Pioneer4x4 Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Kinda odd, but they do say something about random game. They look like professional labels as well. If you look at history, some sold for $20+ http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5574883395&toolid=10001&campid=5336500554&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_nkw%3Datari%26_sacat%3D197%26_odkw%3D%26_osacat%3D197 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atari181 Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 This kind of aggregates me, as I think it is kind of deceptive. Buyer beware I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Dart Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Eh, he's upfront about the contents and the price isn't too bad. Would be cool to have a little shelf of a half-dozen atari carts with your favorite band's album cover art on 'em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari_Bill Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 This seller has been annoying me for some time now. It sucks trying to wade through his fake crap to find what you're looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its upfront for a collector of games yes, if you were a Madonna fan and bought the Madonna one thinking it was a real game. I'm not sure if non gamers/game collectors would easily understand.

Lentzquest Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 That Swamp Thing cart looks really cool. Just too bad it's not a good homebrew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If somebody's in the habit of impulse-buying anything with Madonna's face on it, well, they've just scored another item with Madonna's face on it.

moycon Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I can't imagine anyone without video game savvy buying an Atari 2600 game in 2012. I think custom Atari cart labels are cool and fun! As long as a person is upfront with a seller, I don't see any issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pioneer4x4 Posted May 10, 2012 Author Share Posted May 10, 2012 Yeah, I got a hit on a custom search, that is how I found them. Since the word "custom" is in the description, maybe I can exclude that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariLeaf Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I've often wondered what the best type of paper to use to print custom 2600 labels so they look as authentic as possible. I'd like to make some, not for sale, but just for personal fun and wonderment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
20ohm20 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 A Duran Duran 2600 game would have been interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
