CARTRIDGE STEALER

I made a simalar post the other day. theres a song out now that is called "tik-tok" and it sounds like super mario bros., of the same sound most NES music makes in thier games. exact rip off.

I think you misread. I was restating the differences that I mentioned before (that I purposely mentioned without specifics) in reply to another poster. I'm well aware of the differences. Or you could just look up sites like KLOV or Google and search for screens, so this wouldn't need to be resolved. If you did that before, you would know that it has a copyright date of 1986. things that make you go hmmmmmmm!

well, the best way to resolve this is to get a screen shot of the original opening screen with the copyright date on it.

Vs. SMB is not the exact same game as the NES SMB1 or the playchoice 10 SMB. It's similar, but it's harder than the NES version with some level differences, 200 coins for a 1up, and one of the levels replaced by a level from SMB2J aka Lost Levels. And that's different from most Arcade ports to consoles vs real arcade versions how? It was said in multiple posts from multiple posters that Vs. Super Mario Bros from 1986 was ported to the arcade (and it came out after SMB and either after or around the same time as SMB2J), so I don't see a point in asking this now. Why does it have to be different anyway? It was asked if Vs. SMB was the same game as the NES and Playchoice versions of the game, not if it was different from most arcade ports to consoles. As far as I know, the Playchoice version is the same as the NES one and doesn't have the differences in Vs. SMB. I don't see how this even matters, or how the conclusion was made that this was not known. Important differences like level differences (which includes the smaller platforms and subtle level changes), 200 coins, and the level replaced by a Lost Levels level were mentioned and since, the NES and, as far as I know, the Playchoice don't have this. Multiple sites list a 1986 date for Vs. SMB. SMB FC/NES was first released in 1985, so it's clear that the NES game came out first. in the desription i provided, it does say there are differences between the nes and arcade ports.

Vs. Super Mario Bros. (also known in promotional materials as Vs. Mario's Adventure), is nearly a separate game in its own right. This game, one of several games made for Nintendo's NES-based arcade cabinet, the Nintendo Vs. Unisystem (and its variant, the Nintendo Vs. Dualsystem), is based on Super Mario Bros., and has identical gameplay. The stages, however, are different; the early stages are subtly different, with small differences like the omission of 1-up mushrooms or other hidden items, narrower platforms and more dangerous enemies, but later stages are changed entirely. These changes have a net effect of making Vs. Super Mario Bros. much more difficult than the original Super Mario Bros. Many of these later, changed stages reappeared in the Japanese Super Mario Bros. 2.

Darren,You are wrong. I back up CARTRIDGE STEALER's statement about Super Mario Bros. being an arcade game. Super Mario Bros was an arcade game, but it was released after Super Mario Bros. was released on the Nes. My younger brother and I played Super Mario Bros. as an arcade game back around 1988 matter of fact. My younger brother and I played it at a Pizza Hut. Some Pizza Huts at the time a small amount of arcade cabinets. I played the arcade version of Super Mario Bros. in 1988 because I remembered my parents telling my younger brother and I play an arcade game while our pizza was being made. Yeah, id have to say SMB does not count since it was on the NES first, and a series of "VS" arcade were made from popular NES games. BTW, I miss when Pizza Hut had arcade machines!! Haha, I remember going there to redeem my bookit club personal pan pizza and play me some Mortal Kombat when I was in school. We dont know. there was a debate on which came out first, and it was never resolved. it may have come out after the NES or before. but nevertheless, it was an arcade game.

I actually was quite good at the arcade version because of the nes's version.

SUPER MARIO BROS.

wow! that has got mine beat!

we had the best mall. it sux ass now. I miss the 2 arcades in there. a couple of years ago, they tried reopening an arcade. it last a couple of years but now it went the way of the d0-d0! I find myself going out of my way to the fancier, roosevelt field now.

