Hyperboy Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Good one I have an 80's collection for my in progress game room including a Change Machine, Claw Machine, Jukebox, the Pepsi Machine and Gumball Machines so a Phone Booth will complete my version of my local arcade from 70's/80's (including all the arcade machines:) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had posted some pics about a year ago but then I moved to Timbuktu (Brookings, OR) for my job and had to sell most of it due to no more available space. I have a few things left if you want them for free, PM me and we can work out the addy details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manoau2002 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Yeah I know these are very common nes games but they are the only nes games I've come across at my local thrift store in 3 years of going there several times a week. I paid two dollars each for them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fushek Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Found at a local Salvation Army Thrift shop ... Wicket the Ewok's Tree House with accessories. $12. Probably would have been cheaper if they realized that it all went together ... but couldn't pass up a Return of the Jedi piece . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cybercylon Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 You need to find a phone booth from England. I hear they are bigger on the inside! Not just any old phone booth…. had to be be a police call box!

ARCZero Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 (edited) For $30 I found five sealed M Network games and a boxed Starplex controller. I'm guessing they're not worth much more than I paid but it's very neat to find sealed Atari 2600 games at a swap meet!

carlsson Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 For $30 I found five sealed M Network games and a boxed Starplex controller. Ooh, a Starplex! I have played mine to bits and pieces for the past 27 or so years. I have changed the cord at least once, removed all the interior electronics and just soldered on the wires onto the buttons. Suffice to say the autofire function no longer works, but the controller itself still does. I suppose they're not that hard to obtain if I would like a spare one, a friend of mine has a NOS in box but then again it would almost require an emergency to break in a previously untouched controller. Regarding the phone booth and Superman, perhaps it works that way that you need a phone booth to attract Superman, just like you put up birdhouses to get birds to nest in your garden? Not sure if it would work the same way with other clientele hanging around phone booths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorTat-G Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 While looking for games for the SNES I'm getting in the mail soon, I asked one of my friends who we talked about buying/selling SNES stuff a few months ago, and sells me this lot for $25. It didn't include any hookup cables(he didn't have any to spare), but he said everything works, so I'll take his word on it. He threw the Wii steering wheel as an added bonus. Games included: Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy Kong's Quest F-Zero John Madden Football Pilotwings StarFox Star Trek: The Next Generation Super Black Bass Super Empire Strikes Back Super Mario World Super Return of the Jedi 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+FujiSkunk Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 That's a nice bundle for $25. If you have a retro store near you, you could probably add a power supply and A/V cable for around $20. But if you're getting those with your other SNES bundle, then you've got yourself some great games to get started with, and a back-up console to boot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
