Mr. Gobler

[HFK]

I have searched all over here and Atarimania and can find nothing about this cart. Obviously it is a pirate of Pac Man but any idea from what company?

The V-Case style was used by a few different companies like Hi-Score / Action Hi-Tech, Funvision, Ultravision, etc... It is most likely would be categorized under Taiwan V-Case Standard on Atarimania as there are a lot of these that don't have a company name on them, but come from Taiwan.

They often reused the main labels for several games. The end labels are ususally weird names, sometimes spelled badly.

Definetly looks like the Pac Man listed there. Guess we know it was called Mr. Gobler now. All it says though is V-case, is the actual company that made these not known yet?

We now they made a lot of pirates. I think Jahfish might have found an address or something. They chose to be anomnyous, that's all. Bit Corp, Funvision or a few others are likely related. They released pirates in many different countries using V-Cases, generic Tawian cases, etc...

Finally, Mr. Gobler!

 

It was on my unfound titles list for years.

 

I'll add this one asap, HFK.

 

Many thanks!

 

BTW: that V-case Pac Man has a Pac Man end label, so that one is slightly different.
