Hey guys. My account just got approved here and I wanted to let you all know that I've decided to sell my NUON collection.

My Dad and I were hardcore collectors in the 90s and early 2000s. Dad in particular loved collecting for the Atari Jaguar and that spun off in NUON territory. He passed away in 2007, and while I've held onto these for a long time now, they are better off in the hands of collectors who will really appreciate them.

I listed three separate auctions on eBay.

NUON 5 GAMES LOT
NUON 3 SEALED GAMES LOT
Iron Soldier 3 "Demo - Not For Resale"

I hope my asking prices are fair and accurate. It's hard finding info so I mostly based the prices off of previous eBay sales. I have no idea what the Iron Soldier 3 is worth but I'm aware that it is extremely rare.

If I need to make adjustments on the prices I will. Please help me in any way that you can. Thank you!

If you get $300 for that Iron Soldier I am going to sell mine. Personally I think that is high and I don't think you will get that but I might be wrong. The reason being that the NUON market is tiny.

Thank you for the advice. I went ahead and lowered it to $200 with a BEST OFFER option. Seem about fair now?

Hey RetroGamer! Good to see someone else on here. Hopefully after you sell the collection you'll
stick around.

I'm taking a look at your collections and I have to say I have all of these so far, but I've been at this a while. Now if he has Next Tetris usually in a paper sleeve, that would be AWESOME. :D

Reviewing the auctions:

5 Nuon Games:
- For $190 comes to $38 a game. Some of those sell for less and some for more than $38, but there we are. Not too bad.

3 Seal Nuon Games
- At $175 comes to $58 a game. A bit high, but we'll see how that goes.

Iron Solder 3 for Nuon
-At $200 should be plausible. If I didn't have IS3 I'd pay $200.

As Helper mentioned, the market is tiny. I've tried to stir up activity on here over the last few weeks since I just got a N501. Not even Helper has been writing. :p

I also started a Nuon discussion that got some talk, you could try there too.

One person on Atariage is looking for a controller. Do you have to sell?

Thank you! That's a great breakdown. I have decided to change the Iron Soldier 3 to an auction style starting at $90.

What is great about IS3 is that it has a port to Playstation so if you we so inclined you could run both side by side and see how the NUON held up against the Playstation when someone actually spent some time developing a game on the NUON side. The downside of that time spent is the game released later than the others and had compatibility problems with some of the NUON hardware. Tragedy, imho.

    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
