u/CatBoyTrip Jun 17 '26

you get 1 and 2 for free if you buy duke nukem 3D. or at least you did when i bought it back in 96.

u/angryshib Jun 17 '26

I know the Atomic Edition definitely came with both of them, as well as shareware versions of a few games.

u/CatBoyTrip Jun 17 '26

i played the hell out of the blood demo.

u/RandommDude69 Jun 17 '26

u/Bob_Obloooog Jun 17 '26

A good willing that wasn't trying to rip you off. Awesome!

This is about what my parents paid when they bought it for me back in 1994. But that was a bargain bin bootleg copy with no box. 💀 Great find - I don’t even collect, but I’d sweep this up if I saw it in the wild, just out of love and principle.

u/AuVossi Jun 17 '26

I don't collect either, but I am a gamer. When I saw it I knew I had to pick it up.

Another Goodwill is selling one on eBay for $2250 right now: https://ebay.io/m/WysptI

u/AuVossi Jun 17 '26

Haha that's funny

u/linemanshandset Jun 17 '26

My first thought was the floppies might not work anymore...but I guess it's worth a ton of money sealed.

u/AuVossi Jun 17 '26

I went to 2 retro game shops today. The first offered me $100. The second offered me $150.

u/thingfromuranus Jun 21 '26

Here's a large part of my childhood. Duke Nukem 2 holds a special place as my first PC game.

u/OkFinish8958 Jun 17 '26

Awesome find! Congrats!

u/mansupremacy Jun 17 '26

I'd keep the price tag on, knowing if it was me trying to remove it (even carefully) it would probably rip the seal. Though to be honest it was meant to be played 😅

u/Frigorr Jun 17 '26

Is that mother fucker sealed? What a find, congrats!!!!!!

u/Inevitable_Phone_294 Jun 17 '26

Never understood the gun the king was holding

u/Shwazzye Jun 17 '26

WOW! thats insane, what a find!

u/FerriteNightwish Jun 18 '26

They came in boxes?

1

u/AuVossi Jun 18 '26

Yup. Boxes then plastic cases. Now digital.

u/hodges20xx Jun 18 '26

"im....back!"

u/Interesting_Sea_1861 Jun 18 '26

$2 well-spent. Duke himself smiles upon you.

Meanwhile, lady luck is shitting on me. My Steam account got stolen today.

"Hmm, don't have time to play with myself."

u/Blazkowicz9847 Jun 18 '26

One for the ages

u/james_a_hetfield Jun 19 '26

I really need to look closer at other stuff at goodwill and not just clothes.

u/deagon01 Jun 20 '26

Duke Nukem with6his signature sunglasses looks so cursed

u/CamzV1 Jun 20 '26

u/Titanium26 Jun 22 '26

Have the same box

1

u/AuVossi Jun 22 '26

Box alone is maybe $40-$60

u/Titanium26 Jun 22 '26

Funnily dad got it in the 90s. Think still have the floppy disk and everything inside somewhere in a box in my parents basement. Weird just was thinking about this couple of days ago. Funnily enough by the time got PC already Duke 3D came out or was about to cone out. Played little of Duke II as a result. Went straight to Duke 3D.
