    Default Microvision plus 6 games

    There is a local craigslist lot that is selling 2 Microvision handhelds and some games. One of them doesn't work but apparently the other one is fine. The games are Connect Four, 2 Blockbuster, Baseball, Star Trek Phaser Strike, Vegas Slots and Mindbuster. I'm kinda curious about it because I have never ran into one but I know next to nothing about them other than they were the first cartridge handheld.

    Not very valuable, but fun and interesting. Used ones go for $20 or so on Ebay and games are a few bucks each complete.

    Yea after posting I did a bit more digging and found out they really cheap. The local sale wants waaay more than I am willing to spend. I'm debating on being that asshole that emails them an ebay listing and see if I can pick it up for cheap. I don't really want one that bad though.

    Working units will be harder to find, the screen deteriorates over time. An interesting collectable, I have two with a few games. Gameplay is limited with just the paddle and various "launch" button functions.
