DOS Games Discussion

Pre-Disclaimer: I am only looking for this one particular thing(s), so I may write this out long just to be a suck-up. Asking for one thing is fine, and I don't want your guy's spam either (either you give it to me for free, or you don't... same goes if you want to make a deal with me)... so without further adeiu:


I am currently looking for old ATARI 2600 games, plus system and joysticks, paddlesticks (working condition please)

If you know where to find one (generally speaking, a person who would consider not being so greedy as to put it on E-Bay... so no ebay please) please post it... or I could buy such stuff at which stores??? (besides some pawn shop that rips you off anyway)

Or if you have one can you let me know? Even if the system (or games, joysticks etc.) is non-working I can get my uncle to fix it.
My parents have one at their house *erhem* *cough* *stole it*

... then again, this is on the topic of games, however I have posted it here since people should only be looking for dosgames or help elsewhere. Although they claim it to be theirs... it was a gift to us kids (few years ago) from our uncle, who fixes anything he can get his hands on (TV's and radios too)... I was very surprised at the fact he got it working... now can't enjoy it cause' I don't have anymore.

Then again, maybe that was God telling me to move on... get an N64 instead???

One of my other sites vgstores.com allows you to browse online video games by selecting a console system. So for example you select "Atari 2600" and it shows you all the online stores that sell games/systems/etc for Atari 2600:

One highlight is "O'Shea Limited" who offer a bunch of 2600 carts at $5 each:

Of course I don't know how good/bad they are, they look legit, in spite of the fact that their website design is decidedly 1996-ish. You can see pictures of their "underground cave" warehouse here:

I've heard that flea markets and garage sales are good places for old classic gaming stuff but really I'm too lazy to search out those places

I hope they will respond to my e-mail.

I asked for everything that my parents took:

- the system
- the games (50)
- the paddles, joysticks, and one super-joystick (if
you gamed on the 2600, you know what I'm talking
about)... shoot, I should'v asked for that controller
for Star Raiders... I was just getting the hang of that
game

It sure won't be cheap either... but I guess that comes with a cost.

My uncle finds stuff like that all the time... just don't want
to get him angry - he spent hours on end to get that little
(2 bit, rather, errr, BIG) system up and running
Oh well, such is life

good luck getting one man, I have one at my cottage, but I'm not willing to give it up. I love it far too much.

I'm looking for fre SNES games if anyone wants to send them to me. Actually, I have $4.50 for anyone that has Chrono trigger for SNES.

Oh hell no... not another <a href=http://redwing.hutman.net/~mreed/warrio ... mancer.htm> necromancer</a>.

Um, not trying to flame or anything, but you DO realize that Radray hasn't posted here in nearly a year? If you really want to help him, you could try e-mailing him, though reviving long dead topics like this just to respond to specific posts doesn't do any good.
