Atari_Bill Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 In the middle of doing some reorg with new stuff I hadn't added to the shelves yet. I happened to see something I'd never noticed before. Anyone know why multiple companies used the same cartridge cases? Looking at the Fisher Price games, Wiz Math, & Quest for Quintana Roo, all have identical cases. Did they all use the same supplier? Just curious if this has been discussed before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+nanochess Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Just seen this. Only can remember the Fisher-Price games are blue and red. I need to give a look to my collection for the form factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelboy Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Yeah, I noticed this a few years ago. It was probably the result of a few phone calls back in the day, where a company would let another use his mold for manufacturing cart casings, instead of creating their own plastic injection mold. Anything to save on production costs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
