gamer001001 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 i have 2 copys of burgertime. Both came out of an intellivision 2 console. Are these the rare gatefold editions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fushek Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Yep. Seeing the back is the easiest way to tell. If you have a purple border around the white/text area, it's a gatefold. The other version is all white. If you only see it from the front, there is noticeably more blank space above the title of Burgertime. Nice find. I opened my sealed one and it is the copy for my collection! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 The easiest way to identify the gatefold BurgerTime (if sealed and you can't open it) is by the colored border on the back. The non-gatefold back is all white with no border. Also, the left spine is smooth and the right spine has a lip (the part that opens). Non-gatefolds have both smooth spines since there is no front cover to open. Lastly, the gatefold is a taller box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freewheel Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 (edited) Isn't it obvious based on the fact that there's an obvious seam on the right side of the box, where it opens? I can tell that even from these pictures. This might be hard to tell from a smaller pic on say Ebay, but in hand it should be pretty noticeable, I'd have to think.

gamer001001 Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share Posted February 21, 2015 what are these gatefolds worth? the systems they came out of im selling seerate (all were missing controllers but have matching serial number boxes) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 (edited) The gatefold Burgertime is rarer than the non gatefold versions. Valuewise..... being sealed helps and condition matters. Possibly $20. $30 if really nice, maybe? Just my opinion. Yours looks pretty nice - only exception being that if the shrinkwrap is to tight it can warp the box, which is a big turnoff for me. It's not too bad on yours, but noticeable. I've seen way worse, though. Edited February 21, 2015 by JasonlikesINTV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+DZ-Jay Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I have a couple of gate-fold Burgertimes, but they are open. I didn't know they were rare, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 They aren't super rare, just rarer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stc2009 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 In Australia the gatefold was the far more common version. I think I still have one or two spare copies too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utopia Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 In Australia the gatefold was the far more common version. I think I still have one or two spare copies too. Same here with a couple of spares. Have never seen a version that is non gatefold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
