As a collector, I tend to come across a variety of game related oddities and some one-off consoles. This is a listing of some of the random video game items I've found that son't quite fit into the larger categories on the site.
Video Game Consoles & Handhelds
Retro Entertainment System
The Retro Entertainment System is a Nintendo NES clone compatible with NES game cartridges.
Atari Flashback 3
The Atari Flashback 3 is an all-in-one replica of the Atari 2600 (on a smaller scale) with 60 built-in games. It has 2 detachable joysticks and connects easily to any TV via standard RCA plugs.
Merlin Electonic Wizard
Flashing lights were once considered gaming and Merlin was on top of the latest wave of sophisticated (for their time) interactive electronic games.
Radio Shack Scoreboard
Radio Shack Scoreboard - An early Pong rip-off trying to dilute Pong into Tennis, Hockey and Handball
Multi-Game Joystick Arcade Hits
Multi-Game Joystick - Space Invaders
This all-in-one joystick features ten classic (and a few peculiar oddities) video games with easy-to-connect RCA cables. You'll have it lodged onto your TV in no time so you can delve into some classic arcade gaming.
Classic Arcade Game Joystick - Pac-Man
This joystick is battery powered and connects to RCA video-in ports on TVs. It contains 12 classic arcade games.
Gaming themed Candy Containers
Pac-Man Ghost Candy Container
I dig this metal Pac-Man Ghost candy box because it retains the rippled flow across the bottom.
Nintendo Power-up Mushroom Candy Container
Who doesn't love a Nintendo power-up mushroom especially when it's jammed full of minty-looking mushroom-shaped candy? OK, they aren't mints. These are Apple-sour flavored.
Au'Some Mario Candy Container
Impulse items never interest me until they're at the register in the Game Section. Suddenly I'm overwhelmed with a mysterious craving for game-themed crap. OK, these Mario candies tasted better than crap, but I need to work harder at staving off the need to buy this sort of useless shit.
And don't get me started about this unique spelling of "awesome".
NES Controller Mints
Replicating the look of the classic Nintendo NES controller, you'll find it full of mints. If you like mints or need to get rid of stank-breath, these might do the trick. I couldn't resist this novelty item even though I don't like mints... especially the ones spritzed with urine near restaurant exits.
Gaming Themed Toys
Donkey Kong Monster Truck
I always wonder about the origin of such branded toys. I imagine Hot Wheels had to license rights to apply the Donkey Kong name to this toy monster truck.
Donkey Kong Jenga
All the fun of Jenga with a proper nod to classic Donkey Kong. I found this gem on the impulse rack at a Borders Book store that was closing. Long line, but a fun find.
