... that is the first time I've ever seen a NES cart that wasn't made by Nintendo.

This nine year old (!) thread at RF Generation mentions a bunch of European games that were like that.

Edit: I have finds, I just need to um, take pictures first. >_>

Double post time!

I went to search for things for the shop today and didn't get much of anything... until I visited a guy that sells things he buys from a specific seller who clears out his merchandise on Monday afternoon. I saw a box underneath a table and asked if it was taken, he said no. It had a ton of console demo discs! I grabbed these three for reselling (sorry!)



I paid and said "I wish I could take them all... I don't have much cash on me right now, maybe I'll have some money later in the week." And then the seller said "Well... I'll sell you the rest of the box for five bucks and you pay me later in the week. How's that sound?" Pretty fair, actually. So I left with way too many discs! I'm not sure ALL of them are here, not yet - but I figured I'd take a gamble.


Playstation Underground 2.2, 2.3 and 3.1
PS Interactive Sampler Disks 5 and 9
MLB 2001 Demo CD


Official Sega Dreamcast Magazine discs November 99, Volume 3, 4, 5, 6, and 9 (plus a sleeve for 7)
Generator Volume 1


About 25 different Official PlayStation Magazine discs (some have two or more discs)


14 Official PlayStation Magazine PS2 discs
PS2 Holiday 2004 Demo Disc
PS2 PlayStation Underground Demo Disc


Gamestation Tokyo Game Show 2000 two CD set (no idea what this is from)
Edit: Okay, it's a couple of Chinese VCDs with a bunch of trailers camera videos from TGS 2000. As in, they set up a tripod and recorded those from the monitors. There's even people walking in front of the camera...

And the thing that made the sale for me...

Demolition Racer: The Soundtrack. Sooooooooo 90s-tastic!

Oh and there was a loose The King of Fighters '97 Sega Saturn CD and a loose Need for Speed Underground 2 PS2 disc in there. Woo. I guess.

Fun fact: The address on one of those PS Underground sets is from New Jersey.

Later on during the NES lifespan Mattel distributed some NES consoles in the US. Bandai in France, Hyundai in South Korea. With that said, I've never heard of Acclaim doing this either. This would make sense if this was on the Famicom or something... but on NES? Definitely interesting piece you got there doafan.

Yesterday I had a talk with some people at a different forum and none of them wasn't able to tell me if the cartridge is original, where one of them told me that he need to check it out personally which was pretty stupid cause he ask me if there was any chance that I can send it to his address and then he will return it, so I want to believe that it's kinda rare, this weekend will check the rest of my cartridges to see if another one has this condition  :P

foxhack, about a month or two back a guy on a comic message board that I buy comics from sent me most of those demos. The PlayStation Underground ones are really cool as they have tons of game saves for various games loaded with cheats, in-game items, and exclusives.

I have gone back & forth so many times on whether or not to sell my complete set of DC mags (minus issue zero) and demo disks. Sometimes I feel like I hang onto them just to say I have them, and they'd be better served with a more serious DC collector than me.

became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the
desire to be very grown up.” ― C.S. Lewis

I just took a fast look but it seems that you are missing a lot of crap and am talking about the good one since wasn't able to see nothing from the NES, don't get the wrong idea I do love this console, it has a lot of awesome games but it also has a lot of crappy tiltes that will perfectly fit your taste  ;D
