Going for it!
Well tonight I did some thinking, watched some videos, and found ALOT of games I want to play on the jaguar. So...I went and found a complete list and started looking up some of the games that I wanted to try out...turns out, of course, those better/good games...are up in price or...just can not be found at all.
I have tried to take on the nes collection before, not getting far but over 100 games with some of those games being titles worth 40-50$. But...nes games are ALL over ebay and ALL around you at fleamarkets, pawn shops, good will, so on so on.
My question to you guys...is this, do any of you know a good source that tends to have jaguar games in stock alot? Or do any of you have a collection you may part out one day? I am only doing COMPLETE games if I can, and I am not trying to buy 20 games at once, just really looking for a source thats not ebay where you MIGHT find ONE copy of a game your looking for...if your lucky.

Re: Going for it!
The Atari Jaguar has some great games like Tempest 2000 one of the main reasons I picked it up!! I picked up a ton of games bundled cheap on eBay and also found some at my flea markets. I also picked up some on various sites that aren't too expensive for the most part on most titles.

Re: Going for it!
wish i could help. i've been scouring retro shops, pawn shops, and good wills for about 2 years now and have only seen 2 used incomplete jag games. i didn't pick up either as they were nothing special. i guess if i ever see one in the wild i should grab it eh?

Re: Going for it!
I'd recommend checking out AtariAge. That's the best site for everything Atari related, you'll find everything you need to know there. I believe there's at least 2 sites that still sell Jaguar games, including some of the newer releases, you should be able to find those sites on AtariAge.
Good luck in your quest!

Re: Going for it!
Thanks guys, going to check out some of these sites right not and bookmark them I am sure. All this means is I will probly have some cool stuff forsale soon just to clear out room for more crap lol.
I thought about if I found any games sealed I would buy 2 to open one to play and to save. I just dont know if its really worth it in the long rung...its just a jaguar ya know?
I did find a place that sells the console AND the cd add on SEALED...which was shocking. Cost a bit of money, but I figure maybe at tax time I will pick one up just to sit around. I believe it only had 12 games anyway, only 2 being anything I want to play.

Re: Going for it!
Jaguar CD is pretty expensive and rare considering only around 20,000 units were manufactured and a good portion were faulty. I got lucky and found it for less than $50. They usually go for around $200 or more on average on eBay if you can find any. There were less than 15 titles for CD add-on I would recommend Dragon's Lair not much to choose from unfortunately.

After I do business with this person I will post a link and all contact information. I dont want someone getting ripped off and them thinking I had something to do with it. I will test the waters and if its great WOOHOO, and if its not, atleast I am out of the money and I can only blame myself.
