Games or Grails that you wish you could just find one to play!
While I consider my collection pretty good, I'm always looking to play that rare grail I don't have or a game I put a lot of time on as a kid that I just can't seem to find to either buy or play.
What Grails, games you've played a lot as a kid, or ones that you are just curious about that you have been looking for a long time just to play that you just can't seem to find, period?
Here's my list :
EDOT- While I own the upright, I have fond memories of playing the environmental version of the game. On top of that, this is one of my favorite games, period, so I have been seeking out an EDOT just to play one, anywhere. No dice. And I'd like to own one, perhaps someday, but playing one for an hour or so would certainly be nice.
Dragon's Lair in a dedicated cab- Another game that I played extensively as a kid, so much that my obsession took every penny of my allowance and I used to drive 40 miles round trip (when I was 16) just to play it. I haven't seen a dedicated DL in person in about 20 years, as the last time I saw one was at the Florida State Fair sometime around 1990. I was so obsessed with this game that I had a detailed notebook of moves and could kill the dragon with my first Dirk in most games. And sorry, the blu-ray is nice, but we all know there's nothing like the feeling of playing the real thing.
Paperboy- Another game I haven't seen in about 20 years.. nothing like playing one with the original handlebar controls. I played the crap out of this one on my nintendo.
720- saw an original cab recently, not for sale, and not working. Would love to take this game for a "spin" again
Mach 3 and the original Gauntlet- I know a collector that is close that just bought an original Gauntlet and has a couple of Mach 3 projects, so this is just a matter of time
Todd, plan on spending hours playing that gauntlet when I get down there
I'm curious to see what's on others list, if I didn't already own a reactor, quantum and dedicated Major Havoc they would certainly be on my list... I just go lucky!
