Code Monkey

I drive a car with a roof line below most pickup truck wheel wells, I stare death in the face daily.

I'm not really looking for these at the moment but I wanted to compile a list since it's getting pretty close to a full set. Do any of these surprise you, considering what I don't need? This is also licensed only to make it much easier to manage.

I'm way too old for this thread. I came in here expecting to hear about Playaround games on the Atari 2600 and you guys are talking about Grand Theft Auto.

I guess I was a young teenager when I played Doom, Mortal Kombat and Phantasmagoria.

I can't find it on the Canada website.

Every licensed NES cartridge has that indent. Press hard enough on the label and it'll look like that.

I have these. The blank one is Yar's Revenge.

Does Spielberg still have these? Has it been confirmed that these actually exist, or are they just some sort of urban legend?

I'm reading his book Once Upon Atari, here is a photo of him handing over the cartridge. The third paragraph down explains the quick change he made to the title screen.

Far be it for me to step up in Code Monkey's defense ( ), but the two games he listed are on the page Seth linked, and I didn't see anything that said they weren't eligible. By Code Monkey Logictm they should qualify, no? 

• The Incident
• Battle Kid (I haven't played the sequel yet)
• 8 Bit X-Mas 2013
• Legend Of Link
• Deadpool

I'm amazed nobody has mentioned The Incident yet, though I guess it's not really a technical marvel in any way, it was just really fun. Battle Kid was a good game but it was one of the most frustrating experiences of my life, I nreally snapped my controller in half on multiple occassions. Legend Of Link and Deadpool both use assets from other games but I'm willing to bet some of the other games mentioned also use routines and sub-routines borrowed from other games for collision / movement / sprite management.

Give it to the next person in line. I've literally bought everything I didn't already have from my local game store though I still keep going back for some reason.

I'm choosing rare because I have everything I want to play.

• Nintendo World Championships (grey)
• Nintendo World Championships (gold)
• Nintendo Campus Challenge
• Mah-Jong
• Air Raid

The last 2 would be complete, there are only single digit quantities of each known to exist.

Honourable mention to the 2 Atari cartridges, E.T. and Raiders Of The Lost Ark which Howard Scott Warshaw handed to Steven Spielberg with Spielberg's name on the title screen in place of the copyright. When you mention something unobtainable, this is the very definition.

Way to be hyperbolic about it. I'm saying most customers don't care. They may be annoyed, but it's not this great barrier to entry you're making it out to be. It's a simple x.

Yeah, I'm sure they're going to miss your one decision to not visit because you can't move your mouse three inches. 

I'm not sure I want to involve everyone else here in participating in this debate but there are some aspects here that I find interesting in regards to socioeconomics.

Whether or not anyone else cares about it has no bearing on whether I care about it. The barrier of entry is objectively higher here, how much higher is irrelevant, my threshold of acceptance is 0.001. A properly coded website should use modals with dismiss properties onblur, this is an inexcusable offence.

Your second comment is that I shouldn't try if my attempt will not make a large difference. So according to your logic, nobody in a democracy should vote because single votes don't mean anything. I make my choices because I have the option of making a choice, not in pursuit of any end goal. I'm not asking you to protest with me, I'm simply making my choice because I can. You should make your choice and respect me making my choice, there's room for both of us.

Do you only develop websites and not actually visit any? This is like half of the web now.

Is it annoying? Yes. Are customers suddenly not using websites because of it? No, they click the x and move on.

Your logic for why it's acceptable is because lots of people do it. That doesn't make sense, can I murder someone if lots of other people do it?

My solution: make their site analytics suffer from my choices

Your solution: do nothing

Are you really arguing over clicking an "x"? Raising the barrier of entry? April Fool's was 20 days ago. This is nuts!

Hey, I wanted to watch the Heat game, but you know, I disagree with having to have my ticket scanned on the way in. I'd like to go to the museum, but you need to stop me and charge me for admission? Pass.

I have to watch your car in the intro to your videos? PASS.

Welcome to ASD.

You mean like a greeter you see at tons of stores?

Say, "No, thank you," (equivalent of clicking on the x) and carry on. It's not that hard.

No, a greeter would be the equivalent of a modal with a dismiss property where it disappears when unfocused. This is an indismissable modal that requires direct interaction. That's the equivalent of stopping your attempt to go into the store and instead giving your direct attention to the greeter, then interacting specifically with them until they allow you to pass. There is no option to ignore.

To anyone else here that develops websites, this is a prime example of exactly what not to do.

Here ya go buddy:

If you want customers to use your product, don't raise the barrier of entry. I'll pass.

Imagine trying to walk into a store and someone steps out in front of you and won't let you by until you interact with them.

I tried using their website but there's a newsletter box covering half the page and nothing I click on works.

I think I got mine from these very forums for $25 each.

It seems you missed the post where he said "PM me what you want": 

 

I did see that. But logically, if he's making them, I'll just wait until they're in stock. At no point did he mention they were only made to order.

I started a post awhile back to see if there was interest in getting some boxes needed from him. It turned out he had some stock left and the rest is history.

Some people don't read posts thoroughly.

I saw that post and subsequently kept watching his store to see if he made any. They never showed up.

My girlfriend was scrolling through local sales and found some sealed NES games for sale. I don't really collect sealed but I needed a few of them and they were still relatively cheap so I agreed to buy them but I couldn't go pick them up until the following day. The next morning the seller messaged my girlfriend and told her The Bandit Kings Of Ancient China was no longer included in the lot as someone else bought it but she can replace it with a copy of Batman Returns. If you collect NES games, you know there is a major difference in rarity between these two titles and I was so mad about that I almost cancelled the deal.

Fast forward about 5-7 years and the Batman game is now worth double the other game because it's all ex comic book collectors getting into sealed games. That sealed Batman is one of the most valuable games I own.

Games included in the lot:

• L'Empereur (cellophane removed, never opened)
• Kings Of The Beach (sealed R seal, Wata has never graded one)
• Batman Returns (sealed, graded 9.4)
• Advanced Dungeons And Dragons: Pool Of Radiance (sealed, graded 9.2)
• Target: Renegade (sealed)
• Ghostbusters II (sealed, graded 9.2)
• Eliminator Boat Duel (sealed)
• Pipe Dream (sealed)

Total price on the lot was $600 CAD which wasn't that great of a deal at the time. I know the other local guy that bought Bandit Kings Of Ancient China and he immediately sold it for a profit. I also know he knew I had bought the lot because the seller told me he was quite convincing with prying that one game from the lot even though it was sold.

I got them from fsped09.  He had some left and was offering them.

How? They're not listed on his site.

I skipped this one but I'd be interested if it's surprisingly good.

I had not posted these.  I got the boxes for these two games.  Love how they look...

Where from?
