Just picked up my first Atari Lynx! Now I have to wait for the games to get here to give it a try.  I picked up Xenophobe, Gauntlet, AvP, and Zaku

Excellent! Good start to the collection too!

Now make sure you get STUN Runner next if you really want to be blown away!

Congratulations, Jagman67!  Those first games you got are also a good way to start off.

I bought this week:
-Donkey Kong Country (CIB) snes
-6 Atari 7800 games, sealed. Realsports Baseball, Super Huey, Touchdown Football, One on One Basketball, Ballblazer, and Winter Games ($27 total).

And for Gameboy I got WWF Superstars (loose) and Chase HQ (loose) for the gameboy color.

I don't even plan on opening the 7800 games, but I thought it was a good enough deal to warrant the purchase, and I didn't have any of them boxed yet, except for the Baseball game.

If you are not going to open the 7800 games be aware that over time the shrink will get tighter, crush the boxes and then stick to them leaving them damaged. Seen this happen to load of sealed Atari games. It is better to just open them.

Yeah I may take off the shrink, or atleast the top of the shrink. Seen too many crushed Lynx boxes in my time.

Picked up another copy of Rampage for IBM PC, complete in dark orange box (my other copy that I had was in a bright yellow box).  Got it for a buck at a yard sale.  Also picked up Project Gotham Racing (Xbox) and my fiancée picked up a PGA Tour game from 2003 or something for Xbox (she doesn't follow golf so the names of the people is no biggie for her).

Bought from a guy at work. He wanted £15 for them all.
I pointed out that there were two copies of Warlords and the others were fairly common.
So he took £10.
I feel a bit bad. But not much!

Not the best of games but it wasn't in my collection so hey ho. Cost me about £20 which is neither good nor bad and as I'm happy with it then I won't lose any sleep lol

I also got Fever Pitch recently - brand new for £15 though I doubt I will ever play it as I have the other football game Sensible Soccer

[WiggyDiggyPoo]

Er a desk lol

£11.33 from ebay inc delivery

As its ex office it actually slides back and forth and has a cable stash, sure to come in handy lol

Yeah I am not a big fan of AOTMP, the idea is great and the graphics are nice but's just too confusing to be enjoyable in large doses.

Fever Pitch is a very different game to Sensible Soccer, more an arcade style game with some crazy features, It's an ok game, probably more suited to people who aren't actually football fans.
