Title: WTT // have: PCE games - seek: Atari ST stuff
Post by: Amadeusama on July 05, 2012, 06:52:36 AM

Hi there!

I'm looking for stuff for the Atari ST, and figured I'd trade some PCE games for it.

Primarily, I'd be interested in books on topics around programming, or in users' magazines for the ST.
Preferrably in English or German, but even French will do. (As long as it's not translations of German originals.)

Games I'd be interested in least of all.
If games alright, then please only in English or German. Only complete in box, and no budget label re-releases, please.
Preferred genres (in that ranking): wargames, strategy games, rpgs, adventures, puzzles, platformers, ....., shoot-'em ups.

Here is what you might want to choose from:
http://www.pcedaisakusen.net/1/34/475/show-collection--0-0-100-name-asc-0.htm

Only one of these games is loose (Shubibinman). All others in the box with manual. Generally in good used condition. Not all CD-ROM games still have the spinecrd, though.
Let me know what you have, and what you'd be interested in, then I'll make photos of these games for you.

My location: Vienna, Austria.
If we trade, everyone pays the shipping cost of what he gives up.

Thanks!

well, I have a shit-tonne of Amiga stuff... But no wonder you're selling your PCE stuff, if that's all you have, you're missing out on some stunners -  cheap too ;)

I'm not "selling" anything. Nor am I intending to give up the PCE.
I just found out, that I guess I'm a home computer kind of guy after all, no use denying that. As in: not a consoles kind of guy.

As wonderful as the PCE might be (and judging it at what it is, and for when it was I think it is the most awesome thing there ever was!), it is a very "passive" hobby. I lack the active messing with things that programming on  home computer gives me.

The collection linked above was started with the intention to collect the games completely in chronological sequence of original publication. Which was a stooooopid approach, because I had to buy titles I kew to suck, often on short notice, as I wanted to "get on with it" and hence knowingly overpaying some of these games even.

Suffice it to say, I abandoned that approach after the first 40 games ... :)

Amiga is just not non-conformistic enough for me. I mean that's like going Nintendo, in a way ... ;)

If you like home computers, you should consider getting into MSX or x68000.

Or programming for the PC Engine! http://www.obeybrew.com/index.php?title=A_Crash_Course_In_HuC_-_Part_1

And the Amiga was way better than the ST ;)

I actually recently threw out a big box of manuals for Amiga stuff.  Shame.
