+the1hatman Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Threads like this make me think. Now, our Piggy wasn't a CIB(ox) release. So my thinking may not really apply there. But hypothetically for a CIB release, that you missed out on - are people willing to shell out for a cart-only release after the fact? It's a hell of a lot easier to spit out 5-10 copies of a cart than it is to get the entire CIB works done. Presuming the author is willing, would people want this? Or would it just drive people crazy with another variant? Huh? Wasn't everyone's copy complete in box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freewheel Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 What? Is there a secret bootleg box that's going around? By now I suspect there's a bootleg box for the RF switch that came with the Intellivision. And to store the warranty card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+BBWW Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 I'll trade 1 for a NIB Turbo and throw in a NIB Super Cobra. Same for a Shrink Wrapped Blockade Runner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Games For Your Intellivision Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 I'll trade 1 for a NIB Turbo and throw in a NIB Super Cobra. Same for a Shrink Wrapped Blockade Runner. I'm fairly certain that Interphase games never were shrink wrapped. Anyone close to Hamilton, Ontario want to purchase a shrink wrapper cheap?

+BBWW Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 I've seen them both ways in photos, like some Activision Games were sold both shrink wrapped and not. Toys R Us around where I lived did a lot of wrapping of games so kids would put the carts in the pocket and leave the box. It is possible that they were a retail wrap. I know of two collectors that have shrink wrapped ones. I guess we need to get some photos. I think my Sewer Sam is a retail wrap because of the heavy bunched up seam at the top. As it was a Canadian game maybe I should defer to you on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
