purdum Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 (edited) Is Q*Bert's Qubes an R8 or R9? It is listed on the guide as an R9, but I saw some posts where people think it should be an R8. What is the consensus on the rarity? At any rate, I am going to put it up for sale. It is a loose cartridge (NTSC), in excellent condition. If anyone wants it, PM me an offer. Thanks. I made a mistake. I got this cartridge from a friend and I thought that it was for Atari 2600. It is actually for the Colecovision system. Digital Press lists the Colecovision version of the game as an R8 - the same rarity that they list the Atari 2600 version as. The Colecovision system had an add-on that would allow the user to play Atari 2600 games on the Colecovision system, however, the Colecovision games are not compatible with the Atari 2600. I am very sorry that I may have misled some people with my mistake. The game that I have is for Colecovision, not Atari. Check out my listing in the Marketplace for pictures.

homerwannabee Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 (edited) I personally think the cart maybe more of a rarity 8 while the box is definetly a rarity 9 Edited August 22, 2007 by homerwannabee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purdum Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 Thank you. Judging by your "River Patroller" status, I assume that you have a fairly good knowledge of rarity. So, what do you think a loose R8 cartridge might sell for? That is the most rare cartridge I own. I am not a collector. I just like atari. Thanks.

I don't know what your cart would go for. And in fact I do not know what any loose Q*berts Qubes cart would go for. But I have seen them go anywhere from $75-$90. I think that the fact it has the name Q*bert attached to it is what has made it a more valuable cart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purdum Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 (edited) I also have the first Q*Bert for Atari 2600 if someone wants the pair. Edited August 27, 2007 by purdum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if you have a Colecovision system, I have posted some pictures in the Marketplace forum. I have also seen the Colecovision system for sale on ebay.

Ha, don't assume that people here know things just because they have a lot of posts...some people talk alot but don't really say much. (Not directed at homer, who does know quite a bit about rarity.) I just edited this post. The game I have is for the Colecovision system, not Atari. I made a mistake. A copy of Qubes for ColecoVison is worth $25 to $40 depending on condition.
