question for the nes experts

[wrldstrman]

question the games akarnoid,stack up and miricale pianio were they sold by themselves in a single box or did they come with the acessories....ex arkanoid packaged with the vaus controller.

I know I've commented on it before, but have you ever thought about reading your own posts before post them? They're barely readable. Please, put some more effort into it.

Stack up came with the special blocks not the R.O.B.

Arkanoid as you stated came with the controller

Miracle piano came with the piano system thingy.

Miracle piano came with the piano system thingy.

And you could also get a Conversion Kit, which I actually think I saw in your collection , that came with the NES cartridge but not the keyboard.

I may be wrong, please correct me if I am, but werent you able to buy Arkanoid by itself without the controller? I thought it was sold both ways.


I could be wrong, like I said.

I'm pretty confident it was only released with the controller.  In all of my NES collecting days, I've never seen the game in a normal sized box, always the large box with the Vaust controller.

I agree,

I have never....ever seen a "normal" type box for Arknoid.I cleaned out an old video game store a few years ago and never saw one, and when I was a youngster, I cant recall seeing it packaged any other way.

You dont  dont see the big box either unless you stop by my place.

I thought Araknoid was sold without the controller, too.

i asked the same question on dp and it was pointed out that   mario/duck hunt only came with the console,  super spike volley ball/nintendo world cup only came in the sports set,..world class track meet came in the power pad set.  so from what was posted here and on dp..im lead to belive arkanoid only came in the larger box with the vaus controller.  miricale pianio came with the pianio or in the conversion kit  and stack up came with the rob parts and blocks

so at this point i guess there 6 games dont have regular boxes.I have no clue myself i have never seen regular boxes to any of the six

You could also add in the Racermate Challenge II cartridge, and the Dizzy the Adventurer Aladdin cartridge as far as accessories go  

As an interesting side note, even though SMB/DH didn't have a box in the US, it supposedly did see an individual release with its own box in Spain
