    I say it's legit. The guy is bidding on different Items from different sellers. Also he is from MA while the seller is from IL. It's still possible it's a shill, but I would say this is not the behavoir of a shill. Probably an inexperienced rookie.

     

     

    I have been buying for awhile. I think you will get it less than 120 :D

    There were too many around the same price. So I decided to put it on Ebay to be fair.

     

    I put it on Ebay now. It will show up shortly

    " It is really hard for me to determine any type of value for these games so I decided to put them up on Ebay to let the collectors supply and demand determine the value. "

     

    Must have some price in mind..since there is a reserve.. ;)

     

    Cool looking games though...

     

     

    I figured $30 / game was fair reserve.

    Well definitely these are pirate carts but they aren't anything retro. They are 100% from the Atari era. If we give value to Zellers style games, I can't see why we wouldn't consider these from another manufacturer Funvision. It's all part of the Atari history which I believe should be documented correctly if it is from that time period. :!:

     

     

    I also consider Brazilian games to be pirates and yet everyone here seems to want to collect and love them. :D

     

    It's also fun and interesting that there were other companies that collectors haven't heard producing NTSC games.

    Sly,

     

    This is very, very interesting.

     

    Especially the fact that they are NTSC.

     

    Some questions:

     

    Is it possible for you to scan them all?

     

    Time Warp is the one with the Berzerk label, right?

     

    Do all these titles have the Halleys Comet label underneath?

     

    What are the other titles you have?

     

     

    BTW: there is no such thing as a Funvision style case.

     

    As you can see, they also came in T-handle cartridges:

    Well as I find them I will scan them. I believe that it is the Halleys Comet label underneath with a bunch of Chinese symbols. These carts are not the slender Zellers style but have the "V" and fatter case at the bottom. You are right infact that these are the pirated titles just like the Zellers games.

     

    I actually bought them from two seperate sellers in Canada. One was on Ebay, the other was a private deal. I sold the boxed ones to Marco. They came in boxes similar to Zellers in blue and red but were generic.

    Hi,

     

    Since I am on the way to completely selling my Atari 2600 collection, I came across some very rare games that basically are not documented in the NTSC database on AA. I purchased an Atari 2600 Funvision system and several cartridges from a Canadian seller that I am yet to see any turn up on this website. They are produced by Funvision because there are underneath generic labels that say Funvision. Also I purchased the Funvision clone system which is also NTSC. I have seen a couple of the PAL Funvision system but I believe that I own the only known NTSC one. I am still trying to locate that system in storage. I reluctantly sold the boxed games to Marco but I have still come across some of the loose titles.

     

    These titles resemble the names, and artwork of Zellers, but come in a Funvision style case. These are infact NTSC because I have tested them. Most of the Funvision games that I knew of were only PAL format. Please look at the picture that I have provided. The titles are Grand Prize, Busy Police, Persian Gulf War, Treasure Hunting, Time Warp. I know I have about 6-8 more in storage. I posted this to generate discussion about adding these to the database. I would consider selling them to the right person.

     

    Any discussion or comments would be appreciated.
