captianpattson Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Hello everyone! Would anyone recognize this type of cartridge? I just picked it up in a lot of games recently. I haven't seen it in my travels , it kinda looks homemade but I was wondering if it might be a diagnostic cart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awhite2600 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Not a diagnostic cart. It's a pirate cart for running copies of games that are burned onto EPROM chips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captianpattson Posted February 13, 2019 Author Share Posted February 13, 2019 Awhite2600 thanks for the info! Piracy huh, I guess that's kinda cool. Is it of any particular value? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rom Hunter Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 (edited) Awhite2600 thanks for the info! Piracy huh, I guess that's kinda cool. Is it of any particular value? No, not really. But it's one of the oldest examples of video game piracy items. In that way it deserves a place in video game history: http://www.atarimania.com/game-atari-2600-vcs-eprom-reader-cart_28458.html Edited February 13, 2019 by Rom Hunter 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
