Title: Halloween - Atari 2600 Post by: Silv3r on July 13, 2015, 02:14:48 PM I found this listing for an Atari 2600 cart of Halloween which of course is an actual game. However the cover art doesn't match up to the scans on-site and the game studio listed on the art doesn't match up either.
Listing: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Halloween-Atari-2600-Game-Cartridge-Only-NOT-Complete-/231616502141?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35ed6b597d Game: [img width=500 height=439]http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/ODQzWDk2MA==/z/h~cAAOSwHnFVnQzU/$_12.JPG[/img] I'm probably wrong and it wouldn't at all surprise me, but is this just a variation or a re-release/unlicensed or what.

Just something to look out for when you see other rarer Atari carts pop up. :) If you are in the market for this game or TCM and have any questions regarding authenticating a cart, send me a PM. |
