My copy of Dragster is a pain, and I've never gotten it to work with my 2600 Jr. Activision carts are a NIGHTMARE to deal with.
-
My haul from a local retro game store.
IronSword: Wizards & Warriors II for the NES, Night Stalker for the Intellivision, Math Gran Prix for the 2600, and ChuChu Rocket for the Dreamcast, all for $20.

I got myself another INTV game at the store today. Night Stalker.

Also, I sadly don't have any pics of my Intellivision collection on hand.
-
Also, I'm apparently flush with CIB Utopia games. Anyone need a copy?
I'd love a copy of Utopia. What would you take for it?

Not much, but I'll look to see what I have and get back to you.

As an aside, the Master System is the next classic console I want to pursue. It has a modest library, sure, but it is by no means a miniscule one. Over 300 titles, I believe, which is nothing to sniff at. Add to that the console has NO region lock between NTSC and PAL Master Systems, meaning pretty much all the best European exclusive titles can be played on an American SMS, so it's an importer's dream.
A great system, and a worthy predecessor to the Genesis.

The Master System was (and still is) HUGE in Brazil.
Pretty big in Europe, too, where the NES was nearly mythical in comparison.

Alas, it's only the case and manual, no disc.

As promised, here's my haul.
The games aren't too exciting, but that is the first time I've ever found a Genesis game at a Goodwill.

Ok, so I went to the local Goodwill here. It's having a grand opening sale at its new location, in addition to the July 4th sale.
Anyway, I made out like a bandit.
After my success with getting my Dreamcast connected to my tv recently, I had just started thinking about my Xbox again, and decided I needed to get accessories for it next.
BAM! Not only did I find not one, but TWO av cables, but a Gamestop brand Xbox controller, too!
If that wasn't enough, I found a genuine Nintendo GBA SP charger... Not even a week after I bought a generic GBA charger off of Ebay.
I also found a Genesis game, Wii game, and a case for an Xbox game, AND another 3DS charger.
I'll post pics of the results here shortly.

UPDATE: I now have a Dreamcast controller, VMU, and av cable on the way, as well as a GBA SP charger. This was a good day!

This very much reminds me of the Children's Discovery System from Mattel. It likewise has an LCD screen, and takes cartridges with keyboard overlays. However, the CDS never had a voice module, and could only output beeps and bloops. I'm pretty sure the CDS came first, and one wonders if Vtech was inspired by it. The two systems are visually somewhat similar in appearance. I can't help but see this Vtech system as a successor to the failed Mattel CDS.I just couldn't leave this VTech Learning Window to sit unwanted next to alarm clocks, junk cameras, and VCRs. For being a toy computer from 1985, the thing is pretty amazing. Dot matrix animated LCD display, accepts a voice module cartridge, runs additional cartridges (that come boxed with keyboard overlays). It still works; takes six C batteries.
Anyone here into collecting these kinds of things? I've got this and an original Sears Computron (with box and AC adapter) if someone has interest.
I didn't know until just now that the Computron was also a VTech product. Cool.
Also, I'm interested, but I have another deal with another member I have to pay off first. If you'd be willing to hold onto it for a little while, I'd love to work out something... That thing would look great with my Mattel CDS.

Whoa, is that the game you could lock the regular Sonic 3 into for a whole new experience?

Dr. Mario (NES)

Commodore made calculators?

Hey, Rick, my copy of Outlaw is a gold/yellow text label. You say that isn't listed on AtariAge?

I still like to imagine "Attack of the Time Lord" is a long lost Doctor Who game.

Over this past weekend I was at my childhood home, and I knew there were some hidden treasures waiting to be found. It took some poking around the dusty basement, but I found pretty much everything I was looking for. Here are two of the things I was most hoping to find:
I've got some LR44 batteries coming in the mail, but until they arrive these Nintendo Game & Watch beauties will have to remain untested. I see no reason why they won't still work -- fingers crossed, anyway.
What I *didn't* know was that I saved the boxes and documentation, too! I am typically *not* a box collector, but for whatever reason I hung onto these.
Jeez, Nintendo -- want to be a little more descriptively specific about the potential danger to babies?
More handheld goodness to come in the next few days!
I am completely lusting for those!!!
