I have a sneaking suspicion No. 2 is DeusExMachina, but i have no proof...

Is this cart still a rarity 10?

Depends on if it is proven to be PAL or NTSC
PAL - NO
NTSC - YES

[pis]

So how many of these are proven to be NTSC then?

Loose? many more than 12...

I believe School_girl_in_a_short_dress sold his cart around November. I could ask him (yes, it's a "him") if you like. I have been to his house twice to buy games, once for the box/instructions to Crazy Climber and once for two sealed Adventurevision games.

homerwannabee, on Sun Mar 21, 2010 3:45 PM, said:

13. Tanman: cart,box?, and tray.

If you look closely at the photos he posted, there are actually four items there: the cartridge, the outer box, the inner cardstock insert, and a plastic vacuum-formed tray that fits into the cardstock insert and holds the cartridge.

[tyranthraxus]

Have you thought of adding the place of origin to the list or is what you have all that is known? It might help determine how wide a release the game got. I see a lot of Texas notes which is revealing but maybe the owners who bought off eBay might recall where the person they bought it from was located.

[Mayhem]

Someone's popped up on the 2600 forum saying they've got a copy too, will post his pics soon...

[White Knight]

homerwannabee, would I be able to put the list on www.men-a-vision.com? I will of course give you full recognition for the list.

Sure thing, I really don't mind, but you may want to ask the owners as well.

I just discovered all of this last night and am only up to page 45 so far of the Air Raid - eBay auction thread (Sheesh!!!), but in the first post of this thread you list list 17 owners of carts, and at the top state "That now makes 13!".

Maybe I'm stupid, but I don' get it - how does a list of 15, plus two potentials, equal 13? What am I missing?

What you are missing is that when the CIB game was discovered it was the 13th game. Then because of the publicity 2 more games were found. 13+2=15. Yes the post says March 21st, but I have been editing that post along the way. For instance I just edited that post yesterday to include the 15th one.

Thanks.

And for the record, I must have been tired when I wrote that post - I was actually up to approx. page 50 of the other thread I think - I got to this thread from a link in the other thread. Also, when I wrote above "in the first post of this thread", that was a mistake as well. You obviously didn't write that in the first post of this thread. I'm guessing you wrote it in whatever post I landed on after following the link from the other thread. But frankly, after reading most of the other thread from the very beginning last night, and then reading the remaining 15-17 pages this morning, I can't motivate myself to search the 3 pages of this thread to find your quote!

Still, thanks for explaining. I'm going to try and move my lazy butt from the computer now and see if I can get things accomplished around the house now!

I apparently found someone else. Posted in the other Air Raid thread:

Whoa! Now someone over at Audiokarma by the name of MeatInStereo is claiming his dad bought the game new for $1 when he was a kid! Here's the thread and here's his two posts on it. He seems legit, with 671 posts there.

AHHH!!! I had that game!!! Going to my moms house and looking for it tonight!!!!

Really only 12 of them made....My dad brought that game home from Gold Circle back when I was a kid for me after work....he paid a buck for it...

Not too sure if I want to put this one on the list. He has not even checked to see if he has it. For all we know it could of been thrown out years ago, or he is thinking about some other game.

Or somebody else may have bought it from his dads "garage sale" It happens to people, that is where my Micheal Jordan rookie card ended up

Nice list, sweet to see pedigrees as well

I have a silly ass suggestion:

How about splitting the list like so:

Air Raid Known Owners

Box/Insert/Tray/Cart

1 - Wonderman007 (pedigree)

Cart

2 - Name (pedigree)
and so on

I understand the list is probably in chronological order. Just a suggy.
