IntellivisionDude Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Laugh at me if you will but i want a Wii U + the game Mario Maker. I currently don't have the extra cash for it and i'd rather sell some of my own stuff to pay for it. I have plenty of games just collecting dust. Not sure what i want to sell at the moment. And there is a chance it won't be just Intellivision games. But unfortunately that is where most of the money is. I know it's crazy that i finally hit the 125 and now i'm down to 123 and that could be even less eventually. So far i haven't sold anything that i can't play on the Flashback. But at the same time i have games i'd never sell even though they are on the Flashback like Body Slam and Slam Dunk. My precious's. I know it's though to want to sell any of my games. But i'm trying to set aside the collector mentality especially for games i know i'm never gonna play and put that money towards something that i will. So i'm on a goal of raising about $250-300. I guess that depends on if i can get what i need cheap. Games i have considered selling Stadium Mud Buggies (Loose) Learning Fun 1 & 2 (Loose) Triple Challenge (Cart & Manual) Super Pro Decathlon (Complete) Truckin (Complete) White Water (Complete) Fathom (Loose) Tandyvision System (with the box which you can see here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=huZ5aCAO2NQ) I know loose games don't do well on Ebay so i won't be putting them up for auction.

Ignorama Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I thought exactly the same as Rev wrote. I mean if you have to pay for bills or real life make problems its totally fine, but for a Wii U? What the heck? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 (edited) If you have loose copy with overlays of Thin Ice, Thunder Castle, AD&D games, Tower of Doom, Buzz Bomber, Hover Force, Tropical Trouble or interesting games that I may like. I would like to get those games if you have them. Edited February 11, 2016 by Kiwi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignorama Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 (edited) I think Rev has a Wii U lol But I doubt he sold his soul for it I also own multiple systems, but I would never get the idea of selling my Intellivision-Rares to buy something ordinary like a Wii U, which will just be cheaper if you wait. I mean its your stuff, so of course you can do whatever you want to do with it, but it really fells wrong if the IntellivisionDude does something like that Edited February 11, 2016 by Ignorama 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+the1hatman Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Ah he's offering it to our community of collectors first, thus helping others compete their sets. So whether collecting or helping others collect INTV items, I think the IntellivisionDude handle is still very fitting 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+JasonlikesINTV Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I can respect what you're doing, Dude. You're evolving a preference for quality collecting over quantity/completism. I'm currently far from that, but eventually I need to do some downsizing. It will be interesting to see where land and what I end up keeping.

IntellivisionDude Posted February 11, 2016 Author Share Posted February 11, 2016 You don't have a Vectrex unit ? You're kidding me ? ^^ That system has been on my want list for quite some time. The closest i got was last year when a good deal popped up on Ebay but i ended up passing. Maybe one day but it's not as high on my want list as it used to be.

I don't keep up with prices so i can only base it off of Ebay prices. Maybe $40-50 for Truckin and $35-40 for White Water. ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know of one more game that should be precious to you. It was a personal gift offered in friendship which I hope you enjoyed; so if you ever decide to part with it, I'll happily take it back. -dZ.
