Gregory DG Posted February 22, 2003 Share Posted February 22, 2003 I think the guy who won got a good deal, but I'm mad as a hornet for missing out on that Obelix rated at a 10! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...8&category=1250 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaManFan Posted February 22, 2003 Share Posted February 22, 2003 That looks like a damn nice lot. Even from a top label only view that Tapper looks beautiful, and as many NTSC games as are paired together you'd have to suspect the Obelix is one too. Wow.

CPUWIZ Posted February 22, 2003 Share Posted February 22, 2003 I don't think that Tapper is for the 2600. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one pictured in the auction didn't look like it had the "P" on it for PAL. Damn, I should have bid $156.57! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregory DG Posted March 10, 2003 Author Share Posted March 10, 2003 Here's that 10 I lost being sold now... (*I* would have kept it, not turn it around to make a profit!) http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...&category=21177 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory DG Posted March 10, 2003 Author Share Posted March 10, 2003 The good news is there is another (better) auction for the same game going on right now. This one has instructions. Guess we see more of these than my sniper thought, huh? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...4&category=3528 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Atari_Warlord Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 If you look at the manual in the picture it appears to have multiple languages, which would suggest it is PAL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mock Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 Guy says he played it in a regular Atari? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory DG Posted March 10, 2003 Author Share Posted March 10, 2003 Plus I don't see the "p" in the picture and the guy also says it doesn't have it. So, I'd guess it was the NTSC version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistah kurtz Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 As suggested in the other auction, the NTSC version was primarily distributed in Quebec, Canada, where bilingual packaging is legally required. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincYnoTi Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 obelix is one you have to be really careful with, especially if the seller says "don't know if it's pal or ntsc". that usually means it is PAL. no P on the end label isn't enough, sometimes PAL games have a square P sticker on the back of the cart...very easy to remove. multi-lingual instructions mean nothing. these were distributed in canada with NTSC games and in Europe with PAL games.
