Thanks for the heads up on GameKing.  I think I found their FB page.  I'll have to reach out and see if they still have it available.   I did see those recent ones on eBay, but they've all had more condition issues than I'd like.   There was a nice one on eBay about a year back that sat there for quite a while and then disappeared just as I decided to pull the trigger on it.

Good luck with finding ,and securing a copy ..I will say this I have dealt with Jim the owner of the “The GameKing in the past ,for the big ticketed items that “The GameKing “sells one has to deal directly with Jim .If you call the store ,they will forward you to Jim ..

Looking to buy a CIB US copy of Magical Chase to finish off my Turbo set.  Must be in at least NM condition.  Drop me a DM if you have one you're looking to move. 

Thanks!

I saw several NTSC copies on eBay awhile back ..The “GameKing “out of Kentucky had a CIB copy for sale for $10K ..

I really don't wanna pay 2000 for one, I'm talking to a guy about getting one in good shape for 1300. Thanks for the heads up though, I appreciate it.

Lol ..No problem..And I don’t blame you $2000 is a little high for a “loose “FS2 ,even if it is minty ..

I'm not gonna argue with you anymore dude. I do not need to defend myself, as I am not in the wrong. There is no such thing as changing a trade after its done because of buyer's remorse. I did not get "greedy" I was only looking for what was promised, not extra. I showed all the information on the sites I posted it, and will happily show more to any one that wants the full story : ) . There is a reason you were kicked out of all the collecting FB groups. I only brought it to this site because you are flat out lying about the cart. You can't even be honest about that! I had a great collection before you and have just as great of one after the trade. Honestly I'm not even sure you have a collection, as before the trade you wouldn't even show curious-me pictures. 

You use a lot of words to say a whole lot of nothing. 

Lol ..Ok whatever ..I am more of a collector then you will ever be ,you are a  little kid that probably still lives with their mommy and daddy ..Everyone who knows me ,and has dealt with me knows what kind of collection I have ..Like I said before you have no leg to stand on ,peace dude !

Hey Everyone! I made an account just for this, I'm here just to say "NES CONNOISSEUR" is full of shit. I traded him the Mega Man 6 he has. It did NOT have a "standard late release label" like a game like Dinosaur Peak had. It had no label. He swapped it with a Bases Loaded 2 while doing the trade. I have picture evidence if anyone wants to see  . It did not come in a lot either, it came by itself from South America. It is definitely not mint, but not awful either, its a good average condition cartridge with some plastic cracks on the bottom. This was also NEVER officially released in the US, all carts were sent to SA and have South American backs. 

 

He never finished giving me all promised carts for the trade because he thinks he over traded, and is now trying to sell it to recoup costs. 

 

Trying to stop any lies being spread about this cart from a guy who cant even type variant 

Dude ,you are the one full of shit ..You want $4000 worth of stuff for a cart that is not even worth that amount ..Folks can ,and do change their minds about stuff .After doing some research I have come to the conclusion that I over paid ,but I did not even change my mind about our transaction until you made  an issue out of it ..I was going to let it go ,but you got greedy ..I had offered to trade back your cart ,which you declined ..I hope you know that because you are stating that the “transaction “was not completed technically  the items traded on both sides  still belong to the original owners ,any good lawyer would tell you that ..So therefore one or both of the parties can request a trade back ,I had offered to do that ..If I was not offering to trade back your cart that would be a different story ..So who is full of shit now ?Now I have folks telling me you did not even tell the complete truth on what went down ,or the subsequent conversation we had ..Just to make yourself look good ,when in all actuality you  make yourself look greedy ..I have shown several mods in other groups our text chat ,they all agree you conveniently left shit out to make yourself look good.. It’s not my problem you can  not afford the stuff I traded you ,so now you want an instant collection of rare NES games..Not on my dime !You sound like a cry baby dude ,really ! Grow Up !

It's going to take a long ass time, I'm trying to find gold ducktales with lunchbox and everything but there's only 150 in existence so I'm up shit creek without a paddle. But what's the fun in the hunt if you find it quickly.

There is one listed on eBay right now,with the lunch box for $6000 ..lol 

Just now, imabadguy1 said:

Thanks man and no prob. Good luck with the hunt!

Thanks ,you as well !

Oh yeah I got you covered. Go on mercado libre.br and type in mega man 6 nes or playtronic. I've seen a few of em and plenty of boxes, you can probably piece together a box and manual 

Ok thanks,I will definitely look out for you as well if I come across another Capcom valiant..

Yeye the big boys, hopefully one of these days I can find a good condition capcom mm6.

I am also looking for a Playtronic valiant MM6 as well ,do you know of where I can locate one ?

2 minutes ago, imabadguy1 said:

I wouldn't part with a good condition one either. It's so awesome 

Yeah ,these 3 NES items are the pinnacle of my collection..Especially my NWC cart..lol 

9 minutes ago, imabadguy1 said:

Oh I know, we've talked about it on another thread. It's pretty HOT

Other than my Grey NWC cart and my M82 demo unit ,this MM valiant is probably the only cart NES item that would not part with for any reason..

I do have a “loose “copy of the Capcom Label MM6  ..

It's definitely rarer but imagine this gross stinky beat up cart stinking up your other carts. Would rather hold out for a good condition one to be honest.

I hear you ,I got lucky with mine ..It is probably one of the better condition examples I have seen ..

12 minutes ago, imabadguy1 said:

I know, I used to have the Capcom Label version but it was in horrendous shape so I sold it. 

I think the Capcom valiant is rarer than the Playtronic valiant..

On 2/24/2021 at 3:39 PM, imabadguy1 said:

I have the playtronic one, here's some pics

Nice cart man .Although I have the “Capcom “Label one ,I do not have the Playtronic valiant.

Someone has one listed on eBay ,but they want a lot more than $1000 ..Good luck !

I would post a bounty BTW ..

Lol ..I know a guy at a flea market near my house that has a CIB copy he found at the same flea market 5 years ago for $4 ..He wants $750 for it ..The cart is “minty “,while the box and manual does have some noticeable wear ..

But thats only if the release date is accurate.  I think Nintendo implied  it would be out by Jan 1994 but that always isn't accurate.  Knowing what the real release date of the game would help a lot.

^^Yes ,that would help ..I have to do some digging to see if I can find any reliable information on when the game was actually released ,consistency in information from multiple sources would certainly help in that regard ..

The only thing about F2 being a blockbuster 'exclusive' is that the chip dates are considerably older than they should be for their release date.  I think the chip dates were VERY late 93, and the 'release date' (if accurate) is like august 94.  Could possibly be it was a rental only from Feb till Aug?  Really strange but the only thing I can think of why the date codes are so far off.  Usually its a month or two between chip production and release.

Lol ..^^I never thought of that before ,I will check the PCB on my copy of F2 when I get home ..That does seem strange about the chips ..
