Plug & Play Price Reductions

[digitalpress]

The Circuit City website has three of the plug & play units marked down to $9.99. The Frogger one caught my eye in particular, I haven't seen that one for less than $19.99 (which is why I haven't bought it). Namco II is a steal at this price as well.

Check it.

They were in Sunday's ad, so if your local CC doesn't have them bring the as to Best Buy, Wal Mart or Toys R US and you should have no trouble price matching. Price is through Saturday the 29th.

on a related note CVS drugstores are pushing out the intellivision 10-in-1 for $9.99.

i'm sure its been reviewed before so i'll make this brief. i got one cause i happened to be there and well you know, 10 bucks. its a blue controller, like a cheap 3rd party SNES pad with lots of redundent buttons and no number pad to speak of. theres not a retro-touch to it lookswise which is a pity. the games seem reasonably emulated but the wonkish control makes them almost unplayable. the worst part is hard to pin down but its definatley there, its the video signal. i couldnt even get it to play on my commie 1084S so i went to the main screen and the picture had faint bars pulsing thru it. in short, buy beware, its for very casual gaming at best.

the sad sequel to this... a company that now holds the colecovision license has contracted with the same manufacturer to make colecovision controller games. this cant be good, their hardware blows. honestly the controller execution was so cheap it has lowered my opinion of the "up-til-now" excellent blue sky rangers.

KB Toys has it at the same price. I finally picked one up last week at one that's closing for $4. Already had the 25 in 1 that I picked up last year for $10 but considering how bad the feedback has been on them, I doubt either will be opened ever.
