1979 MEGO MINI-VID BREAK FREE – BRAND NEW/UNUSED – WORKS PERFECTLY – MINT GAME!
Released by Mego Corporation in 1979, Mini-Vid Break Free is a portable electronic strategy game for one or two players. Its three selectable games offer player-versus-computer and player-versus-player action, two playing speeds, different racquet sizes, electronic sound effects, automatic scoring, and a bright fluorescent display. The object is to eliminate the illuminated “force field” while protecting your own. It operates on a single 9-volt battery and was part of Mego’s remarkably scarce Mini-Vid electronic-game line.
THIS MAY BE THE ONLY BRAND-NEW, FULLY WORKING EXAMPLE YOU WILL EVER HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BUY! Many collectors own a Mini-Vid, but almost nobody has one that remained unused for nearly half a century—and actually works this beautifully. These games are notoriously found broken, dim, incomplete, or heavily played. I have collected electronic games for decades and have NEVER seen another one operate this well in brand-new condition. The fluorescent display is incredibly bright, the sound is strong, the controls respond perfectly, and the game itself is absolutely MINT. It was carefully tested only to confirm operation.
A SERIOUS WARNING TO COLLECTORS: You will occasionally see sellers describe one of these games as “new” because it remains sealed inside its original plastic bag. They then sell it untested, supposedly to preserve its condition. Here is the problem: after nearly 50 years, these games are famous for not working. A sealed bag does not guarantee working electronics—it may simply conceal a dead game. If you see another example without a clear photograph showing the display illuminated and operating, ask yourself why. “Untested” usually means you are accepting all the risk. This example eliminates the mystery: the photographs show it working brilliantly.
It includes the original box, Styrofoam packing, plastic bag, instruction paperwork, battery-insertion sheet, and original accessory literature shown. The box has age-related fading, old tape, residue, creasing, and shelf wear—please study every photograph. The condition of the box makes the untouched game hiding inside even more am listing a massive collection of vintage electronic games, game consoles, and arcade memorabilia.I have fiddled with vintage games for more than 45 years. If you are a serious collector...or looking for the perfect nostalgic gift for someone who grew up in the 1970s, ’80s, or ’90s...you may have just hit the jackpot. Many of my items are extremely rare, unusual, and sometimes one-of-a-kind finds, so be sure to check my other listings and check back often, as I am constantly adding new treasures from the collection.
I believe in describing every item openly and accurately to the best of my ability..I do not intentionally hide flaws or problems. With the nature of these old games they will almost always have some little issue...buttons don\'t press perfect, screens faded, small scuffs or wear from play.... battery covers don\'t stay on perfect. All games are sold as is due to the nature of these games. If I see something obvious I will point it out.Please study all photos carefully, as the photos are 95% of the description and show exactly what you are buying.
