How the heck rare is this, or Telesys games in General? How many games did they release for the 800? This is a great find, I didn't win the auction but it is beloved nonetheless. Definately needs a listing.

AFAIK, it's the only known copy.

So how is this so rare from such a productive company at the time? Could they have only test marketed their games for the A800 at the time? I think I saved the pic of the auction if anyone wants to see it. This will definately need to be added to the XE list in the database in the US games releases.

Telesys was once productive...but by that time they were dying a slow death.


Could they have only test marketed their games for the A800 at the time?It sure seems that way. The cartridge in the auction had a plain white label with simple black text, and it had a box but no instruction manual...it looked like a prototype or promotional copy, not something sold at retail.

Will this be added to the database?
