Pixelboy Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 PM sent for 5 games! Sounds great, I hope I am not too late... Nope, you're in, Tubu. Down to 3 available sets, with one other customer on the fence, so there may be actually only 2 sets left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coleconut Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Ok so we have Yellow Boxes and Silver boxes then we also have silver cart labels and gold labels. Were these mixed and matched or does one label variety belong to one box colour? Another question I have is that most of the games that pop up NOS are not shrinkwrapped but I bought a number of them from Telegames UK and when they arrived, some silver Mountain King were shrinkwrapped and others were not, what's you folks' experience with this?

Bartsfam Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 (edited) What's the history of Sunrise? Were these games previously published, and then Sunrise re-published them just prior to the crash? Did Sunrise develop these games? Just curious....

Pixelboy Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Quota reached! As of right now, this group purchase operation is definately closed, in North America at least. If no one steps forward to handle Europe, that'll be the end of that. Thanks to all who jumped on this bandwagon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Campaign '84, Gust Buster, Rolleroverture and Quest for Quintana Roo were released with a GOLD cart label only and originally in a YELLOW box and then later in a SILVER box. Mountain King was released with a SILVER cart label only as well as only a SILVER box. As far as shrinkwrapping... hard to say. EDIT: I stand corrected...

+Psionic Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Silver Label = Silver Box Gold Label = Yellow Box Well, that's pretty obvious, but it should also be noted that they don't always match. I've often seen silver boxes that contain gold label cartridges and vice-versa. Sunrise definitely did some mixing and matching with whatever extra pieces they had on hand.

Pixelboy Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 As I mentioned in the Marketplace, I have opened an extention of the group purchase deal for European participants. Games will be 28$US instead of 26$US, the extra two bucks will help in paying for shipping the second lot of Sunrise games from Italy to Belgium. Send me a PM if you are an interested individiual based somewhere in Europe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelboy Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 This group purchase is now closed. Many thanks to everyone who participated. I will be contacting Max (my friend in Italy) later today, and I will keep all participants informed as things move along. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phattyboombatty Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Received my Sunrise games today, and all I can say is, totally awesome!! Never fear of old decay or box rot. These games and their boxes are cuh-lean and pristine! Also wanted to note that I got a GOLD label Quintana Roo in a SILVER box. Bam!

+Yurkie Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I got my 5 Sunrise games. Thank You very much Luc! Mountain King was silver label, no box insert and single sheet instructions. The other 4 games are gold label with yellow instruction booklets and box inserts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gust Buster, Quest For Quintana Roo, Rolloverture, and Campaign '84 were all gold label carts w/ yellow manuals for me as well. The Mountain King cart is a different housing and doesn't have Sunrise embossed on the back. It's a shame that there is no tray for Mountain King, it just slops around loose in the box. Sunrise apparently got cheap on packaging toward the end. I am curious if other gray box titles with the Silver labels have the different housing without sunrise embossed and no tray insert. I would think this would have been be a real turn off from a consumer stand point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
