SMS "Mono Poly" Monopoly label. All this way?

Recommended Posts

I don't do much Sega Master System shopping ... at all. I found a Monopoly cart this afternoon, though, that caught my eye because it was labeled "Mono Poly." Did they all leave the factory this way, or did Sega catch the error and fix it in later runs?

 

Any idea of the relative scarcity of the two, if it was ever fixed?

I have both labels. I think the Mono Poly label is rarer, but I'm not sure.

 

The name really sounds strange when you put a space in it. Mono Poly.... Single Many... Odd...

Yes it does exist, and it's more than just the box that is affected by this spelling error.

It's just the first pressing of 50,000 copies that have the 'Mono Poly' label - these ones also contain a hidden credits screen that was nixed from later runs after Sega discovered it.
