More Videogaming Finds
Friday, March 26, 2010
OK, I haven’t blogged about my videogame finds at the local flea market(s). I parenth’ that ‘s’ because there’s only one other flea market at play here. The singular, amazing, Laney College flea market is STILL the champion of videogame treasure mining. But the other flea market at play here is the West Winds flea, [...]

Box of Carts from Laney Swap Meet
Monday, June 30, 2008
Hit my favorite flea market this past Sunday at Laney college in Oakland. While I didn’t score anything amazing, I did get a legal box full of carts for $30. The guy wanted $50, but I walked away, and by the time I was 2 booths down, he was shouting “$30!” All of the above [...]
Burger King Savior
Monday, May 12, 2008
I normally hate fast food. But EA had shitty food at its event tonight, and I needed something to absorb the liquor when I got home to Oakland. So I wandered into the Burger King at 13th and Broadway for a chicken sandwich. I had the hiccups. No sooner had I ordered, than Doris, the [...]
Heinold’s 125th Anniversary Party!
Monday, April 28, 2008
Heinold’s First and Last and Last Chance Saloon is turning 125 years old on June Sunday 1st. In honor of this historic occasion, you can drink nickel beer from noon until someone calls the cops. No fooling! In case you didn’t know, Alameda Island was dry back in the day. 1880′s, you see. As such, [...]
Thanks and Enjoy
Monday, April 28, 2008
Well, that about wraps it up for the ROMs. All has been revealed. I’d like to thank everyone who helped out (Kevtris, Kingpin, and Zylon) in identifying the games, and making them available to the world. I’ll be returning to my normal, silly blog thingie now, and allow the games to speak for themselves. Another [...]

Does anyone in the Bay Area want to meet before the flea market? I think a group of collectors could make a great bunch to have coffee with. Comment here if yer into it tomorrow morning!
First Ever Shot of Sword and Sorceror
Saturday, April 26, 2008
It only took a few hours to find someone, but #RGVC’s Kevtris came through on the Coleco ROM problem. I have posted another Zip file here, which includes playable forms of the Coleco ROMs I found, all stitched up. The Dragon 80 game has a broken select screen, but the game works, I’m told. I [...]
