Hey All!

Looking for my first game. I live in Delaware, so anything within 1-200 miles would be okay. Having trouble with craigslist. I am SUPPOSED to get a pac-man on Sunday, but the guy seems to be flaking out. Figured I would come here for help. I already have another post looking for Warlords. I'm basically looking for anything Atari, (centipede, missile command, asteroids deluxe) Also would not mind a pac man. I'm hoping to get some games I am familiar with first like a classic and then maybe a Street Fighter 2. Then I want to start restoring. Baby Steps I guess... Let me know if you can help!

Thanks!

MechaGregor,

Just starting out?....best help to provide, I think, at this point is to tell you to not over pay.  The games you listed (centipede and asteroids deluxe atleast, not so much the Missile Command) are common and plentiful.  You'll find 'em, just be patient.  Don't overpay.  There are a lot of sellers out there looking for suckers.

Good luck!

You live in delaware? 
This is a "area sensative" thing where people will pay for whats avail.
In my area , missle command is non existant on the market .
So if somebody is selling one for $600... ill be paying $600
I use to hang out in DE on the weekends so i know two things.. they have some cool clubs and better food than my area of connecticut .

If you are willing to travel to CT>. i have a dozen games i can help you out with .
