CPUWIZ Posted September 17, 2003 Share Posted September 17, 2003 It's heavy and it looks like there is an inverter in it (from peeking through the bottom), I bet it's made with EPROM's. Kinda cool though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPUWIZ Posted September 17, 2003 Author Share Posted September 17, 2003 I have no idea, I've only seen this kind once before, it came from Canada in a regular Parker box with instructions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sku_u Posted September 17, 2003 Share Posted September 17, 2003 I have no idea, I've only seen this kind once before, it came from Canada in a regular Parker box with instructions. The label strongly reminds me of the Brazilian Parker Bros labels for the Odyssey 2. That is weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Atari Posted September 17, 2003 Share Posted September 17, 2003 Very weird, but it is a pretty cool collectable. I remember seeing a thread where a Frogger similar to that was from Germany, but I have no idea if that cart type is one and the same.

CPUWIZ Posted September 17, 2003 Author Share Posted September 17, 2003 This one is NTSC so I doubt it originally came from Germany. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eckhard Stolberg Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 The previous thread was about my Frogger cart. It's exactly the same as this one, and I bought it at a fleamarket here in Germany. If you look closely at the Parker logo, you'll see that it says "Weltbekannt durch Monopoly" below. That's the official logo of Parker Germany. If someone wanted to pirate Frogger, I doubt they would print this logo on the label. The cartridge shell is the same as for the Homevision games. Homevision obviously also made games for ITT Family Games. So I think maybe Parker Germany couldn't get enough carts from Parker's own factories during the hight of the Frogger craze and therefore ordered some carts from an outside manufacturer, like Homevision. Ciao, Eckhard Stolberg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
