PII | 1,855 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 (edited) Here're shots of the circuit board for the Goonies II White Seal 5-Screw Cart. It's got that layout where one of the two main chips is rotated 90˚ rather than being inline - Not sure if that indicates anything or not. I've noticed some games have this variation in addition to the usual inline layout, R.C. Pro-Am, to name another real quick.. If I understand date codes, then the first two numbers are the year of release and the 2nd two indicate the week in that given year. Please correct me if that's incorrect.

Please correct me if that's incorrect. That is correct (at least for these date codes, other formats do exist). So the latest date code is 8928 or week 28 of 1989 on the far right chip.

bowser | 598 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 No way this -3 variant of Wayne Gretzky is rare. There were 3 sold in the past month on eBay and there's another active listing right now. What's the bet some poor sod with massive FOMO is going to go buy it immediately after seeing this post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the bet some poor sod with massive FOMO is going to go buy it immediately after seeing this post No its is not all that rare. This version represent 1/6 to 1/10 of the production of this game. (I am guessing 25-50 thousand copies) But I did get to complete my Gretzky trifecta, and I had to wait for these to show up on eBay to do it, (Which was brought on by a Facebook post in a collectors group no less. Thats why you saw three pop off at the same time on ebay.) 12 hours ago, ThePhleo said: It's not Tecmo NBA Basketball -N7 rare...but it's rare enough that the market can be cornered. I will have to look for one of those. I saw one for sale and I could not figure out why they wanted so much for it. (I'll find mine for 7 bucks in some back alley thrift store I bet.)

They’re out there and it was fun to finally find it cheaply! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOLs Gotta know your stuff boys. I can't remember if this was the first copy of the game that I had, but I picked this up years ago, along with the other two versions. Do you happen to know if there was ever a matching manual and box produced for this version? I've found manuals for the other two and photos of boxes of the other two versions, but never either for this one (which seems to be rarely talked about). Are the matching bits just that hard to find, or is this a case where they updated the game but just shipped whatever boxes and manuals they happened to have on hand?

I would find it hard to believe they're out there, because this variant doesn't really seem that rare. There are about 3-4 on eBay and mercari in recent sold listings, and a couple still fs for stupid prices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know that someone else who's gone looking has also failed to come up with evidence for matching accessories for this version.

ThePhleo | 2,179 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I’ve never seen one myself, but if one does exist then it’s easily one of the rarest major boxart revisions. It may be worth it to just buy up all the regular white jersey boxes and manuals, look at the date codes, and then compare them to the -3 cartridge date codes. If any line up then it’s basically confirmed that there is no matching box or manual. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
