Am I correct that Rom Collector's Collection is the most complete 1977-1992 collection there is? Does it have every released game and known prototype except the rare oddball like Red Sea Crossing? How many known games are NOT included in this collection?

As far as I know, if the ROM is available and unique, it's in Rom's collection.

I don't think he has the NTSC versions of Mission 3000 AD, Squirrel and some other PAL conversions that were actually released "back in the day". I guess these are technically considered pirate versions that generally came out of Brazil and such. However, because they are pirated into NTSC then I seek them out.

I have the NTSC carts but no dumper so I can't send the ROM to him.

I'll also buy and dump carts for him if someone would sell me a dumper.

I'd still like to get my obscure SQ:EW cart dumped. It has the PAL solution but is an NTSC cart....

I thought you were going to mail it to me to dump for you?

My collection also includes Old Era NTSC versions of PAL originals.

It's included in a seperate map.

Count the red smilies.

And of course all the post 1992 stuff (countless).
