Company that made no original games?

[Atariperson23]

OK, i'm trying to see which companies are true piraters that only, truly hack and rip-off games. That way, I won't fall for it. I already know that Froggo had two original games and Suntek one. So tell me, please, which companies produced no original games?

Yeah, Bit Corporation being behind this is not unreasonable. How else would the cartridges have broken English?

I think that all of the Zellers games were copies.  What makes this so interesting is that Zellers was a large department store chain with stores across Canada.

Your best bet is to download the spreadsheet from this thread:

It has all the games and companies, and it separates everything out by original games and hacks/clones/rebrands. Very easy to track, and a great sheet to track your collection in.

I believe Inca Gold is an exception among Zellers carts, an all original game.

Nope, it's just a rip off of Spider Maze.
