Which 2600 cartridge would you say has the most interesting end label?

The Coleco games have good ones... Venture maybe? Or maybe a misprint like Pole Posit'n?

Wow, that SLUCK label is a good one... Is the game something we'd recognize under a different name?

It seems like the games that are established "properties" generally get the best labels (most stylized, most colorful, etc). Pitfall! had a pretty standard end label, but by the time Pitfall 2 came out the label was a little fancier.

I'd include pictures but I'm posting from a phone. Anyway, I'm off to play SLUCK!

The end label for Tac-Scan is actually the main reason I bought it. It's a game made by Sega for the 2600. Not a bad game either.

The Spectravision/video games had nice end labels. Planet Patrol was cool.

Yes Sega games had good end labels. Star Trek looks good too even though it's the standard Star Trek font.

Skateboardin' is another good one. It looks like it was treated the way Pitfall 2 was, with the wrap-around label and the stylized logo.

And BURPER... Wow. I didn't know some of these titles existed.
