Atari2600Lives Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 Wow and we were amazed by the $935.00 Quadrun package! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...1379310149&rd=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2.6*10^3 Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 I saw that a minute ago and was just coming over to post about that, looks like you beat me. WOW, anyone know what the record price for a 2600 cart on eBay is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubersaurus Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 didn't the proto say Alligator People on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 this thing may beat a magicard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROBERT Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 Hello fellow gamers: I have to believe that for that price, considering how cheesy the graphics look in the game link, that any 2600 collector is much better served buying several ultra-rares rather than this one. It looks even cheesier than...dare I say it...E.T. !!

Fretwobbler Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 What if you already have all those Ultra-rares? I think your outlook would be differant then. I wish I did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tizoc Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 didn't the proto say Alligator People on it? We'll here it is from Matt's Proto's site. $1400+ for this? Yeah, with Monopoly money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwh Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 Wow for $1400 I could buy 14 #9 rarity carts instead, but I will agree that if ya have everything already then getting these really rare items is all there is left. Downloading the ROM is so much cheaper.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyXB Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 Thats a standart price for not released Prototypes. I think Telepathy was near the same price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 didn't the proto say Alligator People on it? Yes the original one supposedly did (although I've never seen a picture of the actual case), but this is a different proto. There are two different versions now.

Mayhem Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 And it's been won by someone we know Tempest (punkoffgirl's boyfriend)... so we might actually get to see it... maybe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 I sure hope so. I know the high bidder, he shouldn't be opposed to having it dumped. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.Yancey Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 I think Telepathy was near the same price. I'd pay the "mad cash" if I could have the use of mental telepathy!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wberdan Posted September 14, 2002 Share Posted September 14, 2002 i personally won't be dumping this cartridge, and it will probably only be in my possesion a day. i am sure though, that the future owner will be dumping for the community. of course, i have been known to change my mind and hold onto things... in which case i would dump it. willie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Stilphen Posted September 14, 2002 Share Posted September 14, 2002 That would be great if someone could dump it. I'm curious to see how (if) it's different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted September 14, 2002 Share Posted September 14, 2002 That would be great if someone could dump it. I'm curious to see how (if) it's different. Yes, I'm also curious. We'd of course be happy to dump it for whoever ends up in possession of this proto. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wberdan Posted September 14, 2002 Share Posted September 14, 2002 gotcha- i'll keep you guys updated. willie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted September 14, 2002 Share Posted September 14, 2002 From what I was told, the Apes AI is different. They move around and don't all appear at once. Sounds like a later version to me. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted September 14, 2002 Share Posted September 14, 2002 Hehe, I betcha Willie is not gonna keep it, he is going to trade it for some mad Coleco rarity. Somehow my feeling is that this is not 1 bit different from the dump that already exists. That's the reason why I didn't bid on it in the first place.

Stella'sGhost Posted September 14, 2002 Share Posted September 14, 2002 I just had a scary thought, what if it really is Alligator People all along???? What if Matt has got it all wrong?! Theres only one man who can solve this, Mr. Charlton Heston himself. Anyone got his email? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyranthraxus Posted September 14, 2002 Share Posted September 14, 2002 1400 is not too surprising. POTA is a cult movie series, I'm sure there were collectors of sci-fi stuff who put bids in. Also since the proto is mostly complete it would be more valuable IMHO. After viewing that link about the game, I think it looks pretty cool. Too bad it was never released.

I already stated the game is different than the dumped version.I have 2 protos of the POTA and they are both different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
