DeathAdderSF Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 (edited) Hey, y'all. As the thread title sez, I'm selling more junk. It's been sitting around here for far too long, and I just can't stand looking @ it any more. Please consider checking it out, and perhaps bidding really high on multiple items. 😃  What's available? 39 items, at present. Super A'can boxed system + all 12 games, for example. (You'll NEVER see "REBEL" again, so if you want it, you'd better damn well bid on it now.) Also a "UMC TV GAME DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM" aka the Super A'can development kit. (That's a pretty hefty piece of useless hardware for sure.) Hrm... and lots of Super Fighter Team games; I was using them to balance out an uneven table (j/k?).  Brandon's latest batch of stuffs on eBay - now with more A'can!  Have fun browsin'! 🤪   Edited September 4, 2023 by DeathAdderSF Buy one Mega Duck, get multiple disappointments FREE!

Tanooki Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 I have a friend who is well into the Super A'Can stuff, not sure he can jump in but depends where it ends at. That Mega Duck though interests me I'll keep an eye on it since it's already bid on.

+madman Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Wow, I own a Supervision which is most certainly craptastic, but I've never heard of the Mega Duck/Cougar Boy. I love that computer is so huge with what appears to be the same sized LCD as the handheld Mega Duck. Oh, 90's video gaming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayr Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Didn't realize yet another forum member was close to me here in San Diego. Cool. I'm in Oak Park but have friends in Santee. Good luck on your listing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You too eh (I own his old supervision)  Had I known all along he had a Mega Duck I'd have asked about selling it before it went to ePay. I've wanted one of those as it's even more comparable to the old Gameboy, but I have an interest in Taiwanese developed games and Mega Duck has a number of them, some did even hit the Gameboy under the Sachen label or some other murky thing such as the mighty 31in1 cart among others.

DeathAdderSF Posted September 6, 2023 Author Share Posted September 6, 2023 This timeless work of art is the single greatest thing to come from the Mega Duck: Isn't it incredible?  And the range of emotions it stirs up... I mean, just look at the miserable expression frozen on the dead wolf's face! Those rowdy swine took their time and enjoyed murdering him. 😢 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Well now that's a system seller right there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UrQuan3 Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023  I sat down yesterday to ask if the seller of a Super A’can devkit on eBay had documented more about the system than what was in the listing (it is now well out of my budget). Then I found that the seller had also mentioned selling it on AtariAge. Then I follow the link in their profile and find that they own the rights to one of the games that turned up on the Super A’can, implying that they either wrote the game, or know the people that did. I wonder if they documented any of that?  Answer: yes. https://www.diskman.com/presents/supersango/   Good work sir, and thank you. If you have heard any other info on what the game industry in Taiwan was like, or would like to share any of your own work experience as a developer, I am sure there are some of us that would love to hear about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I do write any other articles of that nature, I'll def share 'em here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 @fcgamer Paging Dave. He owns the whole library of the A-Can minus a piece or two as far as I can recall. He develops games in Taiwan now for the Famicom, writes a book series on FC/Famiclone stuff (one of them I contributed a forward to.) He may have an idea of some things you could find useful about what past and present game development is in taiwan @UrQuan3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
