There's a good reason: someone named Steve stuck that label on there; probably when he was 10 years old. I remember those stickers from the '80s; they came in different names, just like little license plates.

@Savethepast, can you get a better pic of the end label?

That's a super rare cartridge. Little known story, Imagic used to use child labor for manufacturing their cartridges. For about the first few weeks in operation they used stickers like that for quality control tags until someone came up with the idea to stamp "QC" and an id number on the PCB inside instead. I've got another rare one with crayon on it, another one with their limited edition garbage pail kids labels, and an additional one with cat piss from when they experimented with cats running the case stamping machine.

eBay that sucker.

[Jess Ragan]

Where do you think he got it from in the first place?

[Prodos8]

How can someone be so obtuse?

[+Random Terrain]

Is that cartridge floating in a big bowl of milk on the moon? Image . . . very . . . small. Need . . . better . . . telescope.

It's obvious what you need to do next: You need to track down Steve and give it back to him!

I have for sale this rare "Turmoil" label variation--I have heard that when game companies were going under, they used child labor to save on printing costs. I believe this is a rare example of this work and expert handwriting analysis has determined that the fine 20th Century Fox artist "Timmy" was responsible for this finely-preserved authentic end label. I was lucky enough to pick it up in a lot on eBay! Bidding starts at $100.00 for this AUTHENTIC "Timmy Turmoil." PAYPAL ONLY!

By the way, to answer your question is indeed SUPER rare. In fact, think you can safely assume it is the only one like that in world.*

 

*Of course, just because it's rare doesn't mean it's valuable. People often confuse rare with valuable....

[pangasinan]

Maybe he would be interested in trading with this really rare

prototype

My copy of Mouse Trap says "Joey M." on it in marker,and I believe my friend has a cart or two from the same Joey M.! (We shop at the same game store.)

I kind of like stuff like this,to tell you the truth. Adds a little character! We aren't baseball card collectors,we're game players! As long as it works and it isn't actually dirty,who cares?

[AtariRocks]

You'd better hope Steve doesn't post here.

[+Wonder007]

I WONDER if there is a ROM or EPROM in that cart?

[Dino]

I Know Steve and he sez he wants his cart back!

[homerwannabee]

Like Dauber said it is a cart with a plain sticker on it, nothing special. Sorry, about that.

That's no prototype.

 

That's the cheap label PAL Popeye:

May I add my one-of-a-kind Cosmic Ark label variation?

 

It is called "U.F.O. Scheiße" (UFO shit)

 

 

German version... Quelle perhaps ???

 

This is a good example, why videogames do NOT have to come into children´s hands.

 

They are evil ! (the children of course - not the games >:-)
