I love this game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari_Worshipper Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 I really want the 7800 versions of Double Dragon and Ikari Warriors. If anybody has spare copies they're looking to sell, give me a holler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Human Cow Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 I just found a 2600 at Goodwill with a Gemstik (or whatever), AC adapter, and 8 games. E.T., Freeway, Outlaw, Grand Prix, Defender, Frogger, and two others that I can't remember. $25 total, but I can't get the picture to quit rolling long enough for me to play. Maybe I'll figure out how if I look around on the forums some more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveW Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 Didn't find anything thrifting, but got some nice stuff at a GameStop. I picked up a Sega Saturn RF adapter (so I can finally use the one I bought a couple of weeks ago), and copies of Star Voyager, Journey to Silius, Elevator Action, Rolling Thunder, and Vindicators for the NES. Total, $11.75. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveW Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 I didn't find much today. I kept finding Sega Genesis version 1 consoles all over the place, one even in the box. Too bad i'm not looking for one. But I did pick up a couple of games, Sonic & Knuckles and Starflight, $1.99 each. I discovered a Goodwill Superstore that I didn't know was there, and I bought Max Magic, Palm Springs Open Golf, and Golden Oldies Jukebox for the Phillips CD-i, and a Sega Saturn controller extension cord, new. All together, $14. I passed on the several unopened Mad Catz Dreamcast controllers and the Lightgun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The MilkMan Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 2 loose 2600 carts... Slot Machine and Mario Brothers. I know Slot Machine is a stinker, but I didn't have it.

SteveW Posted February 29, 2004 Share Posted February 29, 2004 Went to a flea market, bought a Philips CD-i control pad and a copy of Apprentice, River Rescue for the Atari 800, and Spike for the Vectrex. Total, $35. The guy at the flea market has all sorts of classic systems, along with a great selection of games. He had just bought in a load of stuff, including a bunch of Philips CD-i games and discs that he got from a Philips corporate executive. Most of his stuff was exclusive demo stuff and betas. He had a corporate management only pre-release of Zelda's Adventure! He's putting it all on eBay soon. That Zelda one will be worth a lot.
