Bump!

Just went through what I have and only found one. Bill and Ted from Price Chopper in Kansas City MO. Still has the same phone #, but I imagine the "Video Store" is gone.

I'd be interested to see the cart/manual of that MM6 when you get a chance.

Literally a Top 20 variant in terms of sheer rarity.

Congrats on finding it. Glad I told you about it

Does the fact that the cart exists with an oval seal also mean there is a box to match?

If so, then this is part of an "unconfirmed" variant on the Wata black box chart: 

Nice find!

The newly listed one on eBay sold hella quickly. By any chance anyone has a connect to a vendor selling the manual/box for this game? All I need for CIB.

Which one was that? I don't see any in completed listings.

I posted a photo of the box above.

It was also likely not printed when they added date codes to boxes and manuals, so there's no chance there's a date code. Only the chips on the cartridge will have date codes.

Darn - well, it would at least be nice to see a 2nd confirmed Rev-A box.

I also just noticed that @Ferris Bueller says his came with a box. Is it Rev-A? Two boxes would certainly cement this as legit and we could also check out the tab for the date code.

I do, came with a box. @guitarzombie Pretty sure I'm one of those three. It was mine and then someone else had two copies they found like one after another. Sound right?

You had one, then NESGangsta had one, and then I put my cart only up on auction on NA and NESGangsta bought it so he has two.

The member I sold the Cart/box to (2013/14?) in the picture still has it and is an active VGS member - they might be chiming in on this thread soon.

Beyond those 4 copies I have only seen one other - one with a badly ripped label in a lot on Ebay 6 or 7 years ago.

7/10 for me. I started with Army of Darkness, so it's tough to go back. I still haven't seen part 2, but I will some day.

Also, Ash vs. Evil Dead is really fantastic if you're are looking for a nice balance between horror and comedy.

Halloween is 3 weeks away. "Some day" is now!

Looks like 3 confirmed sales in the last month:

CIB - 1100

Very nice cart only from Brazil seller in a Facebook group I'm in -400

Trashed cart/cut box - $200?

Isn't there some way to see what a best offer listing sold for?

ya but what about the genesis games like the title reads rotfl

Some guy on Youtube opened a sealed Jungle Book - so looks like top label facing the opening.

Holy crap I remembered that VERY wrong.  Apologies there...my brain was thinking about the Zeldas in the following shot.  Should have cross referenced before commenting but was being lazy.

Sticker seal, Mattel branding? Must be Canadian, they do everything backwards up there, you might still be right!

Bump

I collect NES games with obscure rental store stickers.

If you have an Alaskan or Hawaiian rental store stickered NES game let me know. 

Price depends on the sticker quality and game title. I would imagine I would be willing to pay at least $10 over pricecharting, maybe more. Surprise me!

Hey @DK & @JVOSS 

Quick question: does your DMG-104CHN have an imprint in their label?
Because I just got one and it has none. I was just wondering if it's the case for every Tetris CHN label 

PS: My cartridge:

 

Correct me if I am wrong anyone, but I think all CHN carts don't have any number imprints on the labels.

Hi all, I’ve been following this discussion after I put up this game on eBay here in the UK. I had no idea it had so much value these things can surprise you. 

Did it end up selling? Do you have a listing link?

not to side track the post.  i have not been able to find any B&T outside of the US and according to your photos they have a NOE box...  Can you provide a pic of the back? or verify it is a "The Game LTD" box...

What is a Game LTD box?

There are 4 regional variations of B&T beyond USA: FRG, AUS, UKV and NOE.

Jeez man. There really is always someone with a worse obsession to be found. Hahaha thanks for sharing all these.

 

It looks mine is a slightly different variation or at least a mismatch. None of your sets with the German single sheet have the corrected logo.

Or maybe you just didn't show that one

I didn't take pictures of all of them, but two of my single sheet only have the corrected logo cart.

Finally picked up the bill and Ted corrected! Has anyone ever seen this version sold with the manual or box?  It looks like they just stuck a German translated manual insert in the box but it still has the US country code. I'm still waiting to get it in the mail to see what it looks like in closer detail. Interesting that there is also the US manual included. 

Any other examples of manuals like this?

Slightly embarrassed to say I have 7 of these, so maybe I can help. 

Before the official NOE release of the game they (who they is is not clear to me) took USA versions, slapped a sticker on the box and inserted a German manual.

There seem to be 3 variants of the German manual.

1. The single folded sheet you have

2. A photocopy of the NOE manual, but with a USA cover

3. A black and white NOE manual.

The date codes on 6 of the boxes I have are all 10709, one has a code of 10902. The official NOE release box has a code of 20319.

Oddly enough NOT all of them had the LJN logo error cart. 4 had the right logo, 3 had the error.

I DON'T know what image gose were but i guessing the non fco is on the left.

 

Yes that is correct. Glad I could help.

Only difference I see is the 33/35 numbers in the plastic.

@DK,  do you have the data on the two carts??

The insides?

I can help with that.
