+Psycho Stormtrooper- Rog Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 I received a bunch of games today and this one cart struck me as odd. Its a late intv style white label Hockey cart in box, no NHL logo. I have seen many white label carts, but this is the first time i noticed the "1979" in lower right corner. Is this normal? (Im directing this at Cmart...lol) I dont collect the white label carts so im unsure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDumer Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 It's listed on INTVFunhosue so it's a known variant: http://www.intvfunhouse.com/games/nhl.php I swear I often see this where the text is almost purple instead of black. Not sure if that is fading or an odd batch of ink due to the questionable quality control of Intellivision Inc. On an unrelated note...Psycho Stormtrooper is a real person and not just the name of the set of orphan overlays?!?!?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have something to do with the ink on that run of games. They all came from the same printer obviously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that, Hockey is a tougher Intellivision Inc game to find in general so there aren’t a ton of these around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Without doing an exhaustive check, I found a couple of other purple-tinted Intellivision Inc carts (Pinball and Bump 'n' Jump). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Psycho Stormtrooper- Rog Posted December 17, 2021 Author Share Posted December 17, 2021 (edited) Its so strange ( but historically significant) that they put the years on some labels ( of the white label carts). Its like they were letting the user know when the game was first released. I wonder if that was their intention or just a happy accident? I think thats pretty cool.
