Are you bringing it to Philly? If so, can you come outside to the parking lot to show it to me? :2gunfire:

I don't suppose there's anything in that Rush Hour box is there?
Where's Mines of Minos?

if that came from where I think it came from, that means my chances of getting a boxed one just went from slim to none :(

not sure- probably at least 15. from what i understand there are 5 new in box ones, and one complete (used) one- all the others are loose.
this one is new in box

For answers to questions like "how many were made", look no further than our crack (addicted) journalism. Come on. You KNOW all the answers are on the DP site, right?

congrats!
Yeah it's stuff like this that made me realize that there can be only a few, the proud, the complete NTSC 2600 collections, and made me realize that I should let it go.
Doesn't mean I won't try to get close though!!! My top rares are Quadrun w/ manual, Qbert Qubes with manual, Music Machine, and Obelix NTSC
Cheers,

Next time (if you have one hehe!) hide it in the bread box, you will be sure it won't leave your house.
You?? What the hell are Sean and I gonna do with the other 20 of them?

Its time like this that you sit and wonder how many times you passed up this or any other grail type find just because A)you didn't know what it was, and B) you didn't care at the time.

What was the point of Video Life anyway. I read somewhere that you create some kind of electronic life and watch it evolve and grow. Kinda like Populace.
