homerwannabee Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 A little while back I bought a sorcerer's apprentice the label was not that good but it was a game I did not have, when I went home I found a P on the end label and I have played it on my tv it scrolls!! so I look in atariage for pal games and I have come up with nothing. is this game rare?

Osmeroid Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 I'd regard the PAL version as very uncommon, probably about a 4 on the ol' AA scale of things but not really rare. Best person to ask for PAL rarities would be JobF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homerwannabee Posted November 5, 2003 Author Share Posted November 5, 2003 if its only a 4 how come atariage does not list it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBP Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 Sorcerers apprentice is a rarety 3 according to my data - 8 carts on British ebay in the last 6 months. Its the same rarety as Gravitar or Realsports Soccer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osmeroid Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 if its only a 4 how come atariage does not list it? The Al's are always updating the lists of games etc. but there are a lot of PAL releases that aren't listed or have incomplete data - the list of US/Canadian releases is enormous on it's own and that's just for the 2600! When you begin to throw in all of the European/Australian titles, you're looking at a huge amount of work and I guess should be regarded as a 'work in progress'. As for judging how scarce a game should be considered, that's at best a 'rough guide' by anyone's standards and trying to gauge the rarity of titles released 20+ years ago in different continents just adds to the difficulty. @IBP - I've seen more of this title recently (6 months or so) than in the previous 12-18 months before, that's why I'd personally place it as a 4 but a 3 sounds okay too. Perhaps other AA members around Europe/Australia might have a different feel for this one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyXB Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 Very common here in germany too. Only Rare is the Prototype (PAL), which I own from this game, but found no differents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
