FS/FO SNES Prototype Simpsons Bart's Nightmare

For prototypes, Wata claims to have a 'prototype label' shortage and admits that the protos are done and just being held up for that reason. Shouldn't they have more than one supplier?

Hi All, I have an authentic original prototype test cartridge. Tested and works great. I got this during my 25 years working in game production. As far as I can tell it is Beta or later. Asking $800 shipped within the U.S. PM me for questions or about international shipping.

Graded Games, Show Them Off!
oracleoflosangeles replied to jonebone's topic in Sealed & Graded Collecting
I worked at the publisher so that helped getting it authorized. The other helpful factor was that a collector, who knows the original artist, came forward and showed Wata some samples of the artwork, which was very gracious of him (I didn't ask he just did it as we've been talking awhile and he knew that I had this alternate cover submitted). Otherwise, yea, it would of been tough to get authentication, which I why I sent it in the first place. -
Hey Everyone! I joined at the end of last year and have enjoyed learning about collecting. I've actually been in game publishing since the late 80's until recently. I was interviewed in a podcast recently and gave a shout out to Videogamesage.com and all the great collectors I've met here. Thanks for having this site and I'm happy to be a part of it. So, Hello!

Graded Games, Show Them Off!
oracleoflosangeles replied to jonebone's topic in Sealed & Graded Collecting
These are some I got back at the end of April. They are already sold, fyi and the buyer is fine with me showing these items. They are 'mock up' boxes of games I worked on in the mid 90's, the last one is an 'alternate' cover that was rejected. -

Worked on games...lol that was the smart a** answer. I ran two different departments. I'm writing a book about my experiences in the game business over 25 + years. The SE chapter will be an interesting one, that I can promise you. -

Just got my first graded game back. Very happy with the score. I got this game while working at Square Enix. -
Hi Everyone! I've been producing games for over 25 years. Over that time span, I've come up with some pretty rare stuff. I'm finding out that college is expensive and I'm trying to raise money for it. I have a great working, ultra rare, wideboy for the N64. I used it to play eproms of various AGB titles through the N64 and onto the TV. This made it easier to see details of the game, take screen shots, recordings etc. Anyway, I've seen these on Ebay from 3k to 6k. I'm pricing this at 4k and open to offers but not trades. I have it on Ebay my id is chisajr and I would have 100% feedback but I got one negative from a guy who tried to scam me out of a working phone. Thanks!

I just got my first graded game back from Wata. It was a game, I picked up while working at SE. I was pleasantly surprised with the score ... -

WTB Instruction Deja Vu Hint Booklet View Advert Willing to pay $50 for a clean condition. Thanks! Advertiser oracleoflosangeles Date 01/06/2021 Price $50.00 Category WTB

I would send one to VGA and one to Wata. That way you can compare cost, grading, turn around time, case looks etc. I sent some games to Wata and had to email them to see if they got my games. They did respond (and it didn't take 4 days) but they should send a confirmation email automatically when our games are received (IMO).

Well, up until recently I didn't have a firm list of all my games. I just put them in tubs and kept them there as I didn't have a large enough place to display them. Over time, one tub turned into two, three, four etc. In just the past few weeks, I've gone through all the games (sorting what is sealed, CIB, missing items, eproms (prototypes) etc. and have been putting them in a spread sheet (along with systems, controllers etc). I'm still tweaking the list but when it is done, posting them here isn't a bad idea. Thanks Code Monkey! I appreciate your input and everyone else who has responded.

Drilled holes in sealed games
oracleoflosangeles replied to Gulag Joe's topic in Sealed & Graded Collecting
Hi All, So, they aren't all promos. When buying games through employee stores the games are often drilled. This is common with Sony and EA games but the games are absolutely no different than retail. I know, I worked in the industry and bought several games like these. Thanks!
