King Atari Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 1 hour ago, Mitch said: The 84 Joust box had a later version cart and manual in it. I can't remember now if it was 86 or 87. Given how few have survived I would guess only a handful of them were found and reused for the later release. Mitch Very interesting, thanks! Considering Corp's, erm, thriftiness, that makes sense, finding a 'normal' copy in the original box style. It's not like the kids getting these games back then would have cared much about that sort of thing, so why not use up what's already printed?
