How Much Do You Figure These Are Worth?

I just noticed you have Race (Sears) and Indy 500 (Atari) on your list, they are the same game just relaeased under another name.

 

So far we have:

Spider-man

Galaxian

Indy 500 (w/ pair of controllers)

Donkey Kong

Frogger

Journey Escape

Raiders of the Lost Ark

E.T.

Riddle of the Sphinx

Dark Cavern

Armour Ambush

I'll throw in Solaris free since I can't use it and you can make sure you are able to play PAL games.

 

How about, $15 for the games and $5 for the pair of driving controllers + exact shipping?

Yeah that sounds pretty damn good. Airmail shipping is generally pretty cheap to Canada. I got a box with 9 NES games in it and 1 SNES one and it only cost $8.75.

where can i get pal xman reasonable? me want!

Try eBay Holland or Germany. I have seen a few sell for around EUR 20,-

Thanks Elliot! Payment sent.

 

I bought a crap ton more off ebay, including one of the rare ones on my list, Kool-Aid Man, which was only $6 shipped. I gotta stop now as I've been buying way too much stuff. Hehe.

 

Still taking suggestions though.

 

EDIT: Do many Atari games use controllers for even just a one player game? I read somewhere to pole vault Peewee in Porky's, you gotta hit the button on the other controller.

Yeah Ghost Busters II is not terribly expensive. I think I paid around $5-10 for my boxed copy. There's also an NTSC conversion floating around that Thomas did, it's possible to have it put on cart as well.

 

You might add Spider-Man in place of Crazy Climber, they are similar style of games.

 

Here is the NTSC conversion from Thomas.

Ghostbusters II is one of my favorite games. it is very good.

Got my 2600 today! Looks snazzy but something left me perplexed. On the bottom of some of the carts, there's a piece of plastic covering the contacts (I assume at least), how do I get this thing off? I've never seen this before!

If you are talking about the dust covers in games like Combat, Ms PacMan, Space Invaders, etc. It doesn't come off, it slides up when you insert the cartridge into the system.

Pardon my retardedness. I was sure it was some sort of device to keep the games clean.

 

Got a few games that don't seem to want to work properly, Circus, Venture, Space Cavern, Football, and Grand Prix. Seems like a trend with the ones without the dust cover thing.

 

EDIT: Problem solved, you have to hit select to reset to start the games. That kinda sucks. Not sure where I'm going to put the ol 2600 now that I have to be within an armlength of it to play some games. I'll figure it out as I go along.

 

Is there a normal RF Unit you can get with these things so you don't have to unplug your cable just to play the game?
