Manopac's Lair

[manopac]

Hi !

didn't introduce myself yet, so I just take the opportunity to do this with showing of some of my collection ...

My name is Mark, 30, from Vienna/Austria, I started playing around 1982 with a philips videopac (aka Odyssey2), after various homecomputers (Atari 800XL, C64, Amiga 500) I mostly stopped playing until I discovered a G7000 on a local fleamarket about 5 years ago and started collecting classic systems (Videopac, Atari), later I got a dreamcast and since that moment I also got into recent consoles and playing again :smt023
At the moment I am mostly collecting Dreamcast and Saturn stuff ...

anyway, here's parts of my collection (I moved recently, so most stuff is still in boxes around somewhere ...)

Wow, nice collection man

[AntiPasta]

wow, not bad at all :smt040

btw, you look like the local Videopac expert so I'll ask you - a few weeks ago I met someone who claimed to have the only Spiderman Videopac cartridge in existence - know anything about that?

if the guys name is Bas Kornalijnslijper then he told you the truth, if not, then there's more than one ...

yeah that was his name indeed... I actually once had a row with him via e-mail over a messed-up Ebay transaction :axe:

Thats a great collection. Just love that surf'n play unit. By the way, how much did you pay for your Flinstones white label? I was after one of them from a German mail order place but the sods would never write back :smt011

Damn nice collection, that surf&play setup is just wow :smt023

I paid 20 euros ... on ebay :smt023
mail orders who list it don't have it ... they just put it on their preorder lists and never took it off ...

Great collection Manopac!!!

I like the way you say you have a complete Videopac collection, including all protos etc., then say yeah this guy does own the ONLY spiderman.... meaning you still need 1 more game!!! LOL only messing with you ;) Its a very impressive collection.

When my site is back up and running after the redesign, I was thinking of having a section for collections (its a Saturn site). As you have a complete PAL collection, would it be OK to put a picture of your collection in the section? The one of that with the complete DC in front would be good :)

[wombat]

nice collection, especially the dreamcast section :smt040
but what can you do with the windows CE disc? (is it for running on the dreamcast?, or 'just' the devlopment suite)

I guess you got me wrong here ... I have a complete collection of RELEASED carts, and very few protos (3), but of course NOT all protos which have been found for the system !!!! (there's a lot and most are one of a kind ...)

its the Win-CE dev-suite for PC, not a GD ! (only of use in conjuction with the dev-kit)

[Paulo]

Damn nice collection you got there! :smt023

[Funk Buddy]

I agree, very nice indeed!

Well, in my opinion still a very nice collection... and that's just looking at videopac! Would be great if you had ALL games though, eh? ;) The rest added to it... superb collection, congratulations on that!

Being new to the site, its good to see someone with with old Intellivision stuff. I had to sell off my collection a year ago. I am kicking myself now:)
-when I was growning up, here in Canada, all we had were the 2- Atari or Intellivision. My parents bought the Intel. How far we have come........

[bigsexyolli]
