Whisper Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 Wow, good deal indeed! I wouldn't pass that one up myself either! By the way, the Sparker Gardon game was a Zellers-type pirate of Flash Gordon. Nice game by the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saikyo Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 Man thought you'd got an undocumented game there! oh well I think atariage might want a cart or box scan any way! also id like to look at the artwork (If any!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whisper Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 Here it is, a bit blurry but well visible. I really like the artwork Who says bootlegs are always crap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariDude Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Do you have any screen shots of the game? It might help with determining which game it came from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK WOMBLE Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Funny, thats the same label as zeller's earth attack !! Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saikyo Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 wonder why he is not in a space ship! Yeah artwork is kinda cool! it's a bootleg! it's an alternative name! [EDIT just looked Defender is the original Earth Attack! which means that Zellers published Flash Gardon too! as both game lables are the same! if im right you should come back with a defender screenie! that is if flash gardon is the same as well!] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogueleader Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Some of my best finds 'in the wild' were: Raft Rider (Rarity 5) $2 BMX Airmaster (Thee less rare one) $1 Xenophobe for 2600 (A 7!!) $2 An Atari Light Gun A Cosmic Command Controler I have found all my cartridges "In the wild' with the exception of the 5 I bought this weekend at Phillyclassic. And I have had at some points over 200 carts! I sell some of them occasionally just so I can find them again! My friend who seems infinately more lucky than me has also got all of his 'in the wild' and hass over 400 carts! Including: Crazy Climber ( for a dollar! Tooth Protectors (9!!) for a dollar! He got both at flea markets and I was there when he got Crazy Climber. We were just grabbing games at the time and did not know what he had till we got home and looked it up.

Whisper Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Do you have any screen shots of the game? It might help with determining which game it came from. It IS Flash Gordon, I checked with the screenshots on AtariAge.com and definately not Defender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariDude Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 OK. The artwork is really nice on the cartridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saikyo Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Ok then that means that you have found a new Flash Gordon pirate cart! Get Atariage to add it to the database! Well Done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saikyo Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 BTW Tooth Protectors for $1! thats like sale of the century or what! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whisper Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Ok then that means that you have found a new Flash Gordon pirate cart! Get Atariage to add it to the database! Well Done! I have more carts that still aren't in the AtariAge database. Mostly cheap PAL re-issues of well known games. For example, a white text label Subterranea by Imagic (in a standard Activision-type case) and a River Raid by Activision in a very cheap, soft, bendable plastic case that is impossible to fit into anything but my 2600 Jr. A. It is official though, but I guess it's from the last days of the 2600 as it came with a 2600 Jr. A and some more very late re-issues and a red label cart. I also have a white label Megamania (same type of label/case as Subterranea) and a black text label (same as Subterranea, only black) Frostbite. All from the later days of the 2600.
