Ian at What's On 2nd hooked it up with a TurboGrafx16 and a Colecovision. I've wanted both of these systems for a while, especially the TG16. I actually have wanted a TG16 since I was a kid, so it's nice to finally have it now that I'm practically a senior citizen. The two TG16 games are Bonk's Adventure and Keith Courage in Alpha Zone. For the Colecovision he tossed in the timeless classic, Donkey Kong. Also at the bottom below the Colecovision is the module that allows you to play 2600 games on the Colecovision. Not pictured are all of the hookups for the systems, as well as two TG16 controllers and a multi-tap. In the center is a factory sealed Space Armada(Space Invaders clone) for the Intellivision. The price on this lot was to die for! Unfortunately, repairs are STILL ongoing in my slumber cave and I don't have access to my retro system tv to break them in. Life in America is so tough sometimes.
And to round things out, another pickup that I can't try out until the repairs are done, WCW World Championship Wrestling for the NES! Hmm, World Championship Wrestling: World Championship Wrestling...perhaps the most redundant title of all time.
I've never played it before, but those old school rasslin games have such a charm that I'm sure it was worth the money. Besides, not many games allow you to live vicariously through the Freebird Michael Hayes!
I may not be able to get much loot in the coming week, as a weekend full of work looms in the distance. Still, you never know when the bug will crawl up your rear and you'll go out searching. Until next time....
