AtariBrian Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 OK. Here is what I took out. This was a really awesome box and cram packed with stuff, so I do apologize but I was unable to put a few things I wanted to put in. 1. Minestorm overlay for the Vectrex!!! I have been wanting this overlay for years and never been able to get my hands on. This will live on my Vectrex! 2. Golf and F1 race for the famicom 3. Boxed Basketball for the 2600 4. 10 Yard Fight for the N.E.S. 5. A bunch of Manuals and bruchures (very cool one for Yars' Revenge, multi language) 6. Fix-It Felix Jr. for the genesis. This is crazy, I didn't know this existed and my daughter and I watch Wreck it Ralph all the time and I always thought it would be cool if this game actually existed, and it does. jmjustin6, chas10e, RickR and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Ah yes, Fix-It Felix has two versions available for the Genesis. I know one of the developers and his version is better as it has the intro and everything. There are even arcade machines that have been made of this game!

RickR Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Great picks! But I put a Hot Wheel in there just for you Not really, it just fit perfectly in the space left. AtariBrian, Rowsdower70, Ballblaɀer and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballblaɀer Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 Man, the toughest part about going through the junk box is wanting to take out something small and valuable. Now I need to figure out what I can put back of equal value that actually fits in the box! But wow, this box has some great stuff in it. Great job, everyone.

Ballblaɀer Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 The RJB will ship on out to correagonzalez tomorrow; I expect to have a video showing what I took from the box online by then, too. I managed to fit my additions into the box alright, but I had to pull out two things to get the box closed: I'll either use NFS Sonic and the mystery N64 cart in a future junk box (perhaps I can host the one after NSG's) or I can certainly send them on to anyone who might want them now.

correagonzalez Posted February 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 Not sure if this is the same n64 cart with no label that I threw in the junk box, but if it's is should be hot wheels turbo racing, I did test it before and was working, but it can be a complete different game that someone else threw in.

Ballblaɀer Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 I forgot -- the Post Office is closed for Presidents' Day! It's all boxed up and ready to go, though, and I'll take it over to ship out to correagonzalez tomorrow. In the meantime, here's what I took out!
