Title: I found my Mattel Microvision!
Post by: phoenix1967 on November 12, 2005, 02:18:46 PM
I did some long overdue cleaning today, and came across the Mattel Microvision that I thought I had lost!

I opened it up and everything was there. Blockbuster, Pinball, and StarTrek Phaser Strike (CIB).

Now I just need to get a couple of 9V batteries to see if it still works.

Finding things you've lost is the cheapest material way to get happy. Nice work. Where did you find it?

Cool domestic find!  How long were they lost? ;)

I found it at the bottom of a box of random crap (seems like I have a lot of these).

I thought it may have gotten sold at a garage sale or something years ago!

I wonder if my old Merlin will show up?

nice. that's a little piece of video game history you've got there. the first handheld with interchangeable cartridges.

just don't expect to get hours of engaging gameplay from it.

Cool! 8)

If you want to come over to my house someday and find the NES top loader that I have around here somewhere, I'll gladly accept your offer.
