Xante cartridge

[peachey777]

I recently just found this cartridge and I have no idea what it is. All I know is it fits in the Commodore 64 cartridge slot. The only markings it has are on the side. It says "Xante Tulsa Ok". Typing that into Google I found this article on Atari age of all places

It seems related to what the article is talking about. Does anyone know what this thing is? I posted on a Commodore 64 forum and so far no one knows, but since that search I did always brings up Atari results, I thought I would post here too.

Interesting. Does it say Xante on a sticker or something? Can you take a picture of it?

[peachey777]

It's not on a sticker, it's part of the cartridge. It also says the same thing on the other side. It's hard to see because it's all just black, but this picture isn't too bad.

can't find the info right now, but i think i remember that it was some kind of replay cart to save a game status ... or something similar.

 

i saw one boxed on ebay.de a year ago as someone was trying to sell this as a 2600 cart ...

I might not find out until to find out until I get the commodore up and running, but that sounds like it might be right

Why not just email the founder of the company?

Has anyone discovered anything on this cart? I only resurrect this thread because there is currently a similar cart on eBay.

FYI, these are regular old explode carts worth about $20 or so...

What are they used for? Tried searching but I think I'm going to get raided by the NSA if I keep looking up variations of "explode cart"

Don't carry that through a TSA checkpoint...
