Rarity 9 Stronghold boxed for the Atari 2600


Recommended Posts

 

It would almost certainly be NTSC. I have seen a few NTSC copies sell over the years, but I cannot remember the last time I saw a boxed PAL version of this for sale. If fact, I dont even think i have EVER seen a boxed PAL version for sale

 

I haven't either. Does Marco Have one? :ponder: :ponder:

I believe so, but there are fewer CIB PAL versions in collectors hands than CIB Video Lifes ;)

I seem to remember that Darth Vader had a boxed PAL Stronghold that he got from the CGE guys, which he sold when he got rid of his collection back in 2006. I could be mistaken.

Was he the one that tried to sell them on Ebay as NTSC?

IIRC, yes...but not intentionally. I believe he thought it was NTSC and it turned out to be PAL (when tested by the person he sold it to). I don't know what ever ended up happening with that one.

I remember that one, but I wasnt sure whether it turned out to be PAL or NTSC in the end. The box from memory was actually "NTSC", i.e. it didnt have the PAL sticker/s on it, and that led to some of the confusion. I've yet to see a "PAL" stronghold boxed version sell

Ah, PAL versions do sell, but you have to come to EuroCon to pick one up (with the lovely German Ariola sticker) :)

Marco

That's the sticker taht Darth Vader's didnt have

 

 

I'll have to check. I think I have PAL and NTSC for this one. I was thinking the PAL has a smaller rectangular sticker on the back. Not sure though. It could be another one of the Comma Vid games I am thinking of.
