Air Raid in Atari 2600 lot doesn't even sell for $500!
Re: Air Raid in Atari 2600 lot doesn't even sell for $500!
I'm not familiar with Air Raid, is it that rare? What did the auction end at?

Less than 50 copies of Air Raid were made. So yes, it's that rare; it was the only game made by it's company of Menavision.
I'd be highly suspect of any auction having that myself.

That would have been an awesome find!
But the label was damaged...what a shame.
Things like these makes me want to buy a kick ass car, like a jeep, and go game hunting around PR.

It is the rarest 2600 game of all, with it's weird t-handle. It usually goes for several thousand. I heard there were less than 10 made, but that number seems low.Rob wrote:I'm not familiar with Air Raid, is it that rare? What did the auction end at?

Pretty cheap! I'll buy that in an instant!
LOL
Would be nice to stumble across the game over here in PR. Something tells me someone might have one stuck around somewhere...

Well, only 12 are documented, but there are bound to be more out there. It certainly is cool looking. Love the "T" handle.megasdkirby wrote:Pretty cheap! I'll buy that in an instant!
