King's Quest 1 VGA... Sigh.

So the same thing - I just realized, right now - I don't have KQ1VGA (the box and all). I have it through several different collections and such... but not the actual box.

So this must be a case, where my buddy back then (Shawn) probably has (well, now had) SQ1VGA and KQ1VGA. Because I know we had played them back in the day.

So I am guessing he kept ownership (we usually went 50/50) because his dad had the real computer, while I had the Tandy 1000 SX.

But damn it - even went on ebay to check - fetches over $100 currently.

Yet found quite a few KQ4 or KQ3 that were like 25 bucks.

Go and figure.

Of course you mean KQ1 SCI, not VGA. VGA would mean the fan remake from AGDI.

Yes, sorry - SCI.

I always think of it as VGA - because that's how they refer to it in the King's Quest Collections.

So I assume calling it King's Quest 1 VGA is still accurate, since that's what they called it too.

I assume, it's because it uses VGA graphics vs the previous used CGA/EGA graphics.
