dwh Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 I got a copy of Ataricorp Surround 1986 version with the black tape covering the wrong controller info. I refuse to reveal just how much I had to shell out to get this one... I do not expect to get the CIB copy of this, so I am happy with getting the cartridge. I also bought two auctions to get everything for a complete copy of Sears Chase # 49-75105, picture label, then I realized I had a text cart that was # 49-75105, which is not listed in the book Classic 80's Home Video Games. There are several mistakes and omissions in that book, but it has helped me for the last five years. So collecting all the Sears variants continues to be a pain. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClassicGMR Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 The System Changer was one of my favorite things for a very, very long time. One console connection for 2 awesome systems. 😊 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwh Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 A copy of Ebivision Pac-Man for $22! And it does not have the franken-Hozer head on the label. So is it the one cart that was awarded to someone for finding the secret room in Alfred Challenge? Or just an extra cart with this label that Hozer Games sold before changing the label? For $22 it better not be the only copy! The rest of the items from the same seller were- ZBlocks- two player tetris River Run- This copy works! Moxie Wins- Yet another soda space invaders hack. Atari Pong, the original arcade game- a real simple program of pong, the label is VERY 70's. Asteroids,the vector edition-Hozer games 1999. This one was free due to late shipment of order. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asteroids really takes me back to the local 7-11 store where I fed my allowance into that game. I couldn't fit either of those games in my house. An updated photo of the games working would be nice... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainBreakout Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 Here's Asteroids... I know the sun is kinda bad, but it works after some tinkering. Ladybug is next. Just for fun... Let me show you the manufacturer label on the back of Ladybug. I'd LOVE to see another game made by this company... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsiddall Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 Nice assortment of random goodness...all for a little over $20. Intellivision Space Armada is French/English packaging... 🙂 LYNX manuals - hated to pass them up. Kung Food (LYNX) - no manual, whatever... Not a thrift store find but pricing was comparable. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as impressive as yours LOL, But I bought one of those mini Asteroids cabinet (toys if you will) and it totally sucks TBH,....Playing some game, if you can get it to work that has a VFD display where you rotate a ship around a ring shooting asteroids...Not really Asteroids at all. So I only bought it because I too, have a full sized Asteroids cabinet and thought it might be cool to someday put them near one another...My cab needs some work, and is in my father's garage for now...Strangely my cabinet sides are white instead of black. It's the only one I've seen that is white. I bought it that way in the 80's... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+GoldLeader Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 But, I also had some good purchases. (A good camera that takes decent pics is not one of them haha)... A couple of hard shell cases to fit Analogue Pockets; Oddly these are harder and more rigid on the sides and not as hard on the top and bottom, but they'll work. Some SD cards from Amazon and a Sealed Metal Slug Anthology (7 Games!) for PS2! Here's a another pic of Metal Slug Anthology in its natural habitat with my other PS2 games, But now I'm on the horns of a dilemma. I want to open it, but it's Sealed! (HMMmmmm...) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a full size Black Knight pinball, and I had the same idea. I wanted to put the mini Entex handheld version on the top... But those things can go for as much as the full size pinball game!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did ya like the pic? Crappy camera notwithstanding...I wanted something a bit more epic. High contrast shadows, (off the top of my head) I thought might work... That's the Limited Edition Transparent Green Analogue Pocket!* Behold! I've already got'er loaded up with cores and ROMs, though I need a ton more... Side Note: (Speaking of ROMs, I just played an Adventure II ROM on my Atari 7800 (Well, Harmony cart), which I assume would work on the Pocket also, but I haven't tried yet...) It's the Curt Vendel game which I also have on my Flashback II...FWIW, I just won the game when the bat traded The Chalice for a Dragon Corpse as he flew by!! **Should I be mentioning this in that other thread?...NAwww** *Getting one was the product of me getting up Way Too Early one Friday and spending too much money...Maybe had some Good Luck there too Honestly, it messes with my sleep schedule something fierce to get up at 9AM on 4-ish hours sleep...On a work night no less...Sometimes my sleep schedule is messed up for days to come... Ultra Side Note: Also, being tired and stressed some time later, (though probably nothing to do with it) may have contributed to my accident whereby I sort of stubbed my toe and actually broke 2 toes! (I'm still off work healing up from all that, but at least it wasn't an incident at an Eastern European Buffet!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will it come to an outbreak of pizza-panic?) Good luck then that you’ve got the Analogue Pocket to kill some time while you heal-up (… and watches out the window as the city riots for lack of pizza-delivery…) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to hear about the accident in your later post. Thanks! No worries I think my foot's getting better each day! As far as Pockets, the blue one looks really cool too. I figure colors like Blue and Red, maybe Green would be the hardest ones to get or the most popular...I'd bet smoke or clear would be the ones the fewest people would want, based on nothing at all except my own preferences, haa...I wanted Green, but would also have gone for Orange or Purple, but if all those sold out, I didn't want a smoke or a clear one...And I already have a White one. I probably didn't need 2, but it's such a cool device! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
