Thank you very much for this thread. It was created more than 10 years ago but I have been playing Wizardry on NES and this facts are very interesting to know. Cheers.

Incredible find !! I loved the video, very emotional and few shaky hands, hahaha, congrats !

Very sorry that I took the bait and answered the thread, but I didn't want him reporting my listing on eBay as fake or something. Great to cross words with you, I should come here more often

I don't care if the auctions ends in 5 usd, i will sell the cart, has happened before and I have no problem. The thing that bothers me is that you DEMANDED to change the listing and you don't even know what you are talking about. The real collectors are watching the item, and some others just want to have a R9 o R10 game because its rare and they can sell it for more. I don't care about the price, this find are usually very cheap because I got them many years ago You could have asked nicely and research about the legitimacy in a polite way, but the first thing you did was post my message on a thread in a negative way

It went up because of my bid, and if you have ever purchased anything on EBay, you would know that the price is nothing till the end of the auction. Do you believe we are all conspiring to prove you wrong? I mean C'mon dude can't you understand what has been said in this thread? My teenager can comprehend it, why can't you! Really, does saying shit like this make you feel better about yourself. Wow dude! What the fuck is wrong with you? Saying what? You stubborn donkey He's trolling ... I can't think of any other reason to answer like he does He sent 3 messages on eBay and presented himself as an expert collector, demanding that I change the listing to PAL Asterix ...

Is not the same .... but maybe I'm missing something here The image you are referring shows a PAL SILVER GRAY label .... my cart is METALLIC SILVER label. And maybe I'm wrong but the asterisk refers details about the licensing of the Intellectual Property .... just check images of the Rubik's Cube cart that uses an asterisk to refer the message : "*Rubik's Cube ® and trade dress thereof used under license from Ideal Toy Corporation" ... And if you remember, Rubik's Cube was re-labeled as Atari Video Cube, and this was because of licensing issues. Check the scans : http://www.atariage.com/cart_page.html?SoftwareLabelID=419 Also, check the Obelix NTSC cart, check the metallic label http://www.atariage.com/cart_page.html?SoftwareLabelID=1021 Obviously I test every cart before listing it for auction on my regular set-up, where PAL games roll the screen and NTSC don't. I have metallic silver label asterix PAL carts and I know the difference.

Hi, mates !! It's such an honor to be recognized by some of you, thank you very much, I really appreciate the good comments !! I am aware that PAL versions have silver and gray labels, I replied the message of chrislynn5 and sent an image of a silver labeled pal cart with a "P" on the end label. But the picture he talks about shows a cart with gray label. I can do any test you need to show you that this cart is legit saludos !

eskobar has sold a few loose ones he has found in/around Mexico Yes, but he got pretty crappy prices for his as people did not trust that they were NTSC And crappy labels. Some of the them were minty but most were crappy Right now i have one ready for sale and with a label in great condition but the end label is ripped off in half ... it's ntsc Those carts are quite difficult to find loose or CIB EDIT : I hadn't seen the auction ... i sold him that asterix My auctions were pretty low but that one was the highest, it ended on 152.50 on May 21st, 2008 Is this one yours Eskobar? http://cgi.ebay.com/ASTERIX-ATARI-2600-NTSC-VERSION-ULTRA-RARE_W0QQitemZ280429962618QQcmdZViewItemQQptZVideo_Games_Games?hash=item414aeda57a What is it with you Mexicans?? Can't you look after your carts??? hehehehe, don't blame us too many cart arrive from north american in poor condition; the biggest problem when those games arrive to Mexico is that 90% of the flea market sellers trash the box and manuals

Even if the seller was the stupidest person in the galaxy, the $5,000 + cost should ring a bell inside his/her head I wanted to place a bid but i out of that league ...

I hate when things like this happens to us .... we get all greedy, nervous and furious when an item like this comes out; that why i always try to keep gaming with the new stuff to keep myself mentally "sane". Congrats to the buyer
