  1.  

    It wasn't sold cart only iirc, so you'd only get that if someone's lost the box and manual since.

     

     

     

    Correct.

     

    It was sold as a deluxe package with "gems" and "pins".

     

     

     

     

     

    There was a cart only that recently sold on ebay for $100. It's the only loose version I have ever seen offered.

  2. ^ There's dupes in there too... must be a combination of small dot versions and pokey enhanced?

    Correct- I am not sure exactly what the grey label version is. I got it in a lot that I bought when I first started collecting 7800. It is a very early version. I think it is dated 2009. The blue labels are the later and Pokey versions.

     

    The Jr.s are the same. The top one I got from a member here who was getting out of collecting. I could never get the cart to work. I cleaned it multiple times with no success. It is autographed by Bob so I really wanted to keep it. The seller refunded my money and said to keep it. The other is an AA store version that I bought that works.

    :-o They're all Pac-related, you do realize that Bob makes games other than Pac-Man ports, right? ;-)

    I guess I should have said “Bob D Pac-Man titles” I have many other titles that he had done. I probably have all but 2-3.

  4. Ok here is my Bob D collection so far.

     

    Loose carts. I have Marc O boxes for all of them except Baby obviously.

     

    Thanks PMP for making my 7800 collection amazing with some great games.

  5. Wow, iesposta!! That is crazy. Crazy in a cool way. - Although I think I might have just had a seizure. ;)

     

    sramirez2008 - That baby blue is beautiful.

     

     

    And here is a scan of my cart that I did for my CLZ database.

  6. Got home from a business trip in San Diego and picked up my mail at the UPS store and there was Baby Pac-Man. I popped it in and nothing. Tried it two or three times with either a black screen or just gibberish yellow vertical lines. The PCB didn't appear to be getting deep enough in the cart reader.

     

    I opened up the shell and tested just the PCB and it worked fine. So I put it back in the shell and tested it. And boom it worked fine. So it must have been jostled a little too much by USPS on it's way from FL.

     

    Thanks again. I look forward putting in some more on time on it. The shells turned out great.

  7. If it is an original Harmony acquired from AA/Harmony and in it's original shell the Encore is identified on the face label of the cart as an Encore. The regular Harmony cart just says Harmony.

     

    If it is a PCB only I don't know for sure sure if there is a way to tell. I am sure there is some else that can speak to this. But the obvious is that it is called out on the label.

  8. Sorry...maybe i was a bit harsh....the only reason,i stopped follow the thread,was that Baby Pac

    was finished....So i thought a cart offer would be in a new one.....never mind

    Again sorry.

     

    greetings Walter

    No worries. It’s very hard to read the emotion in this type of communication.

  9. You are such a clever guy ...i asked Bob for a cart,long

    time before the carts were offeted in this thread.So please

    save your comment,if you do not know the background

    Sorry, I wasn’t trying to be clever. I was simply answering your question about what you missed. You are correct I didn’t know you had a private deal with Bob. I thought you might have just made a post a few pages back like a lot of people did saying they wanted a cart but to make it fair to everyone he ran it the way he did. It appears to be all sorted out and you are getting your cart either way.

  10. Payment sent!

     

    Thanks Al and Bob!

     

    P.S. I didnt get glow-in-the-dark, but did get translucent. I think Ill put a LED inside. Anyone have advice as to pin / resistor values?

     

     

     

    Here is a LED resistor calculator: http://www.ohmslawcalculator.com/led-resistor-calculator

     

    And here are the tap points, that are most convenient.

     

     

    iesposta let me know how it goes. I got the other transparent copy. I might be interested in this mod also. ;)

  11. Payment....did i miss something?

    You know,i wanted a cart,but i thought that you send a PM,when it is ready???

     

     

     

    Yes, you missed the cart reservation post that was posted last week.

     

    PS. We all wanted carts. Some of us were in the right place at the right time and some weren't.

     

    Sorry.

     

    I know you know this but it will be available in the store.


  12. I totally agree. The price would probably be fine for Arcade Boards which seems to be primarily who they are making these for. But $40 for a cart you can still harvest a current Ballblazer for maybe $10 less if you are patient and lucky. But like what has already been stated Ballblazers and regular Pokeys are eventually gonna run out. It will be interesting to see how this shakes out for carts if they even are gonna work in a cart or the XM. Either way I have a couple of Pokeys that I have been saving for an XM or the next Pokey homebrew depending on how the XM deal shakes out.

  13. I am pretty sure I know who ended up winning this. I am sure he will let me know what he got once he has it in his hands and I'll share it here.

    He sent me the link as soon as he found it to ask me about it. We had a gentleman's agreement that I wouldn't bid against him.

  14. I miss the days when people would search for an answer. There have been about 5 threads about this in the past 30 days.
