Oh, no problem.  Sorry I didn't look or notice this sooner, ha! 🙂

I PMd Richard since he said he had the address, and since skinny is, erm, taking a "brief vacation" atm.  I don't mind to just send it along, or if I should check with him directly, I'll do that.  Either way is fine with me - I don't mind to pay the shipping on a single NES cart - that's very insignificant.

Anyway, it is entertaining for sure, all the sleuthing efforts above to narrow it down, hahaha!  

It appears I forgot to reply to your first message. Sorry about that!

I'm going to admit that after reviewing the list, The Case of the Missing Skinny Tetris is really getting to me.  I even checked the Tetris games in my library just in case I made a mistake.  I know I have a CIB copy so I have no clue where my shelf cart came from.  No "Skinny Grinny's Favorites" was on the back of it tho.

We can solve this! We just need everyone to say whether they saw the Tetris cart or definitely didn't. Or if they didn't notice, I guess. Or even better: if they took it, lol. It's not like we're going to be mad about it. Foochie says there was no Tetris in the box, so here's our window:

For the record, I do not recall seeing it.  But it could have been in there, I suppose.

No idea.  I definitely didn't take it though.

@Psychobear85 had said the box was in pretty rough shape and ol glovsie warmed  us about not tracking what we put in there better. I bet that dirty mail carrier has that damn tape and there’s nothing we can do about it. Lost forever.

Sorry guys, there may have been a Tetris cart in there, but I can't recall. It was three months ago, haha. I know for certain I didn't remove it though. Glad to see Mario Party 5 found a home, lol.

I did grab some junky lookin' nes games - sorry, I'll check when I get home.  If I have it I'll send to skinny free of charge.  I'll update.

I think @docile tapeworm gets the record for the number of quotes/users quoted in a single post hah! 🙂

I'm glad to hear arrived safely, so that it can be destroyed.  I probably should have just tossed in a bubble mailer ha 🤔

Anyway, funny to think about the path this one cart took. 

Also, I'll share here --- I still have some other leftovers from the box, that I'm happy to share to someone for free - if you could just pay shipping costs, I'd appreciate it.  Here is the batch:

I was going to toss this up in the freebies thread, but I'd like to offer it first to participants here.

Lol, Bases Loaded really just says JALECO on the top label??

Yes, and to me personally it's the second laziest Nintendo game labeling in existence.  The first are the Majesco SNES carts that are nothing but bold type face of the game name and red borders on the sticker.  Seriously, they are one step below "Hello, my name is CASTLEVANIA".
