What's in this box?

a.k.a "Get this out of my attic!"

 

I have a box full o' boxed software (some sealed!) that I always meant to make use of, but can no longer justify keeping around for mere aesthetic pleasure alone. My loss, however, can be your gain if you can identify the following eleven titles in this box.

 

Rules

 

1. Contestants must guess at the names of all eleven titles.

 

2. The first person to correctly guess the names of all the titles -- and posts them in this thread! -- will win.

 

3. The contest ends at 0000 on June 30, 2006 (MST)

 

4. If no one correctly guesses the names of all titles, the box will go to the contestant with the highest number of correct guesses (identified by the date of the post in this thread).

 

5. *NEW* Contestants may enter as many times as they wish, but ONLY once per day in order to give other contestants a chance at winning.

 

The titles

 

1. Cartridge, for Atari computers. Thorn Emi, 1982

 

"An all-action football-style game in your own home!"

 

2. Disk, Atari ST. Michtron, 1988

 

"offers tot-friendly features specifically designed to stimulate the development of young children"

 

3. Disk, Atari ST. Mirrorsoft, 1989

 

"Control either the imperial French or the Allied forces of Wellington in this dramatic and unique re-creation of the most famous battle in European history".

 

4. Atari CXL4013

 

5. Atari RX8057

 

6. Atari 8-bit disk. CBS, 1984

 

"Featuring Becca in outlaw cave!"

 

7. Amiga corp., 1983. (loose)

 

"Compatible with the Joyboard"

 

8. Intellivison No. 1123

 

9. Intellivision No. 1819

 

10. Intellivision

 

"shifty-eyed, computer controlled dealer plays intelligently!"

 

11. Intellivision No. 1683

 

And TWO bonus carts!

You originally posted that I had won after my first guess. If I was off by more than one title, I'm not sure that you even know what is in this box.

 

moycon - your guess tonight is the same as your last guess, what gives?

 

I added the word Mattel and NASL in case we had to be specific.

Hee! I'll admit that I did have to check a couple of times. Your first guess was, after all, so close, and I'd hoped that you wouldn't have seen my first (wrong) response. Sorry about that!

 

The winner is, as you've probably guessed, Moycon, who is the first contestant to correctly guess the names of all the titles in this mystery box. Congratulations! PM your address, and this box o' fun will be yours.

 

I'm also adding, as a bonus, a boxed copy of Alternate Reality: the City for the ST. Thanks for playing!

It's ok, just giving you sh*t :P It's awesome that you were being so generous and put up this contest in the first place.

 

Congrats Moycon, like I said some really great and unique titles in there.
