Video Game "Look what I found"

[BRIK]

Not the greatest deal ever, but not bad either since I'm in a PAL region. $35 for the lot, from Gumtree (a Craiglist type website).

for $34 total from a local shop. they also have a boxed Vectrex and 4 games for $300... might end up heading back eventually with some stuff to trade.

Do you remember what games?

not off the top of my head. i thought $300 was a reasonable price for a boxed system.

Depending on the game list it could be a helluva deal. For example, Minestorm 2 goes for $400-500. And if it has 3d Minestorm cart only Id be willing to buy that off you.

Added these to my collection today for 25. The unlabeled game is GHII but the guy threw it in for free so I only paid for the other games(he didn't want a unlabeled game just sitting there in the case ha ha....still a great deal if you ask me

The local BookOff here recently acquired a pristine Vectrex (no box) and it did not have a price tag yet. First thing I did was see if any accessories or games might have also came in. No luck, just the vector screen console and with a crisp controller with no looseness on the analog stick. I told the employee they should plug it in to try the built in Minestorm game. Surprised them that there is already a game inside and discovering the hinged hidden controller. Most of the employees and customers have never seen a Vectrex and were amazed at the "Asteroids" game. At first they thought it was defective with dots and vector lines all over the screen (from the initial mine placement but over saturated; a way to cheat the game) until I turned the intensity knob on the back down. A nice unit without any buzzing, but I have no need for another.

I should not have fooled with that knob, it was after the "fix" did it get a 200 dollar price tag. Ah well, I'm a regular there and they always take care of me so nice to return a favor. I have most of the games including all the 3d imager carts and three color wheels. I just need the glasses, light pen and cart and especially that rare Minestorm 2 cart to make my three units near complete.

One of the neater "remakes" to look for is the Spinnerama game cart that converted some of the Vectrex games to work with a 2600 driving controller. Spinnerama also contains MINESTORM 2.

I converted two hybrid Apple II sticks to work with the Vectrex. For anyone who has not seen this picture, two of the "black and white" TVs were bought at the Swap Meet for only twenty bucks each a few years back.

Just got back from goodwill and found a pelican hd system selector and a Sega master system 2 but it's a pal console.

and a Sega master system 2 but it's a pal console.

The carts wont matter, but of course the TV output is the problem.

That's what I just noticed. I got a signal in channel 86 or something black and white and it has sonic built in.

went really early to my local fleamarket for once. I got these goodies. Although I realize I probably would have found most of these things if I had gone at my usual time.

PS2 Guitar Hero II and Guitar Hero Encore Rocks the 80's both CIB $2.00 for both.

$8.00 got me: Gran Torino Blu-ray, Replicant DVD and a Longbox PS1 Destruction Derby. the ps1 game's cardboard box was okay but the glue holding the plastic for the cd is loose in it. I've seen this happen a lot on these now old cardboard games. Old glue is old!

A disc only copy of PS3 Rainbow Six Vegas 2 for $2.00

oXBOX Pyschonauts , Advent Rising and Unreal II The Awakening $9.00 for them.

$8.00 again got me all of thesee goodies too! The Replacement killers Blu-ray, Snoop Dog's Greatest hits, a trance music cd, and some PS1 games: Jet Moto 2, Nascar 99, Turbo Prop Racing and R4 Ridge Racer Type 4. All are CIB. I'm happy for getting the ridge racer game again. I've only had it disc only, and now I have it complete.

And to round everything off. A mighty mugg of Ghost Rider for $2.00



not too bad!

I'm so confused with that splitter. It has 3 inputs, but 4 buttons. Why does it also have an extra set of audio outputs?
