Callipygous Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 The utility carts like those mentioned by AlanD are the rarest carts. However, in my experience, the rare games like Flip Flop, Star Maze and Mr TNT, Espial, Matterhorn etc go for higher prices and the bidding is more competitive. My rarest? Maybe Drumesiser (utility) and Mr Do!'s Castle (game). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 I guess it would be the Expando-Vision carts. Not that they're really a game or anything. Besides those I guess itg would be my prototypes for Super Pac, Crystal Castles, and TLSF. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjk7382 Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 I think my rarest 8bit carts are James Bond 007 Spy Hunter Nothing rare at all, this thread sucks for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callipygous Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 Rob, Ones you'll get eventually ------------------------------- Attack of the Mutant Camels - HES (a tough one, though) Typo -Romox (these usually show up a couple times a year) Star Maze - Roklan (hmm 2 or 3 of these auctioned this year) Others ------- Spark Bugs -Romox Arrgh! Had to buy a big lot in order to get one with a damaged label. Flapper -Romox I reclassified this as ECPC, since no one has ever seen the label. Capture the Flag -Sirius (Have never seen) No one has seen it, so its off my list. NR Espial- Tigervision (owned at one time and sold ;o( Matterhorn- Tigervision (owned at one time and sold ;o( Yeah, yeah we know the whole story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattG/Snyper2099 Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 Bounty Bob strikes back and probably the next rarest I have is a complete peanut butter panic. I do own an atari writer prototype and a keystone kapers prototype though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robcatron Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 Ones you'll get eventually ------------------------------- Attack of the Mutant Camels - HES (a tough one, though) -- I have seen this one one time since my eBay days -- I went in together with someone on a super huge cartridge sale about a year ago (I think it went for about $500.00, and this is one of the ones I didn't get to keep ;o) Typo -Romox (these usually show up a couple times a year) Star Maze - Roklan (hmm 2 or 3 of these auctioned this year) -- I've seen this one several times this year, but I just hate plucking down the bucks for such a horrid educational title. I have it for the TI-99 and it isn't too motivating to pay big dollars for! Others ------- Spark Bugs -Romox Arrgh! Had to buy a big lot in order to get one with a damaged label. Flapper -Romox I reclassified this as ECPC, since no one has ever seen the label. Capture the Flag -Sirius (Have never seen) No one has seen it, so its off my list. NR Thank you for the information on the above titles! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geosteve Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 this sure seems like a good post to brag I just finished scanning my collection with my new xmas present, most of these carts I have owned since the mid/late 80's http://f2.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/geosteve_...ve_99/my_photos [/img][/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathtrappomegranate Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 My copies of Basic XL look very different from that one. Mine are orange plastic carts with yellow labels and black text and graphics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory DG Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 Wow, sounds like a lot of Bounty Bobs out there. Maybe it's not so rare afterall? Anyway, I got mine for free in a box of 30 other games when a co-worker/friend of mine gave me his old Atari 400. Woohoo! Free Bounty Bob Strikes Back!

emkay Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 Wow, sounds like a lot of Bounty Bobs out there. Maybe it's not so rare afterall? Anyway, I got mine for free in a box of 30 other games when a co-worker/friend of mine gave me his old Atari 400. Woohoo! Free Bounty Bob Strikes Back! I am still wondering that "Bounty Bob" is declared as a rare module... I still own 5 cartridges .... Donkey Kong, Journey to the Planets, E.T. , ATARI Artist and "Bounty Bob" Miner 2049er (originally manufactured in 1983) Is there a difference?

deathtrappomegranate Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 "Miner 2049er (starring Bounty Bob)" is not rare..."Bounty Bob Strikes Back" is harder to get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
