Fox-1 / mnx Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Who has an original Matterhorn cartridge? I keep reading that 10 are known to exist!!!? Is it really necessary to open yet another topic about your hunt for a Matterhorn (and probably Espial) cart? It makes it look like your whole life depends on having those 2 carts. Just let it go and keep reading. Writing about these won't bring them to the surface any quicker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari8bitCarts Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 qix_manic, you never updated your own post with the very same information in which you were requesting. I happened upon your reply (with collection pic) to a post for cart storage and I do believe I see a Matterhorn (July 2011). http://www.atariage.com/forums/topic/165603-cartridge-storageprotector/page__st__25__hl__+protector?do=findComment&comment=2253093 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original post is dated 2011, those links are after (at least two out of the three). But nonetheless, the point (as lame as it was by me ) was that the poster didn't even let us know that he has one. :) Edited December 5, 2012 by chrislynn5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You probably already know this, but on ebay you can do a search for "matterhorn atari", and then save that search. Ebay will then email you anytime those keywords appear in an ebay listing. So it will constantly search for you. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, but in 7 years I've only seen one and it was listed at $1,500 or $3,000, it's been so long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamb2k5 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Being curious about the game, I loaded it into my Atari emulator today and it took me about 20 minutes to finally figure out how to start/play the game. In Atari800Win, the only way to play the game is with the mouse emulating a joystick ..... And it's kinda hard to control the guy with the mouse.

Atari8bitCarts Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Can you believe this eBay auction. The condition of this cart is extremely poor. It appears to have been left in a lake for some time. And the last Matterhorn that sold on eBay went for something around $800. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Matterhorn-HOLY-GRAIL-for-Atari-8-bit-Computers-400-800-XL-XE-ONLY-SEVEN-KNOWN-/111629975616?

bbking67 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I'm surprised B&C didn't burn a few eproms and get into the action with their fake cartridges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
