pis Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 I just realised that my red label mouse trap cart is NTSC and that a PAL red label mouse trap isn´t listed here: http://www.atarimania.com/list_games_atari-2600-vcs-p_total-page-step-label_105-1-200-11_2_G.html But here: http://www.retroreview.com/paldatabase/Search.php?id=&SearchLabel=1&user=&label=3&SortBy=name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philflound Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 That's a poor scan. There's nothing to suggest it is PAL. Neither Rom nor I have confirmed a PAL red label mouse trap to exist. Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil No, im definently not sugesting it is PAL based on that scan. But someone who was involved in the pal raritylist projekt obviolusly thought that there were a PAL mouse trap, and i so desperetly wanted there to be a PAL redlabel mouse trap. The reson for that is becouse i got a mouse trap cart with a P sticker on it that i bought thinking it was PAL. But i tested it yeasterday after visiting atarimania and it is ofcourse NTSC. Why the f++k does someone in europe put a P sticker on a NTSC cart?! If it is some kind of scam, money sure wasent the motive behind it. Skål.

Philflound Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Usually red labels for the most part that are PAL have a -p after the part number on the main label. Atarimania is up on pretty much all PAL versions of games. If he doesn't have it, it most likely doesn't exist. Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones that dont have a p after the partnumber have a P sticker on the back of the cart, just like my mouse trap cart. Im pretty sure that if there were a PAL mouse trap it would be listed in atarimania. It was a stupid post, witsh is strange considering that drinking beer usally makes me smarter. Skål!

Rom Hunter Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 (edited) Not a stupid post at all. I still have some red and gray label variations left to add of which the format is still uncertain. Edited August 2, 2010 by Rom Hunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jahfish Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 (edited) i think that my mouse trap is PAL ... here are (most of) my red label carts. i bought basically all of these in germany: unfortunately the pic isn't sharp enough to recognise the serial # Edited August 2, 2010 by jahfish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a P sticker on the back of the cart but im pretty sure it is NTSC becouse i tested it on my old 70´s 50mh TV. I allso have bought games from german sellers on ebay more then once and gotten NTSC-carts, when the sellers has claimed the cart to be PAL. So you will never know for sure until you test it. Alot of carts being sold on ebay in european countries ar NTSC. Theres a swedish company that have 100´s of carts on sale on a auctionsite that are all NTSC, probably from some huge lot they got cheap on ebay.com. Kind of pisses me of sometimes, but that makes collecting PALcarts more challenging and fun to in a way. I remember a post from someone here on AA claiming to have a blacklabel atari cart with a P on the endlabel that rolled on his 50mh tv, i beleved him.

Philflound Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Jah, it doesn't look like your Mouse Trap has the P at the end of the part number. Man, I wish I could find more red label games. Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Far from all PAL red label carts have a p next to the partnumber. The ones that dont have that came with a small P sticker on the back of the cart. I think most PAL red label games has a labelvariation like that. Skål! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philflound Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 I don't see too many PAL games here in NJ. The only time is when I buy collections, usually online, maybe from Canada. I don't do hardly any overseas buying due to the cost of shipping. Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spirantho Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 You might want to ask YOK-dfa if he is able to check his Mouse Trap. He believe he has/had what he believe to be a PAL one.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YOK-dfa Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 (edited) You might want to ask YOK-dfa if he is able to check his Mouse Trap. He believe he has/had what he believe to be a PAL one.... I did, my red label Mouse Trap does not have a P in the productcode, but many of my red labels don't have one (I mainly collect PAL games and i can understand maybe one or two NTSC red labels slipping through, but not half of my red label collection). Interestingly, my Fatal Run is also missing the P in the productcode... BTW just noticed, but the picture of the cart mentioned in the first post is my card. If needed i can probably make a better scan. Edited August 6, 2010 by YOK-dfa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve also been hunting for a PAL Atari red label Mouse Trap, but each cart I’ve bought here in the Netherlands turned out to be a NTSC version. I guess this was just a big f-up by Atari at the time when QC wasn’t part of the process anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
