Games!

I'm interested in all the 7800 manuals. PM me please.

Decided to put my boxed 2600 games on the shelf in my office.

Rastan (Arcade)

Eragon (PS2)

Cool video! Wet wipes to Greenween....STAT!

Well, this is the best I can do. Increased my high score only slightly to 67797

Some N64, SNES, and Genesis games.

M-Network Football - boxed.

Nazo Puyo (Game Gear)

I'm just going to take pictures of systems as I take them out and use them... Here's my C64 setup. That little device to the left is an SD2IEC disk drive emulator. Allows loading disk images off an SD cart. It has a "fast load" bios built in...so a lot faster than a real disk drive. Plus the cool case that makes it look like a 1541-II.

Star Raiders II (A8) - the newly discovered work in progress!

Gateway to Apshai (C64)

Revenge of the Mutant Camels (C64)

"It's Toymendous!". Love it. Good post Dan.

Here's a video of a store "Meier & Frank" in downtown Portland that used to have a Santa Land on the 10th floor each year. In addition to a visit with Santa, they had this awesome hanging monorail. Well, the store was bought out by Macy's, and the 10th floor is now part of a hotel...so no more Santa Land, sadly. I'm happy to say my kids got the chance to ride the monorail each year until it closed. Meier & Frank had a giant old-school department store downtown that was built in 1908. A picture of the building: Here's what it looks like today: There's a local story that before he was a star, Clark Gable sold neckties in this store in the 20's.

Very similar to Rowsdower's story: we had a toy store like that at our local mall here. It was really awesome -- they had bins up front for little toys for 10 cents or a quarter. Things like slide whistles, rubber balls, army men, etc. That made it easy to always come home with something good. Plus, the mall was outdoors/not-covered...probably the most fantastical place to shop when it snowed during Christmas time.
