PII | 1,845 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 (edited) @FireHazard51 The long label on the back of a Yoshi Cart is normal. Yoshi came out in 1992. It's typical for later releases to have the longer label on back. As for Mega Man 4, I presume you're referring to the odd placement of the "NES-4V-USA" up at the top right of the label. This is also normal for mega man 4. The exact placement varies between - right on the edge, more on top, more on the front but they are all like that.

But I'm SUPER interested in collecting variants/error products now. Now every game I come across I'll be look it over like crazy be thinking, "Maybe this isn't normal.....better buy it and then ask VGS" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NES is a lifelong hunt for variant hunters. Good luck! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormarov.45 | 32 Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 So I need an opinion.... How rare are the Tiger-Heli 5 screw carts or the Urban Champion 3 Screw carts? Because I bought all of the online ones. (4) and (3) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re not bad to have for trade bait and some people will pay a small premium. I checked and noticed I don’t have a 3 screw UC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Code Monkey | 2,002 Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 What's the deal with this King Of Kings box? Everything I see online is a different black box, this one is brown. Is it fake? I've had it for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the few “accepted“ unlicensed games with that major of a revision. Tengen Pac-Man comes to mind immediately as the only real analog, and yellow box Maxi-15, but that’s a Canadian variant. I guess you can count the sticker “competition” variants of the rarer color dreams games? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure which one is the original release, but both boxes are available on eBay right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the family version was first, didn't sell well, and then the camel art was the "action-packed" re-release artwork dolled out in a last ditch effort to scrounge up some sales.

ThePhleo | 2,179 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Hey @Hybrid The Konami/Ultra things are beginning to gain steam in the higher end spectrum of the hobby so I think it’s worth tracking whether or not the label has any sign of label lift. Also, someone said to me that the 5-screw Oddities all have Konami manufactured boards whereas the standard releases don’t. if there’s any validity to that then I think we have a solid way of tracking these things as legitimate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
