Maniac Mansion question,


I was just wondering if any one had any information on where I could possibly get episodes of this show. I don't care if they are on any sort of media file, DVD or VHS. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Please email me at [email protected] and put maniac mansion in title so it doesn't get spammed out...

The "Maniac Mansion - Love Collection" is also on half.com, the best price currently is $45

The tape only has 2 episodes on it.

We need a dvd petition. I have posted on the MM video game fan board as well about this!

Wow, I haven't checked on here in a long time to see if any one had responded and I am glad that some people have. :) I was looking around for info on that one VHS that is available and I am seriously considering buying it. What message board did yu say you posted about this on also? I am very interested in getting ANY episodes I can of this show in any format. Thanks for all of your help in this matter.

Just wanted to 'update' this really.. FDirstly, the link to the 'forum' from the Maniac Mansion fan site, mentioned in an earlier thread, is telling me that the site (where the forum was hosted) can't be found. Next up, all the provided links to sales now say things like the sale is over, or this person isn't selling any items right now. Finally, conundrum number three.. I'm guessing in Canada, the same as in America, you use NTSC for your VCRs? Over here in the UK we use PAL, so those won't work on our VCRs (unless I'm wrong and you use PAL same as we do). So I also need a PAL copy. Anybody think they might have any ideas?

reply

Yeah that forum doesn't work. And yes America and Canada both use NTSC.

I also am looking for this series, but I'm certainly not interested in paying more than 10 bucks for one tape with only 2 episodes on it. With all the recent DVD boxed sets, you'd think we'd get this one! What a great show it was.

I did find the following forum:

There's also the completely empty MM forum devoted to the show only, at TV.com:

http://www.tv.com/maniac-mansion/show/4271/forums.html

I only mention it because I'm extremely active on TV.com and MM is one of my "watched" shows. There's a pretty good ep guide there. However note that TV.com is very strict and any discussions of "pirated" videos or DVDs, if pointed out to the staff, would result in deletion and disciplinary action (just thought I'd mention that before anyone got themselves in trouble).
