Happy trails old friend, Dragon's Lair rides off into the sunset...

I was made an offer I couldn't resist, so Dragon's Lair has left the building. The funds will go to a good cause, funding the finishing of the basement arcade. Sucks thinking about it, cause I know I will probably never see another one. The game really took me back to the arcade, seeing DL for the first time and being so intimidated by it. Fastest $.50 you could spend back then. So long old friend, you will be missed.

Sheds a tear.... ;)
Offer you couldn't refuse? Wow.

Yeah, I really want to finish the basement in our new house and turn it into the gameroom I've always wanted. Without selling DL, I wouldn't have been able to get it finished this year. Now I just have to think of a way to pay for the blacklight carpet...
 
That's awesome.

You can always raise cash like Phet....sell blood and semen. Doesn't even have to be your own.... :D
 
I would feel the same way if mine left, and I hardly ever even play it ... I just like seeing it in there, I guess.

Me too, I just like seeing it and hearing the attract mode. It didn't get a ton of play, but it is so classic, unique and iconic. Kinda like a "time warp"...pun intended.
