You may have already told us...but I think we all know I'm forgetful....Are you going to start a game-by-game series of Lynx reviews?  Because that would be AWESOME. 

 

Actually, one of my listeners decided to start a Lynx GBG podcast, but had to put it on hold when he changed careers right after. Last I heard, he plans to pick it back up once things settle down.

RickR comes through for me with another set of fixed-up paddles -- I had to trade away the last set that he sent to me as part of the deal that netted me Chase the Chuckwagon, etc. Super happy to be able to play paddle games again!

Also included was a Touch Me (broken, but still really cool), a copy of Air Raiders (one more M-Network cart to go!), and for good measure he added a bonus World War I Flying Ace, to help me take down the Red Baron once and for all...

 

Thanks for another great trade!

From my buddy Rowsdower70.  I'm up to 79 Intv games now!

 

He also sent me a 5200 controller that needs some fixin', and a doo-dad for a Wii controller.  But I'm too lazy to picturize those. 

79 is enough for you to go after the whole collection!    Yew can dew eeet!

Lots of great trades today!  First from jmjustin, I was able to add a really spiffy copy of Checkers to my INTV collection:

Then from the Dom himself, RickR I got some great ColecoVision games for the Expo  AND he put a new battery in Pokemon for me!

Last but not least, the mighty Ballblazer was kind enough to trade me a couple of uncommon titles for the 2600.  Mountain King is a keeper for my collection, the jury is still out on Frostbite!

Two packages in the mail today!

 

First, from Ballblazer:

Shockingly, I did not have "Blackjack" in my collection because I always assumed it was the same as "Casino", but it is not!  Learned that in chat. 

 

Secondly, from nosweargamer:

A couple of harder-to-find 7800 games, and a surprise gift:  Combat!  It's the 10th duplicate of that game for me.  I totally LOL'ed at this. 

 

If I have not said it before, let me say it now...this has truly been a great way to expand my collection of games.  Thank you to Atari.io for this forum and to all the great members here.  THANK YOU.

Mail call!

First, a package from RickR with... travel documents?!

That's right, you and a guest will be taking a trip around the world with VIKING CRUISES!  First you'll cruise on up to the Great White North, where you'll score a Hat Trick with Wayne Gretzky in chilly Edmonton!*  After dispatching those pesky Flyers in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup, pack your skates... and your skis!  Because we'll be steaming on over to Calgary* for the 1988 Winter Games!  But don't get too caught up in conversation with Brian Boitano and Katarina Witt -- because your world tour comes to a conclusion in... historic Cairo!  But you won't be walking like an Egyptian -- you'll be flying like a Desert Falcon as you search the Sahara for the Pharaoh's treasures!  All of this can be yours, IF... The Price Is Right!

 

*Don't worry about how a cruise ship gets to Edmonton *or* Calgary, we'll figure it out later.  Somebody get Gordon Lightfoot on Line 1...

Not to be outdone, Rowsdower70 sends along the first Starpath Supercharger game in my collection: Dragonstomper!  And as if stomping dragons wasn't enough, we can also vanquish some more dragons with Jeb and Jake as we all play AD&D for INTV.

 

Thanks to you both!
