    Default Bandai Pippin

    A few folks may remember that I found and sold a prototype / prerelease version of the Bandai Pippin a year or two ago. The system was white, and it had stickers saying that it was not licensed for retail sale by the FCC (something about it still being in testing or something like that).

    Well, I found a retail system - a black @World with a gamepad today. It didn't include any hookups but it uses standard S-Video / RCA / power cords so that's no biggie. I couldn't find any software with it. I didn't buy it but I'm sure the system will still be there tomorrow (the price was relatively high, not too much but it's something your average buyer wouldn't pay for such an item.)

    How much would a standard black Bandai Pippin @World in this condition sell for? It had a 4MB memory card hooked up in the bottom panel. I don't mind spending a few bucks to get it if I can double or triple my investment. (Or if anyone wants it, well, here you go.)

    I would love to get one, but it's too close to the Oklahoma Videogame Expo for me to throw money around. I'd like to get one eventually, just as a curiosity, but not if it'll break the bank.

    This is the only black one I could find online, seller claims it's rare, but the price is out of wack:

    That's a complete in box set. There's no way that's worth $1100. Someone was selling CIB sets on eBay for $300, I think...

    The auction unit is quite a bit rarer than the true US unit. It's one of the black Japanese (Atmark). The US unit is the black Atworld. Not sure it's really worth $1100 as it's missing the third inner box and the outer box, but it is worth more than an Atworld.

    I think I gave about $500 for my US system with all 3 inner boxes, but no outer box. Never seen one loose though. The Japanese units (white Atmark) are much easier to find and go for a lot less.

    Well.

    I guess it's worth spending $20 to resell it then.
