Carnival for intellivision. And believe i have seen looping too. I think they made these in a rush to comply with the canadian laws requiring bi lingual wording on products sold there.

I don’t recall ever seeing mouse trap as well in the white box nice. You should put together a list by title how many of these boxes you’ve seen over the years for Atari, Coleco and intellivision. Nothing is perfect but longtime collectors are the best resource for stuff like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am missing Surround and Hangman. I have only seen one Hangman and it was in an auction where you could only see the sides of the boxes. It was years ago and I could only bid a couple hundred bucks. Another AA member, Dino, won the auction. Still haunts me to this day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah you’re right you never see them sealed and rarely cib, it’s definitely a museum piece. I bought it off eBay yrs ago and didn’t realize it was sealed until I looked at it today. Personally I would buy sealed if I could than cib. Loose carts I didn’t care about unless they were super rare like air raid etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+stupus Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Yep, i have never seen 1 sealed. Cool While i appreciate sealed stuff and i like having some in my collection and i think most sealed stuff should stay sealed....i personally prefer a mint cib copy. I like being able to look at, play and verify the contents and the shrink is usually hard on the boxes structural integrity. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Combat Posted December 26, 2020 Author Share Posted December 26, 2020 I had one shrink wrap telegames that was squeezing my box like an anaconda. I had to open it to protect the box lol. I’m glad my sealed condor attack and others have been good no squeezing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Combat Posted December 27, 2020 Author Share Posted December 27, 2020 I might open a sealed dig dug maybe 50/50, but yeah sealed games that have historic value shouldn’t be opened. Maybe we can meet up at a game convention post COVID and have a couple beers and talk collecting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
