Hi, after reading the new guide, I have a few points that could be useful to fill some gaps regarding some systems, if you are interested in the “import” market (I´m with Roloff on this one) . The market I´m talking about is Argentina.
Atari 2600 : We had two (perhaps more) brands of Atari 2600 carts . The legal one (I think) was called Edu Juegos . I have two carts from them: Super Futbol aka Championship Soccer and Super Tennis aka Tennis . Today, I opened Super Tennis and looked the chip inside...guess what I found:
94R64B-3022
C017480-07
1983 ATARI
8425 CJA
Taiwan
They built VCS clones, too… . my guess is they got the permission to produce clones and games from Skydata...only licensee of Atari equipment here in Argentina.
The second brand name is Artkaris. I have a few ones, as stated below:
- Carnival
- Donkey Jong Jr.
- Enduro
- H.E.R.O.
- Keystone Capers
- Megaforce 1 - Star Master - River Raid - Laser Gate - Sea Quest - Gorf – Enduro – Donkey Kong ( 8 in 1 )
- Megamania
- Moon Patrol - Smurf : Rescue in Gargamel´s Castle - Championship Soccer - Tennis ( 4 in 1 )
- Planet Patrol
- Pressure Cooker
- Real Sports Tennis - Real Sports Volleyball - Basketball – Boxing (4 in 1)
- Snoopy & The Red Baron
- Super Cobra
they got generic boxes with the same art in all of them.
Coleco Vision : Kenia Fueguina S.A. manufactured the Coleco under the CBS label and did the carts too.
Commodore 64: Drean manufactured all the Commodore 8 bit line ( 16, 64, 64C, 128)...well not the SX64 nor 64GS, under the label “Drean Commodore XX” beginning in 1984. As far as I know they didn´t release any cart but I could ask.
Pong Systems: I recently saw a Tele-match (without any number after the name) manufactured here.
CZ Spectrum: We got Spectrum clones too... the CZ Spectrum has two joysticks ports...this and others models were made by Czerweny.
I hope it helps.
