I am new to the hobby but recently decided to collect from all the main consoles of the 80's. I started this as I have a teenage son who is into games as I was/am and thought it would be a cool father son thing to do. I recently ran across a storage unit for sale that was previously owned by an old game store that closed down in the mid. 90's that was just full of new and used console games. I thought this would be a great way to get the collection started so I bought it.
I came across a Colecovision Donkey Kong that I have never seen before. Most of the Donkey Kong games I have come across were in sealed boxes but I have a few CBS versions in clamshell cases and they are shrink wrapped. The case itself is RED and the label on the clamshell has a gray background. I have about 6 of these and one of them are in pretty rough shape while the rest are pretty nice. Does anyone know the deal on this box variation? Do I need to open the one that is in rough shape to inspect what is inside, will that help determine what it is?
I have heard it's Australian, A rental copy etc. but nobody knows for sure. Any help would be appreciated.
