Title: Pretty poor this week, just a pong clone.
Post by: thx1138 on August 21, 2004, 10:59:54 AM
Mrs.THX got me a Binatone TV Master mkIV (a pong clone, licensed by Magnavox in the USA) boxed, for £3.50

I've found nothing at all in the wild. I traded the very last of my spare junk in at Gamestation, and have £40 credit to spend on Monday. Will not trade anything else (much) in now, as eBay tends to pick up again from Septemb er onwards.

Purchased either in Gamestaion or on eBay a few more Megadrive games, and so my boxed Megadrive games is in the high 150's :)

gutted to find that Pac Panic that I bought, is faulty, and won't work. :(

I have Pong clones by National Semiconductor, Haminex and K-mart, which is the first console I ever got, purchased in 1977.

The best thing i got was yesterday from my mom. It was a book basically outlining the history of videogames. I cant remember the title off hand but I think it was called "Game Over an Illustated guide to the history of Video Games". What i read was very interesting.

Nice find on Virtua Fighter Kids.  It's not that hard to find, but harder than the other virtua fighting games.

They also had Baku Baku, but they wanted £15 for it, so I did not get it.
