Catterick Posted May 2, 2006 Posted May 2, 2006 Does anybody here collect the old Nintendo Game & Watch series? Ive just come back from a flea market, with a boxed, 'Vermin' including instructions, excellent quality! I was wondering if anyone knows how much it will be worth. It would be interesting to know if anyone else collects them. Theres 60 in total and they are well cool!
blender Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 yeah collectable. Hope they re-release a compliation for the ds. wasn't that what is was designed foR!
Kurtle Squad Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 I bought Fire a while back off eBay, it isn't in that good condition and got it for around £15 i think. Check eBay for the prices of Vermin of the quality of yours to find out how much it's worth It all depends on rarity & quality.
moorek Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 Vermin is one of the rarest G&W, from a flea market i assume you paid very little, you've prob made a big profit.
Kurtle Squad Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 yeah...I can't even find it on eBay!!! You've just 'won' LOADS if it's it amazing condition I would say. Just check out the great quality G&Ws already on eBay here
Catterick Posted May 5, 2006 Author Posted May 5, 2006 Wow, been researching before i put it up for sale. A mint condition 'Vermin' once went for 700 U.S dollars in 2004! Mine, although it was on a flea market, it was more of a collectables store so cost £35, i could tell it must be worth something as the box was immaculate to say it was from 1980! Just working out my ebay strategy now!
Jamba Posted May 5, 2006 Posted May 5, 2006 Got my brother the Mario Bros. dual screen one a few xmases ago. Cost me about £30 which I thought was quite a good deal.
Tellyn Posted May 6, 2006 Posted May 6, 2006 I wonder if the Game and Watch series will be downloadable for the Virtual Console...
faz99 Posted May 6, 2006 Posted May 6, 2006 I remember this site showing the rarity of them all, but i can't find it. It was some dude that collects them.
spirited away Posted May 6, 2006 Posted May 6, 2006 I wonder if the Game and Watch series will be downloadable for the Virtual Console... heh, Your obsessed with the VC, wait 3 days mate.:p
Tellyn Posted May 6, 2006 Posted May 6, 2006 I can't help it! I want the Virtual Console SO badly! I wonder about the Phillips CD-I Zelda games.... EGAD! The Virtual Boy too!
AshMat Posted May 6, 2006 Posted May 6, 2006 My dad does, the rarest are: The special edition one, about 5 made or something, just for a competition. Rarest series are the crystal ones
spirited away Posted May 6, 2006 Posted May 6, 2006 I I wonder about the Phillips CD-I Zelda games! You've got to be joking, awful games :shock:
Tellyn Posted May 7, 2006 Posted May 7, 2006 So what? They are still Zelda, Nintendo has the rights to them, not Phillips.
Catterick Posted May 8, 2006 Author Posted May 8, 2006 Great news! Its only been on ebay 1 day and its up to £95 with 9 days to go!! if anyone interested, i'll send you a link to the page!
Catterick Posted May 15, 2006 Author Posted May 15, 2006 UPDATE: Its up to £142 and finishes on WEDNESDAY night!
Tellyn Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 Awesome, but really you should have kept it to let the price increase when they are uber-rare in a couple more years.
