Dino Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Don't do it! You won't find out anything more - all's you'll end up doing is turning a $1.5k cart into a $50 cart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red 5 Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 I think ... and could be very wrong ... this: There is a controversy about Air Raid in a few areas. The first is that it is a PAL game and not NTSC. The second is that it is not a 'real' game, but a hack. From my limited knowledge, I think the only way to know for sure is to open it up and look. And from what I remember, nobody has ever actually done it. If he is going to open it up, we will finally have a lot of answers to a lot of questions. Of course, doing this will make the value shoot up or crash down. (But like I said, I could be way off with this...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigO Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 First off, I know nothing about Air Raid. So, why would opening it up destroy the value? The screw heads seem to be visible so it doesn't seem like be label damage would be the cause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What he seems to be planning on doing is going a step further and opening up the shield of the masked ROM. I guess Syllabus is the Evil Knievel of video game collectors because of the chance of ruining the chip by doing so. It's kind of like Pandora's box, some people have to take a look inside. For me personally I hope he does it and I hope it turns up information after all this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably would have picked up a $10 desoldering gun, but I think Sylabyss has probably already done the deed. At least the shield is easy to pull off.
