Game Station Arcade and DR. Boy

[chrisballer]

I have been looking for prices on these for awhile, and cannot find anything. I just found them and forgot what I paid for them. I have had them for a very long time. I will attach pictures.

The GameStation is likely worth dick. Yet another Sachen infused pirate system.

Not sure about the Dr. Boy. Looks interesting though.

I've seen those Dr. Boy things before. I thought they were just stupid Tetris LCD game clones.

It's not Sachen. It's Color Dreams.
And given how Color Dreams games seem to have suddenly become valuable, I suppose it could be worth something.

Yes it has 15 Color Dreams/Bunch games on it. This is what made it appeal to me, and why I purchased it long ago.

The great majority of Color Dreams games were made by Sachen and published by Color Dreams here. This system was made by Sachen, who is still operating today in Taiwan.

I am absolutely not going to argue this, because I am no expert. However, I am curious though. I thought Sachen closed down in 2002? I am familiar somewhat with most of the the ColorDreams, Bunch, and AVE games being developed under Sachen. Now you have me curious about this. This system was made by Pelican which is now Performance Designed Products LLC (PDP) who in turn is owned by the private equity firm Patriarch. I could totally be wrong, but what I believe is that this system was made by Pelican that had nothing to do with Sachen or the publisher ColorDreams other than a license agreement to use their games. This system was for sale at many retailers here like Wal-Mart and the like. I did not think Sachen sold systems at U.S retailers? The questions that I still have are one, is Sachen still a company. Two, if they are no more then who owns the rights to their games?

1. They are, if you find the contact info or find someone who has it (I do not), you can order a ghetto complete Sachen set, however all you will get is generic cart labels, generic boxes and maybe a photocopy or two as manuals. You had to get in on it no later than 2004 to really get the full monty.

2. They whore out their titles like a motherfucker. How the licensing works (if there is licensing at all...), I couldn't tell you.

Thank you for the info. I did not go after the Sachen games back in the day. Although, I know a few people that thought they should be part of a complete collection.
