I had a cool Microvision find yesterday. 4 boxed games and 2 loose. the boxed games were Star Trek Phaser Strike, Sea Duel, Baseball and Cosmic Hunter. the loose games were Bowling and Connect Four. grand total was $3 bucks!! the 4 boxed games were all taped together in a bundle, I didn't even know the 2 loose ones were in the boxes till I opened them at home. that was a nice surprise. I tested everything and it all works great.

I'm not sure how many people are familiar with this system. It's the first interchangeable cartridge handheld game system. It came out in 1979. Not much fun to play but pretty cool from a gaming history perspective.

here's a picture: (I already had the system, found that about 2 years ago, at the same store in fact.)

Yup...now I have renewed faith in the hopes of finding something at a thrift store, even if it's 100 Combat and E.T. carts! LOL

Den68, I am envious!!!

@RetroYoungen: sure, you welcome to stop by and play them whenever you like. I'll pass on "taking you" though. I mean I'm flattered... but...

@MArioAllStar2600: stuff is out there. I do go out everyday to find it which gets tedious but is worth it when I do find something. I do still get surprised when something that OLD and relatively obscure turns up.

Very jealous - I so want a boxed Microvision (complete and in mint condition) and all of the games (boxed as well.)

Great finds!
