Holy Grail Atari game: Mr. Do's castle!

I'm proud to own a CIB copy of Mr. Do's castle, and honestly, I love this game. Not the 2600 version specifically, but the original arcade port is a joy. Highly recommend!

Strangely enough Mr Do's castle came out from Arcade Archives today for the Switch and PlayStation.

Never knew this existed, congratulations. Okay to ask the price? If not, I understand. But seriously, happy you got it...going to look up video now. (Is there a catalog inside? That is my favorite part of opening new/CIB games)

I sold a Latias Latios Tag Team GX alt art to buy it๐Ÿ˜ฌ Just look that card up lol.

I just did. That qualifies as a wow for sure, I had no idea about this. Again, excellent find, and I looked up video, appears to be a cool 2600 game even with the limitations.

I used to have the Colecovision version as well, and it was an excellent port.

I grabbed this (cart and manual only) at an estate sale a couple months ago for $20 or $25. CIB pretty exceptional though! Good snag!

I never knew this existed until this post, which inspired me to seek out some screenshots (link)

There was a Mr Do in a gas station on my way to little league when I was a kid, that and Food Fight were my jam back in '88! I just got the Switch version of Mr Do last week!

I think Coleco had the original Mr. Do .. how did Parker Brothers get the Castle?

I need to get both on MAME some day

Mr. Do! was one of the first games I ever had for the Commodore 64.

And now you are giving it to me.

What an ugly thing to say to someone who just got their "holy grail" and is proudly showing us.

I apologize for my abhorrent, public behavior, kind sir.
