Atari 800xl

Hey all-

I am looking to get rid of my Atari 800xl collection. Seems like some loser here would be into retrocomputers/ videogames. I have two big tubs of stuff- cartridges, disks, wires, books, etc.

I can provide details if someone is iterested.

We are talking 100s of retro games here, Disk, Cartridges AND cassettes! Including such classics as Wizard's Crown and Eternal Dagger.

I just heard Kelly Ripa say, "no one knows what those are, Reej!"

Re: Atari 800xl

Sold the lot for $75, in a random grocery store parking lot meet-up off craigslist.

Now what game should I buy with the loot? I need to spend it quick before the wife buys something stupid like food for the children.

I have been eyeing Earth Reborn. Seems like an awesome game, just not sure if it would get played.

I play a lot of Command and Colors ancients against my neighbor. Are getting the expansions worth it? Seems like you mostly just get more blocks in different colors.

Re: Atari 800xl

First, Matt wrote about C&C expansions and it really seems like the answer is a resounding NO.

OK, I'm going to do you a big favor here, because I was planning on keeping this little gem to myself:
www.ebay.com/itm/Heroscape-MASSIVE-terrain-lot-approximately-RotV-x5-/140811018175?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item20c8fd9fbf

That's enough terrain to play Heroscape forever. Then after that, pick up whatever you can get cheap, like ROTV fogures (the base set) and SOTM (the second base set) worth of figures.

~I WARN YOU NOW~ Heroscape is worse than crack. You will have the unbelievable desire to BUY THEM ALL. Do not. Not all figures are worth having, to be honest.


If you don't want Heroscape (or already own it) then you may want to consider getting any game in the top tier here:

I would recommend highly these:
Ascending Empires
King of Tokyo
Incursion

There's others, but those are what I'd buy if I had 75$ to burn.
