Celebrity game collectors??

[demogo]

The dust jackets on Ready Player One and Armada say the author, Ernest Cline, "has a large collection of classic video games".

Ready Player One was a really fun read, especially when I actually have a lot of the games mentioned in the story.

And the movie will be out in less than a year.

Huh really? I forgot about this. $250 will get me a decent non-working project from coinopwarehouse!

Yeah, it's only one PDF scan away from becoming a 25 cent thrift store book. Archive.org is a wonderful thing.

Except he talks about "peeling" sideart on Pacman in that book. Every collector worth their salt knows that Pacman sideart was stenciled. Pshhh, what a newb.

Find me a pacman with "peeling" sideart and I won't peel back your scalp with my witty retorts.

Sold restored games to lots of celebrities over the years. Most famous were Eminem, Mary J Blige, Shaq. And those three were very generous with me.

It does pay to network and treat each sale as if it's to a family member.

Does that mean that this damned thing will finally sell so I won't have to look at it anymore?

No danger of that link going bad anytime soon. This listing has been on craigslist for at least three years.

i just wanted to chime in with news that i finally obtained one of this books! sure they sell for $200-300 and higher, but i managed to purchase one for the low low price of $100

insanity i tell ya!

If anyone really wants to give me $100 for my copy of this book, I will be at the Allentown Pinball Festival this Saturday morning, 5/6. I have photos I can provide. The $100 will cover an Asteroids I'm picking up later that day for my LL conversion.

Walter Payton owned a Ms Pac Man cocktail. His son Jarrett has it now which is pretty cool.

You've all seen me in adult films, though I'd prefer to remain anonymous.

You're the generic guy in the background watching, right?

DJ Pauly D of Jersey Shore has these. SF2 looks like it could use a capkit and is running what looks to be a SF2CE board though the artwork is SF2 and doesn't appear to have sideart. His KI is in a Golden Tee cab as well with some custom KI artwork on the front. Since he's into fighting games I wonder how good he is at SF2?

Funny you mention Pauly D, he was walking 5 feet in front of me in Times Square today, like a normal dude. The crowd reactions were the best.

Saw that episode, did not figure him to be a gamer. Thought that was really cool. No LCD's either and someone with his money could easily blow 3 grand on those eBay/Craigs List specials. Wouldn't surprise me if he was on this forum.
