Ah yes, the mythical card case. I talked about that in the original post on this thread. I don't believe the card case was ever released. The Mattel link here shows a picture of the card case but the description on that page is actually for the fanny-pack style console case, which did get released and is available for purchase in new old stock condition here

Wow...a Spider-Man Booster Pack popped up for sale on eBay for the first time since I've been in the HyperScan scene (is there a HyperScan scene?) and it sold for $70 less than a day after it became available for purchase. Anyone here snag it? Not cheap, that's for sure.

Not I.

 

You know.. I haven't eBayed anything Hyperscan in a while. Hell, I still haven't even tried my console yet! I should get on that.

 

Been pushing it off.. and off.. and off.. in lieu of other gaming related items that are likely a lot more fun to experiment with. Life is short. :lolblue:

I don't even know if I own the actual Spiderman game yet, I have to check my "bag of Hyperscan oddities" I've picked up over the years.

 

I just checked some footage and Spiderman really looks to be the stand-out game on the platform with decent variety of missions. Some day I'd love for there to be a reemergence of interest in the system for homebrew uses, since the media can be burned onto standard CD-Rs.

It's sad because there used to be for some window of time. Even had dedicated forums to discussing and reverse engineering it, but now you'll just find a lot of invalid links and much of the content including the forums never managed to get properly archived for preservation.

Yeah, I agree that Spider-Man is probably the best game on the system. A reemergence of interest would definitely be cool; we shall see! Very much a shame about the lack of preservation over the years. ☹️
