JagMod Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 Does anyone have this label? Or a cart with this label on it? JagMod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atarifan49 Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 Never seen the label myself. What's the reason for asking? Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Saturn Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 I always thought it was the typical brand name label that some companies take pics of their consoles with. (I've seen Nintendo do the same thing) I don't have any idea if they're even real let alone available- or in a few lucky collectors' hands. I wish there was a resource to find out for sure.

Atari Smeghead Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 Oh, I'm sure it's just a fake marketing cartridge, created specifically for the photo. It's the same as the Jag CD pic that has that CD in it. Y'know, the one with the Cat's Eyes logo on it. I see that B&C sells the CD, BTW... JAGCAT CD ROM WITH CATS EYES. MADE BUY ATARI FOR $14.95 MARKETING?? NO SOUND NO GAME JUST EYES. I'm sure SOMEONE owns that cartridge... or it's still in a basement/warehouse somewhere. You could always ask Bruce at B&C. Ya never know what he might have in a box somewhere... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walter_J64bit Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 It might be a other Cybermorph Cart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 I agree that it's probably a one-off, fake marketing cartridge, and probably has been long destroyed. It was probably created explicitly for this shot. Either there were no production labels that they could use, or they didn't want to highlight any one game, so they used a "generic" cartridge. I'd be surprised if there's even a circuit board in the cart. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Saturn Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 I wonder if it would be cost efficient for someone to produce mock-up carts with this label? Minus the circuit boards and all, of course. I'd bag a few.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagMod Posted August 17, 2003 Author Share Posted August 17, 2003 Like someone posted, B&C has the CD version that was used in the ad shots. I've seen several different shots of the cart in ads. I don't expect there to be a game on the cart. It would be a nice collectable to have, that's all. JagMod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willard Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 I think that they use a jag brand label is to leave your imagination to which game it may be. I once had a chance to get a cart similar to the jaguar one for the genesis, but it's just a shell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrant Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 I have one of the CD's. Its weird... there is... something, on it. Its not audio, its not pc readable data, but looking at the surface you can see the shift in reflectivity where there is clearly data, and its a mastered disk, not a cdr. The weird thing is, several machines I've tried putting it into have behaved a little weirdly. The JagCD just shows the ? after a while and stops spinning it, my pc does the usual thing when reading a damaged cd (ie falls to its knees and crawls along like a snail on tranquilisers), but a friends cd walkman I put it into was hilarious, it kept spinning the disk, faster and faster hehe. Its probably just a quirk of that make of walkman, but it was funny to watch it going at such stupidly high speeds. I think something similar happened in another audio cd player, but I cant remember to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
