Roger Xplosion Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Got a whole bunch myself In a box labelled "retirement fund" - including the Zelda game wrist watch and those 2 player paddle releases - they are still great fun! And if any of you have one called Climber, know that it is worth a lot..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinball_wizard Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Awesome, some real memories there :) Plus these things are worth a tidy some nowadays.... Not really mate...I've been following these for years and unless you've got box and all bags in perfect mint condition...that DK is worth around $100. Same as it was 5yrs ago.

Pando Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 I've got Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Jr., Donkey Kong 3 and Bombsweeper. I'm actually really enjoying them lately and am looking on securing some more for the collection. I also clocked Donkey Kong Jr. the other night with a score of 1389 on Game B. At 999 the score resets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuzza Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 I used to play these all the time as a kid especially in the car on long road trips. Great fun! I still have the ones from my childhood: Manhole, Parachute, Tropical Fish, Octopus and Marios Cement Factory. Parachute was always my favourite. I remember seeing them as run out items at Cunninghams Warehouse back when I was a kid. They were like $30. Man I wish I had bought a bunch of them now with the prices! Great when you find that old childhood toy that you forgot about. Hard for me now as my folks downsized to a "lifestyle village" and so got rid of everything - luckily I took the game and watches when I moved out years before!

Roger Xplosion Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Took this when i was in Super Potato Japan a few years ago - was on a retro hunt and part of that was to find handhelds (Climber specifically) thinking that surely Japan would have excess and it'd be "cheap" - turns out Japan was waiting for me..... (the Climber price is 52900 YEN - feel free to convert...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pando Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 I can't make it out in the pic but does that Climber price include box, manuals, etc? Loose, it is much less than that on eBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnumpi Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I just need PINBALL to complete my collection. Disappointed to find my OIL PANIC started screen bleeding. Need to find OP too now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rat Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I bought three G&W when I went to Super Potato a few years ago, Pinball was one of them, but I thought the gameplay was terrible so I sold that one. I still have Turtle Bridge, but i should have bought Manhole as that was my first one BITD and holds the most memories. I might buy it one day....off to eBay for a look now :) - - - Updated - - - I won't be getting this one http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Nintendo-Game-And-Watch-Manhole-Gold-Or-JI21-Ji-21-J-i-21-/222379948108?hash=item33c6e0b84c:g:C3kAAOSwo4pYfPvj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pogi Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I remember playing these when I was young, and seeing these again in good condition at Super Potato, Trader, and Retro Game in Akihabara. Surprising how much these command now. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
