Anyway, here's a nice eBay auction for a boxed Sega Master System 2 complete with built-in game, controller, Sega catalogue, and power supply unit.

Boxed NES Action Set

The Nintendo Entertainment System never came close to dominating Europe's gaming market, but despite them 8-bit home micros and the Master System it did manage to provide the continent with some excellent Nintendo gaming, and gather a modest but sizable following. Of course, the console remained more or less the same excellent NES the rest of the world came to know and play with, and despite missing a few games it did secure some rare exclusives.

You can own your very own European (Spanish to be precise) NES by bidding on this NES Action Set on eBay. It is the complete boxed version of the NES that comes with two controllers, all the cables, leaflets, polys, manual, Zapper, and the Duck Hunt/Super Mario cartridge.

Sega Master System Mark II

I do have a soft spot for the Sega Master System, and I still have one always within arm's reach. Sega's humble 8-bit console, you see, besides being the only console that managed to survive among Europe's home computer driven gaming market of the 1980s, had many excellent games released for it, allowed for some impressive for the era graphics, and was modestly priced.

Happily, the machine remains modestly priced to this very day, and you can grab one via this Sega Master System eBay auction. It is the more compact mk. 2 version of the console you'll be bidding on, and it comes with its cables, two controllers, and two boxed games (Donald Duck: The Lucky Dimed Caper, Casino Games). The built-in game is Alex Kidd In Miracle World.

ColecoVision, Expansion Module 1, 30 Games

1 Atari 2600 22 Games

The Atari 2600, the first truly mainstream console, is arguably one of the few gaming machines that shaped and defined the history of video games so deeply.

The console comes with its cables, one joystick, and 22 working cartridges including such titles as Pitfall!, Adventure, Frogger, Barnstorming, Ms. Pac-Man, and Q-Bert.
