Re: Your rarest game, and how much you bought it for.

I guess I don't have very rare games, the rarest would be Micro Machines 2, Timon & Pumbaa and Tetris Attack for SNES and Super Turrican for NES.

My copy of M.U.L.E. for the Atari 8-bit line is pretty rare, perhaps moreso than Panzer Dragoon Saga.

My real trophies, with other peoples pictures:

* Joust Pinball - only 402 made. http://www.appolo.com/projects/joustpin ... inball.htm

* Food Fight - I _think_ only 1900 or so were made. Not a great production run, but collectors don't readily give this one up. http://www.ataricade.com/foodfight.htm. I only wish mine was in such immaculate condition as this guys.

* Warlords Cocktail - around 1200 made. http://www.brentradio.com/WarlordsCocktailRegistry.htm

Didn't know about that Joust Pinball. :shock:

Play Food Fight on the 5200, interesting game.

I would love to play this one just for the sounds!
Gotta get back to the Vegas Pinball Museum!

Food Fight really needs the specialized joystick found in arcades. While standing still you can move the joystick around and simply point in any direction -- flinging food at the chefs chasing you. Move the joystick a tad further in a direction, and Charlie Chuck starts running. Its a great little game that feels like part shooter/part football.

Alot of the 80s pinball games sound exactly like Williams video games. Even Bally games, prior to the Williams buy-out, sound suspiciously like Robotron, Defender, Joust, etc.

I need to get back to the PHoF as well. Since I was last there, they moved into a larger facility.

I guess that would be DDR: Mario Mix. Why didn't I keep the Damn box?

I embarrassingly have PS1 Disney Mix, not my rarest but bought it at a good price. PS1 VIB Ribbon probably up there along with my Vectrex carts with overlays.
