This one with a booklet is going for more than I paid for a whole box full o' sh!t that included Mean 18 and Double Dragon + 21 other games:

Definitely the "holy grail" 7800 game

I actually quite like MEAN 18 as a game too. The graphics are quite sharp and the use of colour is good.

I was often frustrated that the 7800 games seemed less colourful than NES games, even though the 7800 had something like 5 times as many colours to choose from. Unfortunately on the 7800, more games tend to look like FIGHT NIGHT and ACE OF ACES than Mean 18 or Tower Toppler.

Since when is Tank Command going for less than Mean 18? I'd gladly pay the going rate of Mean 18 for a Tank Command.

Given the rash of 7800 collection completions lately, here's what I need in case anyone wants to help make it one more completion. Haven't added to my 7800 collection in about 5 years...

Alien Brigade
Fatal Run
Mario Bros.
Motor Psycho
Pete Rose Baseball
Planet Smashers
Tank Command

I have alien brigade and it is a great game to play with the light gun.... always thought it was actually operation wolf.... Fatal Run is a bit easy and reminds me of the great american cross country race by Activision. Moto Psycho plays like Pole position with jumping. I rather like the jumping option. I am listenig to Stratavarious on my personaL CD Player at the pesent time so I am reminising about the music and the amazing games that Atari produced. :roll: :twisted: :D :) 8)
