VIDEO GAME Board Games.

[den68]

Yesterday I picked up Pac-Man and Ms Pac-Man at a thrift store. I've now got five of these board games.

PAC-MAN
MS PAC-MAN
DONKEY KONG
CENTIPEDE
TETRIS

Joe's article in Tip's and Trick's on this subject included:

PITFALL
ZAXXON
POPEYE
MARIO BROTHERS
TURBO
FROGGER

I might have forgot some. I've also got a small travel game version of:

GAUNTLET

It's got a small fold out board and the dice are in a plastic case you click to roll them.

So what are some others? Any not based on arcade games? Any one else collect them?

[Arcade Antics]

There are board game versions of Dragon's Lair and Tetris too, some others I think. I think there's a Zelda game, and there's also a bad Donkey Kong POG board game thing.

[Raedon]

Probably not based on the VG but TMNT and NES go hand in hand.

Tamogachi has a board game. seen it at goodwill.

I remember I had the Pac-Man one as a kid. You had to shove marbles up Pac-Man's ass! Well actually he was "eating" them, but they did go up his keister... I miss that game...

i have Pac Man, wish i had more.

My friend as all the ones you listed. Won't sell though so don't ask.

[congobongo]

I have two pac-man board-games; the marble one and the uno-like card game.

[DDCecil]

I have an import Super Zaxxon board game that's pretty cool. I looked in the little flyer that it came with and it seems EVERY Famicom Namco game got a board game!

[Arqueologia_Digital]

Ouch!, here in my country are impossible to find, so i never saw one of this games, if anyone can post any pic of the board and pieces it will be great. Thanks...

Here's a link that shows some really rare board games that I've never seen before, including Ghosts N Goblins, Commando, and Gradius:

Check out the board from the Crazy Climber one!

[digitalpress]

That Crazy Climber game looks SMOKIN! I've never seen that before!

Here's a stack from my collection:

[Charlie]

I've got a couple. Pac-Man, Zaxxon, Super Mario, Pac-Man Card game, and Donkey Kong. Plus if you count Magic: The Gathering style games, I have a sealed starter box and booster box of Mortal Kombat cards.

Edited: I also have Q*Bert and Street Fighter 2.

This is a friend of mine..Dan..

Check out his about me page..

http://members.ebay.com/aboutme/bayniac%21/

He collects (Video Game) board games..

[den68]

I've found a few more since I first posted a couple months ago. Zaxxon, Super Mario Brothers and Popeye.

[Sniderman]

Oooohhhh...I'd KILL for a Dragon's Lair boardgame. Never knew such a beast existed. If someone's got one for sale/trade, you gots a buyer!

[Charlesaway]

And here I thought I was one of a very few with this particular sub interest.

Ive got Tetris, Ms. Pac-Man, Zaxxon, Berzerk, and yes, Dragon's Lair. I've been thinking of doing a web site solely on video game related board games for months now. I keep trying to get my wife to help me out with it, but she doesen't have the bug like I do.

Something with complete scans of everything, rules, the board, the works. And reviews, that kind of thing. Anyone up for it?


Also if anyone is interested, I do have an extra Zaxxon for trade. Seems complete except for one piece (a barrel I believe?)

[scooterb23]

I have Q*Bert and the Donkey Kong card game got both of those at Cinciclassic...

I've been meaning to write an article about these games for my webpage, but I haven't found any more...and DP's Tips & Tricks article came out at the same time I was trying to research mine, so I shelved it (for now )

And I'm still trying to find out if I ever really had a board game version of the video game Blue Print. I can remember playing it, I remember buying it, heck I remember the board a little bit too (kind of reminiscent of that Crazy Climber game actually)...and yet, I've found no proof that it ever existed!!!
:/

[Sniderman]

Scoot! Where did you get a Q*Bert board game? At Cinci, you say?

[carnage6]

I am a huge Dragon's Lair fan so believe me when I tell you the board game version is very bad. The board doesn't even work like it is supposed to and is just plain confusing. It actually makes a better card game than a board game.
I think I even have an extra one though I'm not sure if it is complete and it would take a good offer for me to part with.

Yeah, there was this really creepy guy there...he wanted to play the Full Monty or something like that, really weird I'm telling ya...So I opened my wallet...gave him my singles (he was entertaining after all) and got the hell away. :P

Still haven't had a chance to play the thing :/
