Okay, so I must be really, really bored...you know all those little inserts that came with the games back in the day...the ads, warranty cards, etc.? Well, I figured since nobody else has, I would compile a list.  Almost all the stuff I've encountered has an item number similar to those on the games.  I figured with a list of what actually came with the games, those really anal-retentive people among us who want to get every last pamphlet can keep an eye out for them.  Best way to do this is to either PM or post the game you have, and any inserts you have, along with the item number for each.  Everything from the poster for the game to the Nintendo Power insert to the epilepsy warning sheet.  If the game is a variant, please note that in the title, as some variants had different inserts than the previous ones.  It may also end up that various print runs had different inserts...so if anyone has any information about how many runs of a particular title there are, please forward that too.  Remember, I want to know EVERY insert...posters, adverts, etcetera.

As a side note, I have two (so far) Nintendo adverts that don't have a code.  They're the only inserts (so far) that I have found without them.  I think they may have come with systems, so that info would be helpful as well.  If an item has no item number, just describe it as best you can (in these cases, the titles on the adverts).  No pics necessary, my comp wouldn't be able to handle that...unless you really don't know how to describe something.  I know this is going to take a long time, but hey, it's something to do...any help is greatly appreciated.

Wow........ hmm


Alot of my stuff has the original advertisement stuff. I dont know when I would ever have time to look through them Undecided

It's a great idea for someone with the extra time on thier hands though. But I honestly havent had time to even play games recently. I think if I had any free time, I would rather be playing the games Wink

Thanks guys...and Cap, how about if you go to play a game and it has the inserts, post the stuff here?  Don't have to go through everything, as alot of people have large collections.  Just get 'em as they come.  As I get more than a couple games here and there I'll just list what I still need.  And thanks for the link Tynstar, but I need the ID numbers for the project...although I would definitely have to add the Troll and the Monster...

Yup, I do.  Should be obvious what game it came with, but it looks better on the list when I put a list of part numbers.
