Willard Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 those prices are preposterous. but I suppose it's the only way to get originals of those games which makes it really hard for people who want to collect. if i were someone just coming into the scene it'd make me second-guess whether or not i want to collect tho. despite the stock market having risen at a similarly absurd rate over the last several years, I think Jaguar games have outdone it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CyranoJ Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) Blackout Jag cartridge: $511.01 LOL - we should start selling totally blank carts! If people will pay this for a no-game, they'd probably pay for a no-data too. We could call it RSOD - Red Screen of Death. The object is to not get a red screen. Instant hit, and far more replay value than Blackout Edited February 10, 2015 by CyranoJ 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serblander Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Oh my gwad! Jag freakdom! Finishing ebay auctions today: Madbodies: $455.00 + $12.65 shipping - and that game sucks. Why all the hate on this game? To each their own but i (and a lot of mates i've played with) like it. The only thing that shits me is the lack of difficulty level selection (unless there is but i just never realized ). AND WHY THE THIRD $#^&*%@ ASTEROID/BALL?! The only other game on that #Jaglotto list i have is Gorf CD (L.E. 25/50) but see a strange anomaly with its auctions over the past few years: the standard Blue case release generally fetches more than the L.E. White case release (with LE poster). HUH!? As for the other two carts that went at that price: no words... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+madman Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I wonder which of these were purchased by collectors for their collections, or by speculators thinking the Jag prices will continue to rise forever? The Downfall+ cart would've been neat to have, but not at that price and also considering you can play basically the same thing for free. Wow. I wonder what an Impulse X cart will be going for in 2 years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scobb Posted February 11, 2015 Author Share Posted February 11, 2015 Keep in mind, I set low starting prices for all games. Plus didn't want to sell any of them, it took a long time to build this collection and I've had a Jag since mid 90s. Just needed the $s. I am surprised they went so high, but I guess that's what the market will bear...I was looking at a Korean 3DO game the other day...it went for almost $3K! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anybody's blaming you Just don't think many people expected pretty much any limited print jaguar release to start fetching $400+ & yeah those korean 3DO games are selling for insane prices these days! I saw a few when I started getting into older systems but they're pretty much garbage in terms of gameplay imo so I passed. They went for like $60 and were relisted several times before they sold back then! Same with those M2 Kiosk units, used to sell for $40 and then people found out they can play a few tech demos and all the sudden they're being listed for $3K + . Never got any of that stuff because imo the majority of the 3DO library is pretty bland so I never had the intention of getting all the games for it.

I wonder what an Impulse X cart will be going for in 2 years. Yep. At that price (Downfall+) i'd rather get more Battlesphere's to network! Still spewing i sold all my BS Classics 7 years ago (and counting ). Speaking of Impulse X, i just ordered the cart and CD from Nick. Can't wait to try it! Especially as its mouse and rotary compatible!! Been out of the JagLynx loop for a couple of years, but as i understand it, you CAN'T create (or create AND save) new levels on the cartridge version of Impusle X, is this right?

I have been out of the Jag for awhile (I bought mine brand new from Don Thomas on release date two weeks after release date for $225), but got back in when I realized there had been so much new activity and I am trying to catch back up. (I should mention it was *not* Don's fault that Atari took all of the inventory he had set aside for the pre-order folks and sent them to retailers).

Willard Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 (edited) The most ironic post on the Jag forum ever Well, the 3DO did have a lot more games than the Jaguar! I can see people taking the bad with the good when the Jaguar library on a little over 60 games, but with the 3DO the ratio is too high @ over 300 games when (IMO) they both have about the same number of ones that are good enough to buy the system for. I also think the Jaguar's games (even what are considered the worst on the system) are interesting to a degree, some of the 3DO titles don't qualify as games and many others probably shouldn't Edited February 11, 2015 by Willard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love my Jaguar, especially for the quality titles like Zero 5, AvP, Doom, W3D, IS1 & IS2, T2K, PDR, SBO etc... plus titles less favoured like HoverStrike, IWar and Cybermorph. But my 3DO has a better overall selection of quality titles: NFS, RR, KTime, POed, SSF2T, SShodown, Shockwave series, Starblade, StarFighter, StarControl 2, Space Hulk etc... plus much more. By comparison, the list of decent quality Jag games - whilst solid, is somewhat lesser imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By comparison, the list of decent quality Jag games - whilst solid, is somewhat lesser imo. I get you, and understand there are people who may feel that way. Personally I'm not a big fan of many of the games you mentioned (space hulk, starfighter, the first shockwave + expansion, PO'd, I like the direction of Killing Time, Captain Quazar, Blade Force but feel the execution fell a little short - still very cool games for fans of system though as they show you what the 3DO was technically capable of, Starblade was great in the arcade but I don't think that experience translated to the home very well) .etc. Among my choice 3DO games are ones that I've read many people dislike (such as Phoenix 3, Mega Race, and Iron Angel 2... even played Mazer quite a bit). I think one of my problems with the 3DO is many of the best games have been ported off to better systems (so why not just get those on the PSX / Saturn + a lot more). Another issue is (if you read the specific wording of my previous post), the number of games "worth buying the system for," or the ones that are worth going back to today, are about the same imo. That doesn't mean that the 3DO doesn't have more "good" games or games that were better at the time imo, just ones that are worth spending the time on now with so many systems and so many games available to us today.

Matthias Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Hello! ...Speaking of Impulse X, i just ordered the cart and CD from Nick. Can't wait to try it! Especially as its mouse and rotary compatible!! Been out of the JagLynx loop for a couple of years, but as i understand it, you CAN'T create (or create AND save) new levels on the cartridge version of Impusle X, is this right? Thanks for your purchases, Serblander The cartridge version of Impulse X supports saving of the new selfcreated levels to the serial Eeprom, but due to the space limitations of this chip the number of levels that can be stored there depends on the complexity of their design. Using few bricks per level and only few colours you can save all 40 playfields, but expect that with average designs like seen in the standard level set you can usually save about 8-12 playfields/levels. @all: My Jaguar games Double Feature #1 (Jaguar-CD game) can currently (February 11, 2015) be purchased from Nick Harlow (16/32 Systems) (UK). Impulse X (Jaguar-CD) can currently be purchased from Console5.com (USA). Impulse X (Jaguar-Cartridge) can currently be purchased from Nick Harlow (16/32 Systems) (UK) or from me (Germany).

Rick Dangerous Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 The Jaguars library is totally as good as the 3DO's, if not better. Said no one outside a Jaguar forum, ever. I'm a jag fanatic but....c'mon 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be showcasing the game at this years EB Games Expo and PAX Aus - hence i wanted one that i can create my own levels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
