Skarrj Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 So a seller in my area claims to have an Atlantis 2 cart. From what I remember this was used in a contest or something. Every screenshot or cart pic I can find looks exactly like the original Imagic atlantis cart. How would one know if this was a true A2 cart? I think we can assume this guy is FOS, but who knows.

opeygon Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Here. Be sure to check out the videos. Especially the one on the bottom right. That video has been posted here before. I think it's pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deja-Q Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 What about the carts without picture label (silver with text)? Is there any way to identify Atlantis 2 or is the score font the only way to check? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any way to identify Atlantis 2 or is the score font the only way to check? Atlantis 2 has the "NIGHT SCENE" label. But the only way to get 100% sure is the score.

It supposedly weighs less also. No response from the seller, I doubt he respond after the question I asked about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rareusgold Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I do not believe there is any weight difference. If there is it is so small it is undectable on my scale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhd Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I love how you track the provenance (i.e. chain of ownership) for each cartridge; it reminds me of how art galleries document paintings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Army Of 2600 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I always thought Cosmic Ark was considered Atlantis II. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
