pkosby Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Hello everyone, I have held on to my Atari collection for about 30 years now and it's time to start letting it go. I have two oddball items that I need help figuring out the value. I have Pizza Chef and Immies & Aggies on "Copy Carts" that are playable on NTSC systems. I know that this is extremely rare and can not find any info on NTSC versions of these games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Ragan Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) BWAAAA?! It'd be awesome if you wanted to dump these. I think they were supposed to be released by CommaVid, but I'm not certain. EDIT: Wait wait, they already exist as ROMs. Still, this looks like it might be worth a look for collectors.

Rom Hunter Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) CCE carts are NTSC. Is the ZiMag logo onscreen on your Copy Cart versions? Edited October 1, 2014 by Rom Hunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkosby Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 I'll check next week when I get a new 2600. Mine stopped working a few months ago. REALLY hope it's a Zimag logo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkosby Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 Either way, anyone know what these would be worth? I know the copy carts themselves are rare and the games are rare as well. Guessing that if they are from Zimag, they would be worth more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rom Hunter Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) The logo makes all the difference. If they do carry the ZiMAG logo, then my next question is: where are the carts you copied? Or didn't you copy them yourself back then? Edited October 1, 2014 by Rom Hunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkosby Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 I didn't copy them. My dad got them 30 years ago at some random flea market. He got them along with Prototypes of Off Your Rocker, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Halloween. There is a used game shop in San Antonio that I am checking with to see if they have a working Atari system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rom Hunter Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I see. Nice find indeed. Did you write that instruction cart (and the titles on the Copy Carts)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkosby Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 Nope. I was like 4 when my dad got them. He said that everything was like that when he bought them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rom Hunter Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Yes, the handwriting on that instruction cart and Copy Carts looks indeed like Jim Redd's handwriting. Interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pkosby Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 If that's the case, would that mean that it's not the Brazil version? I'm so lost right now.
