Amidar
« on: October 19, 2009, 10:13:21 PM »
Yo dudes!

I've found a dedicated Amidar, AND I CAN'T BELIVE MY EYES, THIS IS SOMETHING I WANT, AND I WANT IT BAD!!!! (http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?game_id=6883) that is not in perfect shape (bad sound etc), It's 500 km away and I'm looking into what a car rental would be for a station wagon, asked price (first out in some kind of bid high, auction thingy) is (blush) €50 - and that (and double and tripple and even more I could pay for a dedicated Amidar).

there are a few other guys intested (that live more close by).

Anyone? what is a good price for and Amidar cab (and, Boy- do I want one, they where all gerneric once when I was small), and how much is to much for 500 km of road trip (and back?)

i drove more than 1400 kilometers :o for a dedicated cab last weekend (the whole story along with roadtrip pics to follow shortly), so 500 km sounds like a piece of cake  ;)

once again: if you want something REALLY BAD (and from what you've writtten, AMIDAR falls into that category), you HAVE TO go for it, no matter how much it costs or how far the trip is!!!

is the cab located in sweden?
all i need is ... PONG - and a select few others: TOUCH ME, DRAGON'S LAIR, JOUST, ROBOTRON, MR DO, SAN FRANCISCO RUSH THE ROCK!!!

Now it's mine  ;D end price approx €70 and there will be a road trip this weekend.

I don't mind paying for the game, I don't mind renting a car, I don't mind driving 1000 kms (there and back).

but where will I put it? the apartment is filled up.. there's some space in the kitchen let's put it there and then I'll move around, after all it's my very own AMIDAR!!!

wow, that's a great catch. Amidar is a very nice game and I am a bit jealous. I still have to get my first dedicated cab, but if all goes well my waiting days are almost over.

It's 500 km straight north from me (who is about as down south you can get) here in Sweden. Then It's the same 500 km back  ;)

Hopefully will have some nice pictures for you next sunday. It's a top find, a game I really like and that I used to play as a child. Never seen a dedicated Amidar before, seeing first the game and then the price made my mind up. I'll have to put it in the kitchen to begin with.

Might be able to put a few more arcades in the bedroom if I get a smaller bed in the future  :lol:
