SimonTemplar Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 I just found a cart called Sea Hawk . It has the typical Zellers label on it. Anyone else have this cart It`s not in the rarity guide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost Monkey Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 I've got it. I seem to remember a discussion about this not too long ago where it was stated that it won't go into the rarity guide until a Zellers box and instructions surface to prove its not just another Taiwanese pirate.

gambler172 Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 Hello i have Sea Hawk too.It was in a small box,not bigger than the cartridge and a Pac Man picture is on the box.I found it last year at the "ABBUC Jahreshauptversammlung in germany".The seller had only one.He told me,that it is from Brazil.I haver never seen this cartridge before. greetings Walter :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sku_u Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 There are two carts with Zellers type labels that I suspect are probably Zellers and not random taiwanese pirates: Sea Hawk and Scuba Diver. Both of these carts have labels specific to that cart only, rather than the generic labels found on many of the taiwanese Zellers style labels. I have Sea Hawk. It's NTSC and I bought it from a Canadian seller, which seems to suggest that it probably is Zellers and not generic. IIRC Sly stated that he had both Sea Hawk and Scuba Diver boxed. I'm not sure if he sent pictures of them to the Als or not. IMO Sea Hawk and Scuba Diver are on par with Inca Gold in terms of rarity.

SimonTemplar Posted May 2, 2004 Author Share Posted May 2, 2004 Yes, I also have scuba diver and inca gold and they are both NTSC, as well as Sea Hawk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennercanada Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 I picked up a copy of it too, yesterday here in Toronto, Canada at a flea market. Definitely a Zellers piece, with not even a reasonable doubt in my mind. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

video game addict Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Show me the box & I'll be a believer. Zellers didn't make the carts they only sold them thru their stores. But the only distinguishing characteristic on the box is the little Zellers price tag in the corner. The carts are identical to other Brazilian pirates, and most likely made by the same people who made Sea Hawk & some of the others Superman I think is one too. But until a box shows up with Zellers on it, there's no way to know for certain whether a loose cart is in fact a Zellers cart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari-Jess Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 But honestly, if most of the people who are finding these are Canadian I'd say its more than a safe bet to assume its Zellers. I bet if we did a check on "who has this cart" a large majority either are Canadian or got it from a Canadian. Boxes be damned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonTemplar Posted February 3, 2005 Author Share Posted February 3, 2005 I`ve seen this cart (Sea Hawk) a few more times in the wild around here ; Zellers carts are very common here. The most common ones are laser volley, challenge and Radar . Surprisingly I have never seen a Zellers box or manual and I suspect these carts were sold loose in many Zellers stores. The rarest Zellers game I think it is Farmer Dan, I only found it once in the wild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't done much research, but I have a copy of Gramd Prix, which looks like it could be a Zellers cart... I'll see if I can attach a picture of it... Has anyone heard or seen it's kind before??

sku_u Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 Has anyone heard or seen it's kind before?? I've seen and possess a bunch of these carts. They all have bizarre misspellings. My favorites are Reever Raad, Pete Fall and Bollek. Did you find that one in Canada or through Ebay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goatnad Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 To be honest with you I can't remember where I found it, But I'm sure it wasn't ebay... it was before my ebay days. I think it was at a local flea market here in Toronto, if not it was a thrift store. I think I had it about a year now, but only now do I have access to a scanner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until a box or sales sheet pops up, no one really knows. If you found it in Canada, chances are it came from Zellers, unless another retailer at the time was also selling Zellers style labelled games?

And to think, back in the day, my father bought most of the games we had either from Kmart or Zellers, I must have been somewhere between 2-6 years old, when he bought most of the games we had, but we never owned any of the crazy Zellers titles. Now that I think about it, we probably stayed away from those because they looked weird or cheap... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
