toymailman Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 I just bid, and lost, on an item that I hadn't seen before for the Atari 2600. There is a green box in this lot that says "Video Game Program". Anybody know what this is? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=160205290422 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipster Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Dunno, green boxed games were Blackjack, Football, Codebreaker, Golf, Surround, Flag Capture, Casino, Championship Soccer, Othello and Concentration any others?). The ones in bold look the closest match to the green in the pic. Seeing as it's only the box i guess it could have been a shop promo box or something.

video game addict Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I wonder if it could have been filler for that case even? I would have liked to have seen more pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxman Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Hopefully something really cool or else someone just way overpaid for a bunch of common empty boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zwackery Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I'm posting a pic of the box from the auction for those who are adverse to evilBay or just too lazy...you know who you are! It's the green one with Video game Program on the spine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Psionic Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Why doesn't someone just message the seller and ask him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincYnoTi Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Could be this item. I'd have to find mine and look at the spine to make sure. Doesn't everyone have a set of these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pant Load Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Could be this item. I'd have to find mine and look at the spine to make sure. Doesn't everyone have a set of these? On yours it looks like when you bend that top flap down it would stick out past the game box, but on the mystery auction it doesn't stick out. I think you're right though - this is what it is, just a different box style. The auction winner lives in Austria, so this mystery box is going far away now.
