@Inaminate_Carbon_Rod Not hugely exciting but probably eBay. That or trade in to a local retro games shop, but you'll get most value in your pocket selling directly. Be sure you check for similar game and watches on eBay and make sure you filter to "sold" to get an idea for what they're actually selling for. Ignore listed prices, only refer to sold ones.

https://www.pricecharting.com/ is pretty good for this, just be sure to look at outliers in the sold results to see why they were so much more or less expensive than others.

protip: if you still have the battery door it's worth like double the price.

Got the doors for 5!

One of them even has the original box, internal packaging and instruction manual.

I wish I cared about the rest as much I had cared for that Legend of Zelda.

Thank you to you both.

I was secretly hoping for a niche community buried somewhere on the internet chock full of cashed up collectors hahaha.

I’ll have a peek around.
