I hope it's not too much OT, but do the serious cartridge collectors here know if a cartridge version of Shamus: Case II by Synapse actually exists? It's in the manual but not listed on Atariage and I have never come across one (the latter not meaning much here in Europe). Thanks!

I'm certainly curious about #16. Is it a compendium or encyclopedia of Polish history?

 

Sorry for late answer. It's rather something like test/exam/trivia where is question asked and some dates as answers to choose from. One of them is right of course. :)

nope, Shamus II was never released on cartridge. That doesn't mean that someone like Sunmark didn't convert the disk image and add it to a collection cartridge.

Of course those weren't production cartridges, titles were pirated.

Shamus was one of my favorite games, it comes in 2 cartridge case versions. Grey and traditional red.

Thanks, I do. have the red version as it was my favourite single player game as well. Does the grey version lock up as well on XL/XEs unless you hold Start while booting?

it should as it's the same game just in a different shell..

I thought Synapse might have fixed that for a later release as I thought the grey carts came later than the red ones (which I find nicer). (Non-Atari carts - except maybe Thorn EMI - seem to be rare in Europe as they were most expensive and Imports were expensive enough already with shipping and VAT.

Thanks. It's such a shame that these had such a limited distribution in North America. I was only aware (barely) of these releases on tape (and later on disk) around 2001.
