Spirantho Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Hi everybody, just wondering - what's the story behind this cart? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...item=3055377589 I don`t think I've seen labels like that Empire Strikes Back before (or not many anyway).. it's not on AtariGuide.com.

Room 34 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Looks like a Brazilian cart to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sku_u Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 It's probably a Polyvox cart from Brazil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophero Sly Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Wasn't there a 'Frogger' like this that came out of Canada recently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
video game addict Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Yep I believe CPU showed off a CIB one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Yep I believe CPU showed off a CIB one. They do exist and yes it came from Canada not Brazil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eckhard Stolberg Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 While CPUWIZ's cart might have come from Canada, the label clearly is German. It says "Weltbekannt durch Monopoly" under the Parker logo. This is what the official logo of Parker Germany looks like. It seems that the game in the UK ebay auction has the same logo. Also the cartridge case is the same as the one that Homevision used. I think Homevision is a from somewhere in Europe, so I suppose Parker Germany had some cartridges manufactured by them. Since Parker's PAL games had multi-language boxes and manuals, they probably were sold in the UK too. That doesn't explain how CPUWIZ's Frogger cart got to Canada though. Ciao, Eckhard Stolberg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Well on top of that it is from Canada, it's NTSC ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyXB Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 I think I have seen Pitfall with the same Lable style too. Not the standart Activision lable. Maybe too from Canada? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
