THIS THING WAS REAL?!
Forgive my outburst there, but back in my last year of junior high/first year of high school, when I was known as the "Atari Guy", one guy I knew told me about this thing that he had which let you change things around in a 2600 cartridge. I thought it sounded cool and asked him if I could borrow it to play around with several times, but he always refused, ultimately leading me to believe that he was full of shit - I think that he was the guy that also told me about the game G.I. Joe II: Smurf Massacre, which I never found any evidence of either. I never saw any evidence that one of these existed (and believe me, I searched for a few years), which furthered my belief.
But now, thanks to Joe posting this video, I can see that he wasn't full of shit after all. I'd be willing to bet this thing is pretty rare, but does anyone here own this? If so, can you give me a little info on it beyond what Al talks about in the video? It seems like an early, early, early Game Genie from the sound of things.
Hey, maybe this means G.I. Joe II: Smurf Massacre is floating around out there too...
