Would that be a Sears Pinball Breakaway or Atari Video Pinball? (They're the same thing, just different names and, IIRC, cases.) I'm happy to say I have all my original stuff, console and computer, too. Well, I've actually misplaced a couple computer games, but I'm sure they're around somewhere. Just got to find the right box. >My originals mean a lot to me, for example I picked up complete mint in box >Montezuma's Revenge for 2600 but I'd never sell my cart only, peeling label >original :) That's a shame, because I still don't have Montezuma's Revenge. 8) > Yeah I DID toss the boxes for most of my original 2600 games :( My >mother actually had them stored, I cleaned up one day and tossed them. SHE told me >that was not smart, she heard games were worth more with original boxes (this >was a LONG time ago, hehe, if you're all going to start guessing my age again >I still won't tell ;)) Talk about the opposite of "Mom threw it away"!!! Tsk, tsk. You should listen to your mother, you know. 8) Luckily, I come from a family of packrats, so hanging on to all my 2600 boxes (games, system, and even an extra joystick, I think) wasn't a problem. -- Lee K.
