Midwinter (Amiga)

Midwinter was the first open world game I ever played, and, frankly, one of the few I still absolutely love. Not only did the game feature a huge, snowy, 3D island to explore with the help of skis, buggies, hang-gliders and even cable cars, it also managed to effortlessly support a unique blend of adventure and strategy gameplay elements. I'm pretty sure it was the first game to allow for first person sniping too.

Anyway. The game's one of Microprose's gems, but you probably knew that already, so here's a lovely copy of Midwinter for the Amiga that's made itself available on eBay. It comes in its original box with manual, map, 3.5" disk and technical supplement. Seller ships worldwide.

128k of Commodore 128

Yoshi's Story Demo Cartridge (N64)

A demo cartridge of the International Version of Yoshi's Story labeled as "Not For Resale" is a rare Nintendo 64 collectible. Something that could never be cheap, yet also a retro rarity people have already started bidding on over at this Yoshi's Story Demo (N64) eBay auction.

The cartridge is in excellent condition, comes with its acrylic cart protector and, though only available for US bidders, free shipping.

Nintendo Entertainment System Control Deck

There are few machines as iconic and definitive as Nintendo's all conquering 8-bit console, and even fewer that managed to spawn this many classic games, genres and series. Then again you know this already; even if you don't own a NES, in which case this boxed Nintendo Entertainment System Control Deck eBay auction should be of interest.

The console has been tested and is working, seems to have been finely preserved and comes in its Control Deck box. A couple of controllers, the RF unit, cables and the power supply are included. Seller ships worldwide.

Todd's Adventures in Slime World (Atari Lynx)

Do I need another copy of the excellent, technical impressive and wildly innovative Slime World for my Atari Lynx collection? Probably yes, but that'd be my third copy and thus a clear overreaction. You on the other hand --and by you I do mean people without access to the game-- simply need to go and bid on this Todd's Adventures in Slime World (Atari Lynx) eBay auction.

The game comes complete in its original box with cartridge, manual and warranty card. Seller ships worldwide.

Discworld Noir (PC CD-ROM)

It's not only that Discworld Noir dared to launch in 1999 during the dark times of the Great Adventure Gaming Crisis; it's that Discworld Noir is the best adventure ever set on Terry Pratchett's Discworld. It is innovative, funny, excellently designed and impressively written and thus a noir-fantasy game I deeply love.

Handily then, this mouth-watering Discwolrd Noir (PC) eBay auction has just gone live and is incredibly tempting even for my Discworld-owning self. You'll be bidding on the original 1999 PC-CD version of the game complete in its factory sealed big box.

The Hitchhicker's Guide to the Galaxy (C64)

Co-authored by Steve Meretzky and Douglas Adams, Infocom's The Hitchhickers Guide to the Galaxy is one of the funniest games ever and a unique, highly intriguing and downright brutal text adventure. It might not be the pinnacle of interactive fiction design, mind you, but THHGTTG is filled with outrageous ideas, imaginative puzzles and tons of laugh-out-loud moments.

What's more, a boxed and rather rare Commodore 64 5.25" disk version of the game has been put up for sale via this The Hitchhickers Guide to the Galaxy (C64) eBay auction. The game comes complete in its box with everything it was originally packed with, including of course the bit of fluff, the peril sensitive glasses and the microscopic space fleet.

Zaxxon Mini Tabletop Arcade

Back in 1982 this Coleco/Sega produced mini arcade must have seemed like a marvel of technology, and, having given it a try a few years ago, I must admit it holds up pretty well today too. And in case you are wondering, this is actually a Zaxxon Mini Tabletop Arcade that's been put for auction on eBay, seems to be working just fine, is in good cosmetic condition and only lacks its battery cover. 

Seller ships to the Americas, Europe, Asia and Australia.

A very rare Final Fight 2 SNES cartridge

Collectors looking for a really rare game to add to their PAL SNES collections should definitely have a look at this eBay auction for a complete, boxed copy of Capcom's Final Fight 2 for the Super Nintendo. It is an essentially new and unused cartridge, and also a PAL Italian yellow box release. It is apparently incredibly rare too.
