Silver Back Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 This is why I’m bummed on missing out on rikki and vikki for the 7800. https://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Atari-7800-Rikki-Vikki-Homebrew-Game-EXTREMELY-RARE-Please-Read-/275024084640?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0 btw I’m not saying their wrong for asking for so much. They were on top of it and it’s their right to ask whatever they want. It just bums me that it’s out of my budget 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it’s sought after, but it seems like 550 copies would not make it in that short supply. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_q_atari Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Guess it's time to list my unopened, pristine, ultra rare, invisrinkwrapped copy for $1499... Oh wait, I'm not that big of a <insert_your_favorite_word_here> 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think very few of those 550 cart owners are willing to give it up, and it is arguably the most impressive game for the system. When “rare game” meets “great game” is when craziness really ensues. But these prices are crazy even for 2021. Surely there can’t be THAT many 7800 fans with thousands of dollars to blow on a single game… 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_q_atari Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 If I were tailchao I would have been tempted to produce 650, only admit to 550, and trickle out the last hundred for years to bankroll the whole project 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadrunner Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 None of the 550 owners got their copies graded yet? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dopy25 Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 That dude super over charges for everything on his page. Also pretty sure he's a member here. Probably an alter skirt or something. What a douche. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
