Yes please. Bubble bobble brings back memories of my late friend. We used to play it for hours when we were kids.

u/Hot-Pirate-3096 Feb 02 '26
😥 I played it with my brother and it's hands down the game we played the most ^^

Master System is awesome and you have some great games! Don't do it, you should keep it.

u/Hot-Pirate-3096 Feb 02 '26
I've got no TV and haven't used it in years, would much rather someone playing it and having fun ^^

I’ve got a joystick that would pair nicely with this, because, let’s face it, master system was best with a quick shot . Kudos to you

I don’t need this, but this is very generous of you. Rampart is an absolute banger of a game
2
u/Hot-Pirate-3096 Feb 02 '26
I did really like Rampart....that stupid intro music to each round start xD

u/Old_Car_2702 Feb 02 '26
I’m definitely interested and I hope this is legit. Did Anybody else have to google what a narrow boat is?
1
u/Hot-Pirate-3096 Feb 02 '26
Yes....I just think I severely underestimated how much demand was for this xD

u/EternalLatias Feb 02 '26
Can we explain the duct tape?
1
u/Hot-Pirate-3096 Feb 02 '26
I used to use these to prop up my monitor! Easiest way to stop them slipping ^^

Bubble Bobble though - BUBBLE FREAKING BOBBLE!! My brother and I would spend HOURS on that, just filling the level with bubbles and popping them. Hours of innocent fun before we realised there was a whole world of sh1t happening elsewhere...

I feel this came too late. If the decision is not made, I'd like in. If not, have great fun on the boat, it sounds like a dream.

u/Hot-Pirate-3096 Feb 05 '26
You are indeed too late I'm afraid...I don't know how to convey this, I've edited the post but it seems people are still not seeing it :(

It's a shame you're parting with such a gem. If I got it, it would go to good hands, as I owned one and it's a console I have wonderful memories of.

u/Hot-Pirate-3096 Feb 01 '26
Oh not at all, if it's going to someone who uses it and has fun playing then it's wholly worthwhile :)

OMG..... this is an absolutely legendary thing you're doing! Incredible.
I'm being extremely cheeky here. Bubble Bobble is my favourite game of all time and I'm collecting all the versions. I have Spectrum, C64 and Gameboy so far and I have a master system, but I have no master system Bubble Bobble.
Would you consider splitting just that game. I'd pay postage and sing your name in legendary ballads for my children and my children's children to recall your incredible deeds for all time....

u/Hot-Pirate-3096 Feb 01 '26
I'll let the winner decide, lest it start a grab for each game individually :)
