I can be mistaken, but I think there is only the gatefold version of the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That actually brings up a potential list for another thread.... ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intymike Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 OK, thanks to all of you. It seems that the non gatefold version is, at least in Europe, much more rare than the gatefold version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will receive this sealed copy of Melody Blaster next week, but I can’t understand if it’s gatefold or not... What do you think guys ?

+JasonlikesINTV Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Ok, I'm pretty sure I have both versions of Melody Blaster. I bought the non-gatefold at PRGE, but apparently left it in a box and can't currently find it. Guess I'm going to be digging in the piles for the next few days. Did a lot of organizing today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MauAnouk2012 Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 (edited) Just for the convenience of consultation, I would like to include two pages of my very modest guide that I published some time ago on AA. About the ECS. ECS.pdf I am referring only to ECS Mattel Electronics, not Intellivision Inc.

The only ones I ever saw were in a private collection. Yes, lucky enough to snag a copy on eBay maybe 3 years ago. Since I finished my original release collection, Ive been hunting down specific variation sets. Working toward the entire Intellivision Inc set. I’m close if not already there. I can’t recall for sure. My latest focus has been to finish the FCTVVO set. Still need 2 of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+JasonlikesINTV Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Super Series is the last Intellivision Inc title I need (not including some of the subtle variants). Backgammon was really tough, especially the cart. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backgammon was really tough, especially the cart. Nice, been searching for that for years. A few years ago I lucked into a Super Series in a lot with 20 common games and a working sears system all for $100. The one and only time I've scored a rarity in the wild.

Backgammon was really tough, especially the cart. That Backgammon might be even rarer than Super Series. I think I’ve only seen the Backgammon for sale no more than a couple times. It’s weird how certain ordinary titles seem to be nearly impossible to find. Especially the boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humblejack Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 This brings back memories. I used to have 2 of them. The other one I had an extremely hard time finding was the Shrink Wrapped Roulette II. I still have this one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
