+OLD CS1 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Here's another crazy one... I have been watching this to see if it actually sells. I would be interested in it for $49.99 (I think it originally sold by Triton for around that price,) but rare or otherwise, it has no value to me at that price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted October 3, 2013 Author Share Posted October 3, 2013 ... it has no value to me at that price. I agree it's not even the improved Micro Pinball II. One can download Micro Pinball for FREE at: http://tigameshelf.net/asm.htm I just wish I could find a copy of MP2 for my Nano. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertLM78 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I don't know why anyone would buy a cart that you can download, unless you really want to have that particular cart in your collection, and have expendible income. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sometimes99er Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 (edited) Here's another nice one. Guess the price is okay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190886352319 And another nice one. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Texas-Instruments-TI-99-4a-TI99-Mechatronic-Extended-Basic-/331040540903 Edited October 11, 2013 by sometimes99er Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+OLD CS1 Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 OOO! That German one is pretty! Nice silver label! I have seen various post-TI releases of XB. They are the same, from what I understand, only the fact that they were after TI and sometimes in different cartridge form-factors makes them a novelty. None the less, I cannot see them worth any more than double the average going rate for a real TI kit, which has been around $22 for a complete kit.

kl99 Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Both XB (silver Mechatronic) and the XB from MicroPal are binary identical to the TI XB v1.1.There was however a gold Mechatronic XB2+ which had more memory and the Apesoft routines build in.For silver Mechatronic XB owners there was also an EPROM upgrade option to XB2+ which included an EPROM chip and a replacement cartridge label to make it gold.I saw it once in some italian or french broschure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted October 11, 2013 Author Share Posted October 11, 2013 I like the silver label. It makes me wonder, could a guy could go down to the local trophy shop or a screen print place and get a piece of brushed aluminum engraved or printed to install in the little recessed label area of a standard TI cartridge. Assuming of course that one is not a purist, but would rather have the cartridge match the console. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 Klaus, a goodly number of the Mechatronic silver label cartridges are really XB2+ cartridges in disguise. Mechatronic had a program where you could send in the cartrifge board for upgrade and they sent the uprated board back--but a lot of folks never changed out the labels. I have two or three silver-label modules in this category! Note also that the Exceltek Extended BASIC cartridge is also one of those binary-identical versions (there is a seller on eBay that has sold several of them over the last couple of months (and had something like 10 or so of them in total) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+OLD CS1 Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 The Funware and some of the DataBioTics carts are getting over $100. Around $500 in some cases. Really irritating for those who want to play and not just own "ultra uber rare" carts. But, that is the game, I suppose. I could just make my own carts with the available ROM images, or just put them on floppy for my own purposes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted November 1, 2013 Author Share Posted November 1, 2013 NOS - White TI Program Recorder It's starting to get a little rich for my blood, but I figured NEW TI program recorders do not become available every day. It would go great with a beige TI (if you are into matching accessories). If you want to check it out ----> CLICK HERE <---- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's real BIG case for just the NanoPEB... the sidecar for TI99 are very large... for the nanoPEB/CF7+ i think it's better to use a smaller box.
