This is for you, @Willie!. I found two boxed Channel F games for you. Couldn't find any loose and I'm pretty sure there was a third one last time, but here they are. Videocart 12, Baseball, and Videocart 4, Spitfire. #4 is from when it was still called the VES. Behind them you can see the boxed Intellivision games. NBA Basketball, Space Armada, and a whole lotta Las Vegas Poker and Blackjack. Take note, @socrates63. I didn't see SNAFU, but I wasn't really looking. I've said this before, but very often their boxed games are the same price as their loose ones as far as the 2nd generation is concerned. Also on this shelf (but not shown) are the boxed 2600 games, boxed 5200 games, boxed Colecovision games, boxed Odyssey 2 games, and boxed 7800 games. There are varying amounts of each. I saw a lot of boxed Intellivison games (probably kept from the trash for overlay storage by their original owners), but only one boxed 5200 game. Today I did see 2600 Ms. Pac-Man and Frogger sealed. I am not sure if it is the original seal, but since many of the other games don't have it they may be NIB. They are typically a little bit more than their loose and CIB counterparts.

@RickR I forgot to mention something when I quoted you originally, so I am going to mention it here so not to reach my maximum post limit again:
"WOW!  That store has a huge selection of great games.  I will tell you that most stores here have about 1/10 the 2600 stuff as that.  No 5200 or 7800 games.  And definitely ZERO TI-99 or VIC-20.
And all those boxed consoles!  If I ever make it to my work's mothership location, I'm bringing an extra suitcase to buy some of that good junk."
Yes. Typically what I would do when I wanted a new 2600 game is play a few on my emulator and decide which one to pick up. Sometimes it would be too pricey and I wouldn't buy it, but never finding the game at all was never an issue, at least for Atari systems. Nintendo, on the other hand... heh. I have had to wait quite a while before I saw certain Nintendo games I was looking for. I don't mind the wait really, but with Atari stuff, especially 2600, it was always there.
There was one time where there wasn't a game I was looking for. When I got Tunnel Runner (you can't get on the list for games on Atari systems as they're all listed as miscellaneous in their system so I had to call in and check constantly for that one), I had a discount ready and I was looking for Sky Diver. I couldn't find it that day, but I did find Miniature Golf, which I did not expect to find. When I went back again today there were no less than eight copies of Sky Diver. Plus Sky Skipper.
I guess it just never really crossed my mind that other stores weren't like this.
I had an idea, though. It's a long shot and I would have to okay it with my parents first, but I was thinking perhaps there was a game someone couldn't find I could pick it up for them and mail it to them. For instance, I know Young has been looking for a few 7800 games recently at some of his local places. If say, I had seen one of those games at this Game Trade place and he wanted to buy it, we could work something out. It would work in reverse as well. Say The No Swear Gamer saw a copy of Tengen Tetris for NES while browsing his local game store that Rick had been on the lookout for (just an example), @nosweargamer could buy it for Rick and Rick could pay him back + shipping costs. We could essentially create a network of local game stores. We all live in different places with different games nearby that other members of the I/O might be on the lookout for. Just a thought.

Yep, I love the ole F, did a fun podcast on it as well with my bud Scott from RetroGaming Roundup (one episode we talk with one of the members on the team with Jerry Lawson 🙂) .  I have a lot of history with the Channel F, more than just playing it :).

I am soooo bad :P
