Albert Posted April 4, 2004 Share Posted April 4, 2004 We have acquired five copies of the initial, numbered run of Castle Blast, which made its debut at the 2002 Classic Gaming Expo. Only 100 (or so, I don't have an exact count right now) copies were made, and each is individually numbered. We are selling them for $35 each, and I don't remember what they sold for at the show but I know it was more than $35. The numbered copies available are: 048, 066, 074, 077, and 085 Update: They're all gone! For those not familiar with Castle Blast, it's one of the first 5200 homebrew games, based on the mothership wave of the arcade game Phoenix. Ronen used this experience as a means to write a tutorial on Atari 5200 programming to assist others who might want to write games for the system. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Posted April 4, 2004 Author Share Posted April 4, 2004 Number 085 is now gone, only four remaining. And I did hear back from Ronen, he said only 100 copies were made. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
