I have seen games at sales, but GAME PARTS in priority mail boxes the way most collectors seem to store them. Never seen that before.
 
The suspense is killing me. Spill it already!
Oh and I call dibs on any NOS artwork you don't want :)
 
So, short story was that he was a collector that lived in Freemont a long time ago with lots of games. He sold all but one pinball when he moved up here to Reno, but for whatever reason kept these with him. I got a notification that a CL ad with "arcade" was posted, so I jumped in my car and off I went. I came back with all this:

Berzerk board game (Will go great with my Pole Position one!)
Asterix Kit
Taito F3 system with Puzzle Bobble 2
Bomber Man Dyna Blaster
Clay Cowgill Multi-JAMMA kit with 4 cards and a Capcom-JAMMA adapter, all new
Yie Ar Kung Fu kit
4 Unknown Williams boards?
Karate Champ
Bump N Jump

All this for $80, I think I came out alright ;)

Cool score, the Asterix looks interesting, what's the game play like on that one?

Well, unfortunately that happens to be one out of 2 boards that dont work. Asterix boots to a ROM error (I think, the colors are screwed too) and Bomberman's sound cuts out. Bomberman is a damn fun game though!
 
Got Asterix working tonight after I replaced one of the failed SRAMs. Its basically like a 2-player Simpsons or TMNT with a bunch more goofy characters and silly animations, its actually very fun!
 
Any idea on what the williams boards are?

It turns out to be an empty NARC Boardset and a pinball sound board, the latter of which I have already sold. Not sure what to do with it really.


aren't you a little young to be saying "good golly gee willikers" ?

No way! I know my history ;)
