Netto84 | 21 Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 I'm looking for help identifying the inserts for the original mega man 1-5 non players choice gameboy games. I'm attempting to 100% complete all of the NA mega man games and I'm down to these as my holdout for this goal. I'm also trying to identify the inserts for gargoyles quest 2 on NES specifically the registration card. I see most copies with the CAP-NES-US-3 and some with a -2. I have a -2 with my copy but im trying to identify If earlier prints had this or is the registration card I have the wrong one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Code Monkey | 2,115 Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 What are the date codes on the box and manual? Let me know if you need help finding them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll let you know my box & manual date when I get home. But based on that it does look entirely possible that the reg card could be a -2. They transitioned near the end of the year & in 93 to the -3. Do you have a registration card with yours? Edited August 12, 2023 by Netto84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if it does, it's in pretty nice condition so I don't like to open it when unnecessary. I have this picture because I took photos of every date code at one point. I will have to pull it at one point to get a photo of the manual date though, not sure how that got missed in the great NES photothon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping I don't need to grab the other registration card to have this complete. I saw your thread about box dates and once I'm off work after this weekend I can try and make a large list of around 70 boxed NES games and manuals. But like you ill have to take everything out. All my inserts and manuals are in protective bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renmauzo | 1,205 Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 Hi Netto, I have a fully complete GQ2, and the reg card is a -3 and I have the same box code that Code Monkey showed. Let me know if you'd like a photo of the whole thing and I can do that for you :). I'll check the five Mega Man GB games as well, but I know 100% that MM5 is fully complete and can post that too for reference if you need. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like I'll be hunting a -3 reg card unfortunately. And thank you for your help. I attached a picture of mine for reference.

Renmauzo | 1,205 Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 (edited) Sure thing Here's the GQ2. Interesting that the one with your copy is one of the folded registration cards. ...and here's MM5. I checked the others and they are missing the ad inserts and any registration cards with the exception of MM4 which I do have the reg card for (CAP-DMG-USA). Hope it helps Edited August 12, 2023 by Renmauzo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll start checking the MM games next Yea either it could have been in these as first prints or the guy i got it from swapped that out. What threw me off is generally the -5 poster came with the -3 regi which gave me the initial doubt. The only folded registration cards were the original cap-nes-us and the -2. And the -2 retired sometime between June and November of 92. But the box is nearly mint with the shrink wrap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it helps Just making sure that regi card is a C-CAP-DMG-USA-1? And it looks like DMG-USA-1 on the consumer. Let me know if those are correct and the # on the other insert. I may be able to complete this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 'WHOA!' insert is GP-DMG-USA-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe 1 didn't have a registration card but did have a poster. The other 3 will be hard to complete because I think they had a registration card with each. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad I could help in even some small way I agree, completing 1-3 will be difficult; that's endgame territory for me, trying to get all the pieces for games not fully complete.

I'll get it done. Just hoping I can find some resources to make sure I get the right stuff. That mm5 regi was probably going to be the hardest one to find otherwise.

If so, that would make it much less common than its price suggests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason it's rarer is the same for mm5. It was near the end of the run of the NES. Same goes for ducktails 2, rescue rangers 2, and mighty final fight from capcom. The only one I don't get is snow bros being so expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other games like Battleship and Caesar's Palace were made after Gargoyle's Quest 2 and those games are $20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
