One big box of Atari XE GS gaming

The Atari XE Video Game System (a.k.a. Atari XEGS) is a console/home-computer hybrid that was compatible with Atari's 8-bit micro range and a direct,consolized descendant of the Atari 65XE. It was also a pretty versatile system that could be sold as either a stand-alone console or, in its deluxe version, as a complete, gaming-focused computer. It is said, keyboard empowered deluxe version you can grab via this Atari XEGS eBay auction.

What's more, the system comes in its original, complete box; a box from which it has allegedly never been removed. Yes, it's an essentially new Atari XEGS, complete with two games, all the manuals, main console, keyboard, joystick and light-gun. All that's missing is the Missile Command cartridge.

Space Quest V: The Next Mutation (MS-DOS)

Released in 1993, Space Quest V by Sierra was the last great adventure game starring Roger Wilco and, nowadays, a gracefully aged and good looking point-and-clicker.

It's the complete boxed, MS-DOS, floppy disc version of the game and the seller is shipping worldwide.

Boxed NEC PC-FX

NEC's PC-FX is a 32-bit, CD-based console that was released exclusively in Japan back in 1994. Despite being a 2D powerhouse, it was quite expensive and lacked out-of-the-box 3D acceleration; it thusly never really sold that well. The machine only got 62 games released for it and, to this day, remains the only console to look like a (beautiful) PC. Oh, and you can always grab this brilliantly preserved, complete and boxed NEC PC-FX via eBay. Seller ships worldwide.

Wonderland by Magnetic Scrolls (Amiga)

Wonderland was released by Magnetic Scrolls back in 1990 and was a brave attempt to re-imagine and save commercial interactive fiction. Not only was it a sprawling adventure sporting excellent graphics and more than a few animations that came in a big box filled with goodies, but it also featured an innovative, windows-based, point-and-clickable interface which minimized typing and made the gameplay just flow.

UK residents that have missed or misplaced said classic text adventure can still grab a complete boxed version of Wonderland for the Amiga via eBay. It comes with the manual, map, posters and all the discs you'd expect it to.

Philips CD-i

PC-Engine Shuttle

NEC was never afraid to come up with strange console designs and the spaceship-like Shuttle version of its successful PC-Engine is definitely, well, weird.

One shiny, black Commodore CDTV

The Commodore CDTV is one of history's sleekest failed pieces of hardware. Essentially a keyboardless Amiga 500 with a CD-ROM drive in a black set-top box that was ridiculously priced and a bit under-powered for 1991. As for its software and games, well, what it mainly got were enhanced versions of existing games and those multimedia/edutainment things everyone was producing back in the early '90s. Oh, and it came with a truly intriguing controller.

Interestingly, though not extremely expensive, the CDTV doesn't appear very often on eBay and you'll be happy to know there's a Commodore CDTV auction waiting for your bids right now. You'll get the console, the remote/controller, the CD tray and the required cables.

[Update: it's not the ST, it's the Amiga version]

The 1993 Space Hulk for MS-DOS

The Casio PV-1000 Console

Casio's obscure first video game console, the Casio PV-1000, was released in Japan in 1983 and, as you may have noticed, failed to make an impression. Built around the Z80A processor and sporting a tiny 2KB of RAM, it was underpowered when compared to the NES and only managed to have 15 games published for it.
