Ballblaɀer Posted March 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 http://imgur.com/a/MsFRO Like this one? Sorry about the rotated image. Indeed -- I believe you mentioned this one to me in our PMs on AA. I think I'd rather avoid a trade for JUST this, because the cost to ship it to me would be something like 10x what the game itself is worth (in my mind, anyway)! That said, I'm *positive* you'll have something else I want soon enough, if not already. We can build a trade -- we have the technology!

RickR Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 I think at least 3 or 4 of your want list is in the current Junk Box 4. Maybe they'll be left when it gets back to it's origin. Arenafoot and Ballblaɀer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nosweargamer Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 btw, my atari football is orange, not green. I guess they made two text colors of it.

Generally I try to avoid buying boxes, but when the price is right and I feel like it's a box I could sell/trade as a standalone, I'll at least consider it! I have a few of these you want (indy 500, football, homerun) Send me a photo or three? And see what looks interesting to you from my trade list. Hopefully we can work something out!

nosweargamer Posted March 12, 2016 Report Share Posted March 12, 2016 Actually I took photos of everything before I read your post. The Ikari box does have crushing. I can take more photos on request, but clicking on the photos should make them larger.

nosweargamer Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 I'd be willing to do all three including the CIB Ikari for: Fun With Numbers (text label, missing end label) Kaboom (standard label) Stellar Track (Sears pic label) Tac-Scan Those are the only games on your list I don't have (I made a dummy move and accidentally sold my kaboom thinking it was a double a few months back) :mellow: Let me know if that works for you.

RickR Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 (edited) "Fun With Numbers" is the same as "Basic Math", right? That's really cool. I wonder which was first, and why it was renamed? Really nice trade you guys. Edited March 14, 2016 by RickR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballblaɀer Posted March 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 Yes -- same game. Basic Math was one of the original nine gatefold-box releases -- i.e. "61 Basic Math". I'm pretty sure the re-titling to Fun With Numbers occurred in 1980, about the same time as the title change for "Hunt and Score" (which became "A Game of Concentration"). They first appear in the Rev. D 1980 Atari catalog, I'm pretty sure. Why were they renamed? I can only assume the marketing department decided that including words like "Fun" and "A Game" in the titles might generate a few more sales. "Fun With Numbers" in a toy store might fool a kid (or parent!) into think it's actually a fun title, whereas... a title like "Basic Math" is as bland (but accurate!) as can be.

Ballblaɀer Posted March 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 My wanted list (first post in this thread) has been updated -- thanks to trades, finds in local shops, and a few eBay buys in the last week I've managed to cross off a fair amount missing from my collection... even a few scarce titles. I've also updated my trade/sale list with a handful of new 2600 games, and a couple of 5200 games. If there's something I have that you want for your collection, PM me or post here -- hopefully we can work something out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormSurge Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Sorry Ballblazer, I didn't have a chance to spend time in the basement this weekend. I'm going to make time tonight. I know I have at least one of the games on your list. I'm hoping for a couple more. I'll get pics up tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
