CAGiversary!
Update: It's now OOS online. Many Target stores still have them, but they're ringing up at full price. Keep price checking them in store; hopefully, they'll go on clearance in-store soon.

You can still use the Target.com link at the bottom of this post and then click the "Find it at a Target store" button to check for availability in your area.

----------------------

This deal is mainly for collectors and Sega/Sonic fans. The Coleco Sonic handheld system is now on clearance for $20 at Target.com. It used to be $50. Basically, this handheld has 20 built-in Sega Master System/Game Gear games. What's really funny is that this thing even has TV-out capabilities! Yes, Sony couldn't include that on the $200 PSP, but this little-known budget portable has it.

Games included are:
- Sonic Drift 2
- Sonic Triple Trouble
- Alex Kidd in High-Tech World
- Alex Kidd in Miracle World
- Altered Beast
- Assault City
- Astro Warrior
- Aztec Adventure
- Bomber Raid
- Columns
- Ecco II: The Tides of Time
- Fantasy Zone
- Fantasy Zone: The Maze
- Global Defense
- Kung Fu Kid
- The Ninja
- Penguin Land
- Quartet
- Snail Maze
- Super Columns

You can buy the system either at Target.com or Amazon.com (via Target of course) using the links below.

[quote name='psiufoxx2']Ya. Got it today. It's not good. :([/QUOTE]


not good? for $25 I think it is a pretty unique device. Certainly better than a blurry GameGear.
 
[quote name='Nephilim']not good? for $25 I think it is a pretty unique device. Certainly better than a blurry GameGear.[/quote]Better than the blurry GameGear, but to be honest none of these games inspire anything more than a passing interest. I replayed and relived some gaming memories playing Sonic 3 and Alex Kidd, but without the ability to save my progress and return later, this unit is all but useless to me. Sure I can have some fun from time to time, but for $25 I could have bought 3-4 console games and quadrupled my fun factor.

It was just a disappointment. Anyone wanna buy a slightly used system? :whistle2:/
 
[quote name='spooie_redux']Mine was estimated for arrival between 2/15-2/23. It's been sitting in the same spot, 2 hours from here, for the last 7 days.[/quote]

Call Target CS and tell them what happened...I did and they refunded my shipping. $7 back was nice.
 
I actually contacted UPS, who told me to contact Amazon (I ordered through them and their policy is to not give out customer info through UPS), who said they were sorry and didn't know why the package didn't arrive, and to give it a few more days and if if never arrives, contact them for a refund.
