Well, that means you get Poison instead of Sid too.

They also changed the female characters for the US version of FF2, among a few other changes.

I am jealous.

Also, you should try out the Wii version of Haunted House. It is a really fun update of the 2600 original, and a used copy can be purchased from Gamestop for less than $4.

Is Math Gran Prix scarce or something? I figured most Atari-published titles were rather common, but I know very little about Atari 2600 collecting in general.

And holy crap I had no idea that Wii Haunted House even existed. Amazing.

Nevermind. I am not jealous. I just realized that I have that game. You can keep it! (Unless, of course, you have the coveted "Sears" version...)

[BoneSnapDeez]

No sorry this particular game does not come from a store that also sells lawnmowers, washing machines, and women's underwear. It's the vanilla Atari version.

Collecting the "Sears" versions of 2600 carts can be a lot of fun. (I am trying to acquire all of the Sears "picture label" games.) They are often much rarer than the Atari versions, but most sellers do not recognize their rarity. There are also a few games, such as Submarine Commander, that were only sold through Sears, and the "Sears" versions of many games features different artwork...including some of the sexiest cart labels of all time:

Blackjack!

Poker Plus!

Ooh, la la!!

Ooh, la la!!

Hotlink fail.

Always refresh after posting to check so it doesn't pull the cache copy people.

I'll probably forget in the next week now myself.

[prfsnl_gmr]

I did check. The pictures pull up just fine for me...
