Ultima V: Warriors of Destiny (Apple II)

Ultima V was the first Ultima RPG I ever played and, to this day, remains one of my all time favourite games regardless of genre and/or platform. It also featured some absolutely stunning box art, came packaged with an amazing assortment of goodies, and was an absolutely engrossing RPG.

To grab a complete copy of the game for the Apple II, you could much worse than bid on this Ultima V (Apple II) eBay auction. The game comes complete in its original packaging, and thus includes the (elusive) coin, the map, disks, manual, reference cards, and all sorts of other goodies.

A Vectrex to get you started


Sometimes, it is indeed better to start with the bare basics, avoid spending everything on a single purchase, and slowly working ones way to either an impressive collection or a fine gaming setup. So, this fully working, nicely preserved Vectrex eBay auction might just be for you, if you are interested in sensibly starting by only getting the console with its built-in game and a controller. You'll also be getting a Star Trek overlay, but, well, this shouldn't be of much use for a while.

Space Quest III (MS-DOS)

I love Space Quest III: The Pirates of Pestulon. I just do. I love its many mad deaths, the silly Sierra meta-jokes, the excellent EGA graphics, the playful parser, the clever writing, the sci-fi setting, even many of the puzzles. Also, I do love the box it came in, and I do thus suppose many would be interested in this Space Quest III (MS-DOS) eBay auction.  It's for the 5.25" disk MS-DOS version of the game, and it comes with manual, Sierra catalog, the disks, and three leaflets.

Fresh Homebrew: Moonspire (Commodore 64)

Exploration heavy shooters aren't very common on the Commodore 64 these days, and the freshly released and even more freshly boxed Moonspire is here to fix this horrible problem. It's a pretty huge game sporting 264 screens of clever action and atmospheric graphics spread over six levels, a lovely soundtrack, three weapons, a ton of options, and a very intriguing premise. The game was developed by Dušan Milivojević and Ari "agemixer" Yliaho, and published by RGCD.

A new and sealed Adventure for the Atari 2600

A valiant attempt at evoking the text-based Adventure's spirit on the limited Atari 2600, a pioneering arcade-adventure, the home of the first Easter egg, and a truly classic and definitive game, Atari's Adventure is something every 2600 collector should own. More dedicated collectors on the other hand would probably prefer this essentially new, factory sealed copy of Adventure (Atari 2600) currently being auctioned on eBay.

Intelligent Systems' Enterprise

I love discovering obscure micros on eBay, and, well, the Enterprise 128 is definitely one of my absolute favourite forgotten 8-bits. The playful colors, the built-in joystick, the 128k of RAM, and the impressive audiovisual capabilities made this a very exciting computer, though not as exciting as the Atari STs and Amigas of the time and it sadly flopped. Not being cheaper than the ZX Spectrum didn't help much either...

Anyway. The Enterprise 128 on offer comes in its box with a Hungarian manual, the original power supply, all required cables, one game tape, the Basic cartridge, and the system bus cover. The micro seems to be in good working order.

Oh, and you can bid on a complete, working copy of it via this Devil's Crush (TG16) eBay auction.
