Looking for Philips CD-i and Zelda games

[mhsy2a]

Anyone have a CD-i or any of the 3 Zelda games for sale?

I've checked eBay and the few auctions that were up there seemed rather expensive. What's the going prices for these things? Thanks.

I'm really not trying to be rude , but why would someone want to sell it for less than they could get on Ebay ?

Maybe if you hade some good Trade Bait.

Maybe I wasn't clear about this the first time. I haven't done too much research on the rarity/price of these games. I said I checked eBay and on the few listings, the prices seemed high ($30-$40 range). Are these the going prices for the games?

[jonjandran]

Ooops , My bad.

Yes these games do go for between $25-50 each.

It's a shame really because they're not really much fun .

I've got Zelda: Wand Of Gamelon available. It's in great shape and comes with case and instructions. I'd sell for $35+shipping or do a trade if you've got something I want. PM me if interested.

I;ve got Link and the Faces of Evil. I'm looking for a trade, preferably a real nice trade for it.

I have a sealed Link: The Faces Of Evil. Will trade. No sale. Thank you.

Somebody wants the CD-i Zeldas, hey, that's cool! :D

Anyhow, the first two games may indeed be found in the $20-$30 range, but the last one (Zelda's Adventure) is very expensive -- prices like Dracula X: Rondo of Blood sells for.

What are they all like, cartoon style?

Well The Faces of Evil, and Wand of Gamelon games both have what can only be described as "dorky" animation, and music, yet gameplay that is fairly endearing in a gay sort of way.

Seriously though, the games aren't THAT bad. While they are laughable, i've had fun with both "my favorite being Link: The Faces of Evil". There are some good platform/puzzle moments, with animations that just make you go.

If your resolve is fairly low then I wouldn't recommend these games, as both games are a bit oddball in the gameplay department "not your standard formula here". Though if you like oddball solutions to defeating bosses/situations then you should give it a shot. Most bosses have to be beat in a specific manner that most people wouldn't usually think of at first. You just have to keep trying, till you figure it out.

I've never played Zelda's Adventure on cd-i, so no comment.
