    Negative. As I posted, I haven't received mine yet. I had and still have no intention of selling it. I originally bought it to play it. I don't even know which kind of game it is yet.

    You buy games without knowing what kind of game it is? how many times have you been ripped off and bought a bad game?

     

    IT'S A $100 GAME! Do people not remember how much it cost? It just happened.

    $50 + Shipping isn't $100, even shipping to Canada and Europe isn't $50 per game.

     

    Dude. Come on. Please tell me you remember what the game cost, you just sold it a couple of months ago. It was $100. I don't want to send it back because I don't care about the money, I wanted an exclusive game. 1 in 100 exclusive, not 1 in 200. If you sell the other boxes I'm going to film me driving over the sealed game in my car 10 times and then post it on YouTube. When people ask me what the hell I'm doing I'll tell them the story, that's worth $100 to me. Hopefully the next time someone thinks about doing this they'll reconsider it.

    wahhhh!, destroy your copy, I dare you!....it'll be your loss and won't deter this from happening again at all. good job!

    Good point. And let us not forget all of the anti-Japanese rhetoric from the 80s during the Reagan years. There was a lot of vitriol about how Japanese cars were destroying Detroit, Japan owned most of New York, the massive trade deficit to Japan, buy USA and not Japanese, and how the Japanese really won WWII it just took 40 more years.

     

    No wonder they didn't put the Japanese cover art on video game boxes :D

     

     

     

    Obviously, Americans only want video game box art that looks like it was airbrushed on the side of a 1970s custom van. If it can't be airbrushed on the side of my van, I don't want it.

    I realize what the background is but at first it looked like a giant boob.

    You might stalk http://www.rfgeneration.com for their homebrew list. VGCollect seems to have someone who has my games too :) http://vgcollect.com/search/m.m.s.b.c.

    I did a bunch of submissions at rfgeneration. a lot of the homebrews that are there were added by me or I added additional info. They don't want submissions of hacks or reproductions even though there is a few in the homebrew section, so eventually I stopped....plus I submitted everything they needed from my collection. :)

    I'm not going to send you a link, but google "Hozer + Video" and you'll see his page.

     

    basically, Randy (Hozer) has made 2600 cart for a long time, the quality is generally not that great, especially compared to AtariAge quality. he was banned from AtariAge because he was making copies of homebrew games without authorization from the programmers. my understanding is that his attitude when confronted about it was "too bad, I can do what I want". There is probably more but I don't care to dig up the past more.

    I think you got Turbo (Hozer) wrong. it is not related to the Coleco game.

     

    Fixed that....I knew it wasn't the same too....for some reason I thought I fixed that before. :)

     

    I double checked my records there was actually 25 of each of game made.

    if you need a description of the games its in the instructions

     

    Fixed and added descriptions! :)

    That's pretty strange. They're images in my AtariAge gallery. Anyone else not seeing them? Have you tried completely reloading this topic?

    it's the label one for M.M.S.B.C. and Dead of Knight, i can see them but they don't load if I click to expand. I tried using firefox and chrome, my PC and laptop. I opened in a new page and it said I don't have permission to view the attachment.

    nice to see my two games listed.

    the carts of each wasn't numbered (if remember correctly there was 50 of each and both are sold out(I do have 4 carts left one set (2k3 and 88) and two '88's ,but I have decided not to sell those)

    and there are no plans for second run,but the 2k3 rom can be found on atari age under hacks, '88 rom is available via pm or e-mail to me.

    and people can ask al to make a custom cart as long the original labels and instructions are used(or can be used on emu or harmony cart).

    currently laserman'88 is being planned to be reworked on with more levels and more bombs thanks to the multisprite kernel (no date announced when I plan to rework it or reluanch it)

    Was there a Laserman 2K3 VGS Edition released as well?

    I'm pretty sure my game M.M.S.B.C. has been in cart form and is still available

    http://shopbitpop.com/

    http://atariage.com/...incinnati-done/

     

    Thanks!

     

    M.M.S.B.C. II was offered at least years ArcadeRX and is available as a ROM

    http://atariage.com/...6-mmsbc-2-done/

     

    Thanks again!

     

    Dead of Knight 2600 is in pre-release but is also intended as a cart release

    http://atariage.com/...mmers-for-hire/

    Atari2600Homebrew. is now live!

     

    I made this site to document the countless after-market games for the Atari 2600 produced in Cartridge form.

     

    I've pretty much exhausted my own records of information on these games, but I'm sure there is more games out there and I'm sure some of you have information that just isn't documented anywhere.

     

    I'm open to suggestions on the site and taking submissions and information on titles which have missing info/scans.

    Me personally, nothing more than the sticker and possibly manual. I don't look at boxes and if given the option don't buy one. I do demand the sticker be in good shape which is normal for homebrews and prefer that the end label be easy to read.

     

    As for boxes in general my understanding is that many here want the boxes to be the same size and shape as the original Atari design.

    I have to agree. I have several games with boxes but the boxes just end up in another box in storage rather than on display in my collection. I prefer just a cart & manual combo to save space and money. generally, I don't care if the cart lights up or is in a custom clear or colored case.

     

    from previous homebrew games, most people aren't too fond of clamshell cases, original atari styles are often expensive.

     

    as for the cartridge/manual, I much prefer a quality label/manual like you would find in the AA store or from CPUWIZ. I dislike folded pieces of regular paper manuals or labels that are obviously cut by hand (badly) or you can see part of previous label behind (looks bad)

     

    Generally, I don't push the issue though. it's up to the author's discretion how he/she wants to release their game.

    I've seen it twice (in 2 years) in Ottawa. I was great but there wasn't a lot changed the second time around, so I'll probably skip it a few years before seeing it again.

    I don't know about firing management but they were 100% right that there is still no games that are selling consoles for Wii U. those games should have been Day 1 games....period. even if Nintendo puts them all out in the next few months, the Console still has a rep of "no good games" and it will be years before that reputation is wiped...if ever.

    The Xbox one reversed the used game policy and the 24h check-ins. at this point, it's basically a PS4 with a mandatory camera....If you are interested in the XboxOne, wait....poor sales may drive MS to remove it.

     

    The Wii U (for me) just feels gimmicky, My brother has one and I honestly don't see the appeal. It's been out quite a while and there still isn't any good titles for it.

     

    The PS4, hasn't sold me either, usually I wait and see what games come out and read reviews but it's no contest this time.

     

    I'm content with what I have now, maybe next year I'll consider buying.
