+Stephen Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 1) Bally Home Library Computer 2) Bally Professional Arcade white Montgomery Ward edition 3) AstroVision Astrocade All three have the correct boxes (Astrocade has the factory shipping box w/matching serial #), controllers, accesories etc. and are 100% working. Wow - very nice setup. Those are in amazingly good condition! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

128Kgames Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 nice! Wow - very nice setup. Those are in amazingly good condition! Thanks, it took years to find those in the condition they are in, especially the working Home Library Computer. The Astrocade branded console was tough as well since AstroVision pretty much used up the existing stock from Bally which usually had the Bally Computer System or Professional Arcade labels.

Protoplasym Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 If it is sealed, how do you play with it? great question, you've got me there I didn't buy it to play it. Considering the Turbo Duos are known to have Capacitor issues... there's no way for me to know what condition my unit is in, so it's best to keep it sealed for eternity. I'm after a nm-m cib unit now, so that I can actually have one to play with I've zero idea how rare a sealed TD truly is (if at all?)... does anyone on this board own one with a flawless seal or sealed at all? I'd love to know if it was sealed by NEC before they went under and sold all their stuff to that big 3rd party outfit that continued to sell the old stock years after NEC went under, or if it was in fact sealed by that 3rd party outfit. I haven't been able to find info for that... if anyone knows the scoop, I'd super appreciate the facts. thks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zenimus Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 I've got an Analogue Interactive consolized Neo Geo MVS. But those are still available for sale, so I'm not sure if they count. Other than that... are Colecovisions or Turbo Duos considered rare? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drixxel Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Mine is a Pioneer LaserActive with the PAC-S10. I saw it for sale in a thrift for $160. I went back the following Monday knowing the price would be reduced with the full intent to buy it. I was through the door the second it opened and told them I wanted to buy it. They'd marked it down to $40! I couldn't get my wallet out fast enough. The person behind me was interested in it "as a video player for the kids" and another collector dropped in later that day. It's modded for S-Video output. I have the board assembled to mod my LA for RGB and the 32X, but I just haven't installed the board yet. Man, what an awesome find, and thankfully your gamble paid off! Well played. I can't say I have anything especially rare console-wise, a Coleco Gemini is probably as uncommon as it gets.

segagamer99 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 My rarest system is an SG-1000 Mark II, CIB for $150. It's actually quite an underrated system! I got 5 loose carts for $50. Hustle Chumy, Safari Hunting, Sindbad Mystery, Girl's Garden,Flicky, and now the Castle are so much fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
