Fast Eddie is similar in look and gameplay to the final "rivets" level of Donkey Kong, though instead of pulling rivets out of the girders, you must collect nine stationary and moving prizes that randomly appear onscreen in order to advance to the next level. Impeding your progress are fast-moving Sneakers, which run back and forth on each of the five levels of the building. As you advance to later levels, there may be more Sneakers on each level, or the Sneakers may grow fatter, making it more difficult to jump over them. Eddie can run left and right, jump, and climb up and down ladders. Eddie will make a long leap if he jumps while running.
There is one Sneaker Eddie cannot jump over: Hightop, the world's tallest Sneaker, who occupies the top level of the structure. Hightop shrinks a little every time Eddie collects a prize. When Eddie has collected all nine prizes, Hightop is so small that he reveals a prize over his head which Eddie much capture to advance to the next level. An extra life is awarded at the completion of a level. A player can choose to start at levels one through eight.
Published in 1982 by Fox video games (20th Century Fox) for the Atari 2600 game system.
Game cartridge only. There are no instructions on how to play but that should be easy to find on the internet. There is no original box.
CONDITION:
I purchased about a dozen different Atari game cartridges recently. The guy I purchased them from said the last time they were played was about 5 years ago and there were no problems. They have been in storage, each cartridge individually wrapped for protection. I do not have an Atari system to test the cartridge with so I will allow returns but only if I am notified within 24 hours of delivery (per USPS tracking) that the cartridge is in non-working condition. Original selling price and original shipping will be refunded, return shipping charges will not be refunded. A refund will be issued once it is determined that the returned cartridge is the same one that was mailed.
Buyer to pay USPS First Class Mail Parcel delivery charges of $6.45.
SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT SHIPPING CHARGES: Twice yearly, and again in November for the holiday season (so three times per year) the postal service increases shipping charges. This is what they call their "Delivering For America" plan in which they hope to become profitable. It's a 10 year plan that started in 2021, so we've got years to go with multiple price increases on shipping charges each year. I try to absorb the new charges and haven't increased my shipping charges in three years. This year unfortunately, I have to if I want to stay in business. I'll try to keep it reasonable and even absorb some of the increases when possible.
I do combine shipping on multiple items purchased as long as all items will safely fit into a single box or envelope. However, my web host is not set up to calculate multiple item shipping costs. At checkout, you will be charged full shipping price on each item purchased and I will refund the appropriate amount of overpayment. If you are uncomfortable with that, you can send me an email with your zip code and stating which items you'll be purchasing and I'll calculate the correct combined shipping charges and send you a custom invoice.
INTERNATIONAL PURCHASED: Sorry, I do not ship to locations outside of the United States.
All items in my listings come from either estate or garage sales. I do not know if they come from homes where smoking or pets were present. Unless otherwise stated, all items are sold in the same condition as when I obtained them.
