newcoleco Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Hi, My friend have a Bandai-Pippin for sale. he got it first from a guy who worked on the Ethernet support for this incredible game system. This console for sale came with a lot of things like cables, keyboard, gadgets and about 10 or 15 games complet in box. For those who have no idea what is Bandai-Pippin, know first that it's American inside! For those who think Apple should release a game system, you must know the story of Bandai-Pippin. Bandai-Pippin is a game system based on PowerPC (Apple-USA), released in 1995, with futurist caracteristics and design. CD-ROM drive on the front, control buttons on the top, usb ports for the gamepads, gamepads with trackball, ntsc-pal, s-video and vga ports... In year 1996, the Ethernet support (PrimeTech-Canada) was release for this game system. Unfortunatly, the video game market situation was bad for this console developed in North America, but good for Sony PS1. Only about 20 games were available for the Bandai Pippin game system and it's your chance to have an almost complet collection. Because of his lack of games, Bandai Pippin is in the top 10 of the biggest technology flops... I will tell you when my friend will start his incredible auction on eBay. Thank you for reading!

newcoleco Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 First pictures of the Pippin for sale... No ebay auction was done yet... in fact, I think I will avoid this service to keep the pippin for the collectors and gamers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 No ebay auction was done yet... in fact, I think I will avoid this service to keep the pippin for the collectors and gamers. So you post about an auction that's not up yet and then say that he's not going to auction it on ebay after all? Ooookay then...

jbanes Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 So you post about an auction that's not up yet and then say that he's not going to auction it on ebay after all? I'm guessing that's his way of saying "Make me an offer". I can start the bidding at $50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmOneGarand Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 you'd have to a "diehard" collector if you'd want one of these.. I didn't even think it had any games because it was basically DOA in the gaming scene. This is more of one of those things for somebody to gloat about but really lol who cares.

Headfamily Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 I think the came in past tense is what threw me. Thanks. Anybody know what games did come out for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbanes Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Here's the complete list of games for the system: GAME & WATCH NAME PUBLISHER COUNTRY AI Shougi ASG Japan CineNoir Bandai USA Compton's Encyclopedia Bandai USA Cool Crafts Bandai USA Exotic Sushi Bandai USA Gundam Mobility Fleet Bandai USA Gus Goes to Cyberopolis Bandai USA Gus Goes to Kooky Carnival Bandai USA DL-Zone: Interactive Theater Bandai Japan Movieoke Bandai USA Mr. Potato Head Bandai USA Navigator Apple USA Pegasus Prime Bandai USA Power Rangers Zeo Bandai USA Racing Days Bandai USA Shockwave: Invasion Earth 2019 Electronic Arts Japan Super Marathon Bandai USA T-Break Infocity Japan Tarot Mystery Visit Japan Telebi Works Apple USA Terror T.R.A.X. Bandai USA Web Browser Apple USA Taken from here: http://www.gooddealgames.com/Release_Lists/RL_Pippin.html So "10 to 15 games" would probably be the entire US collection. Not a bad package. I'd pay $50 for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManShowBoy Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 Can you take a pic of Racing Days in action? I've just never seen one Pippin game screen in my life, so I have no idea what the graphics look like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just never seen one Pippin game screen in my life, so I have no idea what the graphics look like. My friend take back his Pippin stuff, so I can't take a picture of any game running for the moment. However, I added the pictures of the boxed games in a previous message here. Go take a look! And yes, it still possible to make me an offer. Edited March 16, 2007 by newcoleco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

98PaceCar Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 What would be considerd a serious offer? This is a difficult package to price and if a starting point were given, I might be more interested in trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
