What are your Top 10 Most Wanted Classic games under $20.00

[Anthony1]

I know that alot of you guys dream about certain rare games and imports that go for huge bucks, but what are your 10 most wanted games that you feel like you could get for less than 20 bucks?



Here is mine:


1. Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past - SNES
2. Dungeon Explorer - Turbo Grafx 16
3. Super Mario Kart - SNES
4. DOOM - Atari Jaguar
5. Legendary Axe - Turbo Grafx 16
6. Sonic and Knuckles - Sega Genesis
7. Banjo Kazooie - Nintendo 64
8. Clockwork Knight - Sega Saturn
9. Jurassic Park - Sega Genesis
10. Astal - Sega Saturn


Obviously by my list you can tell that I'm just starting as a retro gamer, and I'm almost starting from scratch with alot of these systems. I want to get all these games, but I just don't want to pay a ton of money for them. I've been watching them on Ebay, but when the auction is close to ending the prices always seem to go over my impulse buy point.

OK, let's see...

1. Star Strike for 2600 - I've always wanted to try the 2600 version of this INTV gem for real, and yet damned if I've ever found one.
2. Robotron for 5200 - but only if I can get the double-joystick holder with it.
3. Ram It for 2600 - I love this game, used to have it before the Great Cartridge Loan of '85 (of which the less said the better)...and damned if I can find another copy for less than fifteen or twenty bucks! C'mon people, it's not Quadrun!
4. Final Conflict for Apple II - I loved this game, but my floppy got messed up during one of my many moves in the past 10 years. It was a budget title from Hayden Software.
5. Spare Change for Apple II - I've heard so much good stuff about this game, and always thought it had a neat concept. I'd like to try it someday.
6. Zelda for NES - I know, you think I'm kidding, right? I've never played it before. Another one I'd just like to try without spending arms and/or legs on the game.
7. Tetris Plus for PSX
8. Star Trek 20th Anniversary for NES (I don't really know if this is a less-than-$20 game or not)
9. Anything for my Atari 400 - even commons! This beautiful thing has been at the ready in my game room forever, and I still haven't gotten around to getting anything for it!
10. Under The Root for Apple II

Hopefully that's an eclectic enough variety for everyone. :P

2. Robotron for 5200 - but only if I can get the double-joystick holder with it.
4jays (http://www.4jays.com/atari5200.html) has 5200 joystick couplers for $19.95, which leaves you a nickel to get the cart and negative X dollars for shipping. Does anybody else stock the coupler?

I don't think there is anything under 20 dollars I'm looking for.

Maybe Fist of the North Star for the NES.

[Sylentwulf]

I'm with Butta, I don't think there are any, if it's under $20 and I want it, I usually get it :)

[bargora]

Front Mission 3 (PSX)
Doom (GBA)
Doom II (GBA)
Ghost in the Shell (PSX)
Nectaris: Military Madness (PSX)
Namco Museum Vol. 5 (PSX)

It's just that I have so many games I'm playing right now that at some point last month I lost the sense of urgency that had been driving me to CATCH 'EM ALL RIGHT NOW. I think that point was also somewhere around the time that I looked at the bills we have to pay.

Poor me. Boo hoo. I'll just not get my games and be stuck playing dumb old Steel Battalion and Radiant Silvergun. :(

In no particular order...

Wizard of Wor - 2600
Star Wars Arcade - 5200
