+Steve Jones Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 So after putting it off for ages until I ran out of other variations to buy, I've taken the plunge and bought my first Bandai games. Even though only the manual is in Japanese I justified it in my head because I don't have many international Mattel versions with the slots for the manual in the back, so that's like a box variation right? Sure. So 2 things, does anyone have a list of all the Bandai games? Cmart? IntvSteve? Rev? Jason? I've figured about 25 of them based on searching online, I actually have 2 Bandai consoles but I don't think that every game pictured on the box actually got made? AD&D? Reversi? Royal Dealer? Astrosmash? etc Also does anyone have any good condition CIB Bandai games they want to sell or trade? I bought 11 from a single ebay seller in Japan so looking for more. Thanks, Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmart604 Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 I think I have a list at home, but I have it in my head that there are 29 Bandai titles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+intellivotion Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 (...) I bought 11 from a single ebay seller in Japan so looking for more. Thanks, Steve So you are the guy who bought all those Bandai games. I negotiated savagely and for long time with that seller, but as ABBA sang: "The winner takes it all The loser standing small Beside the victory That's my destiny" Congrats, Steve!

+Steve Jones Posted June 30, 2016 Author Share Posted June 30, 2016 I offered him 4-5 dollars less than the buy it now for all of them and i guess because i offered on so many he accepted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lathe26 Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 Since you are collecting variants, let me pour a little gasoline on the fire... you can collect the catalogs, as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+intvsteve Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 I've hesitated pulling the trigger on getting these for years, too. I haven't worked up a decent page for Bandai yet, and have only been tracking info on these games ad hoc over the years. Here's the list I have: http://intvfunhouse.com/games/variants.php?vendor=Bandai&page=1&perpage=50 So, lists and scans welcome, of course. Just don't hold me to a date for the big reveal of a page.

Intellivision Bandai Catalogs - small.jpg The kids on these are awesome. They must have been trying market to girls; even a pink baseball bat.

+Lathe26 Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 The kids on these are awesome. They must have been trying market to girls; even a pink baseball bat. The only odd thing in the photo is that it looks like the baseball bat is being held backwards. I expect the hand to be around the handle, not the fat end of the bat. Maybe some people hold it that and I've never noticed. Japan is huge on baseball so the photo seems extra odd. That said, yeah, I thought they did a better job of marketting for girls in Japan that the US. That's pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+DZ-Jay Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 I know this is a stupid question, but... what's a Bandai Game? Are they Mattel Intellivision games branded for the Japanese market? (I've heard them being mentioned before, along with something or other from Brasil, but never really paid attention to what they were.) -dZ.

+Steve Jones Posted July 1, 2016 Author Share Posted July 1, 2016 Yes exactly, the game boxes are the Mattel international ones with the slot in the back of the box for an international, in this case Japanese, manual, but english text on the box, the overlays and cart are english too. Digiplay on the other hand, which I almost completed recently, did all new different boxes, full colour brazilian manuals and brazilian language overlays and cart labels. Through some strange licensing deal they also released some activision titles and imagic ones, in completely different style of boxes. Go on mercadolibre.com (brazilian version of ebay) and search intellivision to see these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
