    It clearly qualifies to be in the 125 "Club". The club was created for people who have all official released games CiB. That is the platinum level. There is no "variation" Level, so you do not need the rarest version of the game, just an official version. This release is official. Its from the owners of the trademark.

     

    So if you are currently at 124 go for it and feel complete. No need to think otherwise. And I am technically member of the 125 Platinum Club, pics are all online just never submitted to Rev, so its no wishful thinking to sneak in, its my honest opinion.

     

    Edit: And fun fact: The new release is probably much more rare than the original one :lol:

    Looks like a scam. First: 2 of 4 are officially opened despite the title, but the Computer Module, which is claimed to be unopened, seems opened as well. Look at the 5th picture. I would not spend more money as for normal used stuff and probably just stay away, because its very fishy.

    I doubt anyone would ever have felt the need to make a box if the game had been released with one in the first place.

     

    What the fuck? Are you blaming the publisher of the game right now? Dude :lol:

     

    To be honest: I doubt mjarnold made this box himself. He isnt a guy who does something, he just uses the work of others to resell it. So I guess he just bought this box, of course much cheaper, from someone else. And I am completely with BBWW. Its his game and you should just respect his wish in this case. I dont care if its legal or not, I am not a lawyer. But its just wrong, even if its maybe legal.

    Just check out the Ebay pics, they are much better to see what I am talking about. All the folded edges look really ugly, not as crisp as we used to see it from Intelligentvision or Revs releases.

    You can see it very well on the second picture, the edge looks like the cardboard is more broken then folded. The coating has flaws and is torn.

    I find the irony you made out of place. Piggy Bank wasn't made to criticize the cash grabbing attitude. It was a kind of funny reaction for the Blix incident

     

    You point out what I said. It was in a time when much heat was around, because the whole "new game" thing got out of control.

     

    @nanochess

     

    Havent played it enough, but first impression was not overwhelming. It got a lot hype out of the situation back then and even I voted it to the GotY, caused by my grieve towards Elektronite back then and the situation that my vote could lose them the GotY title. Pretty sad move from my side and even more sad if you look at the whole story and how it turned out.

     

    All in all its quite simple: The game came out long after the announced and paid games should have been released and somebody was bragging all over the place that he could get a GotY done in two weeks. Unfortunately thats everything he got done in all the years.

     

    So sorry, but I really can not celebrate this piece of software for anything else than beeing a piece of the dark past of the Intellivision-homebrews.

     

    Yeah, I definitely could sell it, but I wont do this for 30 bucks, because its the shizo situation I live in as a collector. 30 bucks seems not worth to get rid of a hard to come by game. So I just put it in the dark corner of my shelf, as a memorial to not follow every hype and be more critical about supporting some projects. And as some may know I am no reseller-Dude, so selling it with much profit is just not my way of collecting.

    I have everything, but I am not sure if Tattoos were included. To be honest, I I'd knew who the programmer was I never would have bought it. So its kind of the shame corner in my shelf. Its ironic that it was a game to criticize cash grabbing and was programmed by one of the biggest cash grappers the community had seen so far :lol:

     

    Edit: I checked it and its lust the cart, the bag, the small piece of paper and the lolly. No Tattos were included in my copy, because I am 100% sure I just opened the bag to take out the cart and closed it right away.

    I use spoilers, read at your own risk

     

     

    I am in the Iron Tower now. I dont know if its the end, because I got this mission from the snobbish mayor. But there is something on the map that looks like a small port, so I am excited if the Tower is the end or not. I really like how the Cowboy gets more desperate every time when he has no other choice then accept the mission :lol: I also found the Ninja to get the instant-detonation-modul.

    I got to play through 3 or 4 "warehouses" and it's very fun and intuitive. I was able to do everything with only a Sega Genesis pad and Bomberman skills really pay off in the game.

     

    I play it with the Arcade Stick from Grips.

     

    I really love the details, for example the shadows of the boxes which disappear when you blow them up. Or in the town the color change when the sprite walks under the shadow of the roof. And yeah, Bomberman Experience really helps to avoid the suicides :lol:

     

    I am very excited to see the other areas. And I will not spoil the experience, so its hard to tell much about the game, but I really recommend to get hands on it.

    I played the game a bit and just finished the first dungeon and it sucks... that no other game is even close to be this good. Honestly, I was hyped from a video and now playing the game it blows my mind even more. It looks like a NES game and it plays so awesome. I am not exaggerating, this game is pure gold. For me its BY FAR the best game I played on the Intellivision. It looks great, it sounds great, it plays great. Just perfect.

     

    Congratulations Kai Magazine, you came new into the scene and literally blow it up! And if you dont know it: I am noone who celebrates everything on this console or any homebrew. In fact my relationship to new releases is pretty messed up for years now, but your game is just amazing and a long time needed quality title. Of course there are other very good new games, but for me TNT Cowboy is a complete new theshold of quality.

     

    I enjoy the ROM and I am happy to get a CiB copy for my collection when its done. And congratulation to Elektronite as well, this is a real bomb!
