River Raid by Activision is among my favourite Atari 2600 (a.k.a. Atari VCS) games and one of the first shoot-'em-ups in the contemporary sense. What's more, it comes in a beautiful box, you can own (complete with the cartridge and everything) via this River Raid eBay auction. Seller ships worldwide. Oh, and did I mention this is a sealed box?

Nice find!
ReplyDeleteRiver Raid for our C64 was a family favourite. Great game.
Absolutely. And laways thought the re-fueling mechanic was to interesting to be forgotten...
DeleteDefinitely one of my favorite Atari 2600 games. Did you check out his other items Gnome? Lots of good stuff back there - Vanguard, Amazon, Clowns, Yars Revenge with the comic book. Hey i think this is the same guy that sold me my sealed Telengard a while back - or at least he was also in Caracas.
ReplyDeleteHey, you are right. Quite the seller this one... Mind you, Caracas is a pretty huge metropolis :)
Deleteyeah could have been a different guy, but he also had a nice miscellaneous stash of old sealed games. Either way the prices don't look bad so I think I'll pick up 1 or 2. Maybe even that River Raid.
ReplyDeleteOnly problem is I was never a guy that cared about leaving games/toys sealed to preserve value. If I get it I'm tearing it open. Hey it'll still be complete in box that's still pretty good
Same thing here. Only sealed games around my collection are Atari Lynx doubles.
DeleteMind you, I think I'll be spending my next retro money on a) a ZX81 and b) some retro pen and paper RPG stuff... Ooooh, Ravenloft...
