BigDumer Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) @Morpheus - In an odd coincidence, I received a lot today with a French Canadian Sleeved Major League Baseball! Check out my post here: Here are a couple pictures: The lot also contained an 8920 manual for NBA Basketball which are the French-only, printed in Canada manuals that were added to these sleeved games before they started printing the dual language boxes. So this NBA Basketball was likely a sleeved version, but the sleeve has been lost. There are several collectors on AA that have significant collections of sleeved games. But I don't think anyone has all of them. There is speculation that all of the 19 original Intellivision games have sleeved versions. As far as I know, the ones that have been found are: ABPA Backgammon / Le Backgammom Auto Racing / La Course Automobile [NOTE: I've never seen a photo of this one] The Electric Company: Math Fun / Jouons Avec Les Chiffres Horse Racing / La Course de Chevaux Las Vegas Roulette / La Roulette de Las Vegas Major League Baseball / Le Baseball de la Ligue Majeure NASL Soccer / Le Soccer de la NASL NBA Basketball / Le Basketball NBA NHL Hockey / Le Hockey LNH PGA Golf / Le Golf PGA Space Battle / Combat de L'Espace U.S. Ski Team Skiing / Le Ski Of the remaining 19, Canadian printed 8920 manuals have been found for: Armor Battle Tennis Sea Battle Which leaves: Checkers Las Vegas Poker & Blackjack NFL Football Word Fun Poker was the pack-in for the original French Canadian console, so there is a good chance it didn't get the sleeve but it does have the 8920 manual. I got one of these pack-in versions today as well. I can see NFL Football MAYBE not getting one because of the need to translate the Playbooks. They did this for the regular French Canadian release, but that might have been difficult for the Sleeved release. I can see why Word Fun, a video game about English words would not get the French sleeved treatment. But, who knows.

I want to try adding modern video out but don't want to risk one of my existing working consoles so a backup repaired Intellivision will be the test subject. The sleeved Horse Racing sealed the deal.

Change of manufacturer? Production date? I can’t figure out, would you have an idea? Change in FCC certification requirements.

It's not a question of mis-translation or free translation, it's a question of marketing picking a title they think will grab the customer in the relevant market. Marketing was very proud of its prowess in naming games; it changed Blackjack and Poker (which is still the cartridge title screen) into Las Vegas Poker and Blackjack, Powww! into Sharp Shot, Adventure into Advanced Dungeons and Dragons Cartridge, Minotaur into Treasure of Tarmin and Some of Theirs into Triple Action for the North American market. Moscowitz was especially proud of Mr. Basic Meets Bits N Bytes. There was some suggestion that B-17 Bomber be retitled Blitz auf London for the German market, but nothing ever came of it.