I emailed him and offered him $2.50 for it. this is his reply: ok how about this? i will sell it to you for $50? How does that sound? but keep in mind its for show it doesnt work, but you can fix it on ur expense if you want. 50 dollars sound good? let me know

you would think for that price it would that much! I work with a guy that had owned an original pac man and donkey kong stand up machine. he had it in storage for years but one day, he couldnt afford to keep the storage unit anymore and he said he threw them out. oh, the pain!!!

http://longisland.craigslist.org/tag/1651306965.html wow.....someone is on crack!

no, the add is not mine. I live in massapequa, once home to joey buttafucco, herru seinfeld and twisted sister. oh yea, the great all american burger! I am in nassau county. the poster is from suffolk county. Im old school. I dont post adds on craigs list, or newspapers or on telephone poles. I go out to garage sales and get my treasures. I do generic searches on craiglist for things and this one popped up and I read it and I could smell the bullshit through the computer!

nah, this wasnt me. I wanted people to draw thier own conclusions. this guy seems like he is trying to buy everyones collections, to add to his own. it doesnt seem like he just pulled it out of the attic because if he did, he wouldnt have asked for more consoles, controllers etc.

WANTED Nintendo nes (the original) video games, controllers and full systems. I just pulled my old Nintendo out of the closet and im looking to pick up some old games. Im not a dealer im just looking to see if anyone needs some extra cash and wants to sell me there unwanted games. Im also interested in full systems even if they no longer work. If the power button flashes or it doesnt turn on at all. I know how to fix them, so i would love them as well. I have also found my old Atari 2600. So i would be interested in any Atari games or consoles as well. I have had some good luck on Craigs list buying COMIC BOOKS so i figured i would try out games as well. I am also interested in Comic collections (even 90s and newer books) that most collectors have no interest in. But if you are selling comics of the last 20 years please dont expect big money. I will gladly buy any comics you may have. But most books from the last 20 years or so go for about 5 cents to on the very high side a $1. YES there are a few books worth more and i will pay a fair price for them if you have them. So if you have any Nintendo nes or Atari 2600 games/systems/controllers/power cords or comics. Please feel free to email me with what you have and what you are looking to get for them. Thanks P.S. im MOSTLY looking for Nintendo NES games and accesories (i need controllers). The Atari i need the power adaptor/tv hookup and any games. I have multiple controllers for the Atari But if you only want to sell a complete console i am open if the price is rite. Same gos for the NES i will buy full systems if the price is rite.

Nerd is a term often bearing a derogatory connotation or stereotype, that refers to a person who passionately pursues intellectual activities, esoteric knowledge, or other obscure interests that are age-inappropriate rather than engaging in more social or popular activities. Therefore, a nerd is often excluded from physical activity and considered a loner by peers, or will tend to associate with like-minded people. The word geek is a slang term, noting individuals as "a peculiar or otherwise odd person, especially one who is perceived to be overly obsessed with one or more things including those of intellectuality, electronics, etc."[1] Formerly, the term referred to a carnival performer often billed as a wild man whose act usually includes biting the head off a live chicken, bat, snake or bugs. The 1976 edition of the American Heritage Dictionary included only the definition regarding geek shows. This word comes from English dialect geek, geck: fool, freak; from Low German geck, from Middle Low German. The root geck still survives in Dutch gek: crazy, and in the Alsatian word Gickeleshut: geek's hat, used in carnivals.[2]

a nerd is a smart person whereas a geek, is someone that collects useless things.

This looks "staged", meaning that he (the seller) probably has friends helping him out with the bids. recently, my friends brother was hired to do demo work on the Gotti's boys tanning salon and the contractor took the sign and put it on ebay. my friend called me and told me about it and I did some promo'ing for it and it got up $1000. I called him, joking about my cut since I helped him. He said that his 2 brothers were bidding on it themselves to get the other into bidding it. aslo, I dont know if this auction has any credit card confirmation requirements because if not, anyone could bid on it with a fake account.

I also forgot to add that someone (not me) posted a bunch of anti posts on craigslist, advising people not to fall for the con artists. http://longisland.craigslist.org/search/sss?query=Stadium+Events+&catAbbreviation=sss&minAsk=min&maxAsk=max http://longisland.craigslist.org/vgm/1600631058.html http://longisland.craigslist.org/vgm/1599817326.html http://longisland.craigslist.org/vgm/1599608765.html
