Book excerpt: The Atari VCS (2600), 5200, 7800, Mattel Intellivision, Coleco Colecovision and Milton Bradley Microvision. Collecting Cartridges is much more than a book, for many it's a passion - likely the closest thing to a time machine to our childhoods and a period of time where video game consoles were a completely new concept. It's technology that demands a fascination, not just by those of us that lived it, but by future generations who wish to enjoy part of this very unique period of time.This guide is a work of love. It came about through the lack of any other detailed price guide that was really reflective of what classic video games, in similar conditions, were selling for. The information took years to compile, but became a personal resource being referenced regularly. There was no reason that if one person found it helpful, many others might as well.The layout of this guide is extremely simple to reference. It explains, through words and pictures, how to categorize any particular game title by its condition. The game titles are then broken down by console, publisher and name. Each title generally has multiple conditions reflective of what the same game would be bought and sold for. Most important is the fact that these prices are, in no way, arbitrary. The prices are an average of each title's actual selling price. Formulas are used to fill in the value of each game under varying conditions.Great care has also been provided to reference the author(s) of each game. These designers were the proverbial 'rock stars' of the day. Part of the enjoyment of collecting is getting to know each programmer and their library of work. This guide contains an appendix which provides a very thorough cross reference.Along with historical information on each console and adding a few fond memories, this guide should be a part of any classic gamer's library."Don't pay too much or accept too little. If you have anything to do with classic video game systems, you need this guide. This is the most accurate way of determining a game's value."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 1970s, video arcade games sprung to life in the form of Pong, Space Invaders, Asteroids, and Pac-Man, and if you were lucky enough to have an Atari system you could play Frogger or Galaga at home. By the 1980s, arcade and video games were entrenched as a pop culture phenomenon and were ubiquitous. But as quickly as the form took flight it began to change with the advent of hand-held games and more sophisticated home-gaming. Brian Eddy here traces the evolution of arcade video games, giving readers an inside look at the stratospheric rise-and transformation-of the industry.
