Do you buy Atari games and consoles?

Yes, we buy Atari Jaguar, Atari Jaguar CD, and Atari Lynx games and consoles. We don't buy Atari 2600, 5200, or 7800 consoles, games, or accessories.

More details
  • See what we pay for Atari Jaguar games, Jaguar CD games, or Atari Lynx games. Each platform has its own pricing pages, so you can check our offer before adding anything to your order.
  • Atari 7800 consoles are having RF switch box issues, and the RF output is failing on most of them. The Atari 5200 has been known for failures ever since its launch. The Atari 2600 just doesn't generate enough sales for us to buy it.
  • We also stopped buying ColecoVision consoles because most of them are now having cartridge reading failures. Other obscure consoles, like the Vectrex and Intellivision, just don't generate enough sales for us to buy them.

Rare Game Selling Questions

Answers to common questions about selling your rare games and consoles.

▶ How to ship rare video games securely when selling online?

Wrap each game and console in bubble wrap, keep discs in their cases, and pack everything tightly in a sturdy box. Fill any empty space with padding so nothing shifts, and pack consoles so they can't press against your games during shipping.

▶ Do you buy Broken Consoles?

We don't typically buy broken consoles, but in this category we do buy broken TurboExpress and TurboDuo consoles.

▶ Do the games in your Sell Rare Video Games Category need the Original Case and Manual?

Cartridge-based games like Atari Jaguar, Atari Lynx, and Neo Geo Pocket only require the game cartridge. Disc-based games like Atari Jaguar CD, Panasonic 3DO, Philips CD-i, and TurboGrafx-CD require the original case, manual, artwork, and disc. For TurboGrafx-16 games, we require the HuCard, original case, end label attached, and manual.

▶ Best practices for authenticating rare console games?

Check the cartridge or disc, label, and packaging for signs they don't match an original copy. Our blog articles show examples of counterfeit games and what to look for.

Some of the most valuable rare games we buy include Magical Chase for TurboGrafx-16, Super Air Zonk and Bonk 3: Bonk's Big Adventure for TurboGrafx-CD, Atari Karts for Atari Jaguar, and Lemmings for Atari Lynx.
