Hey DPers,
I am putting on part 2 of a little (very little) contest about guessing the name of a Genesis game over on CAG. It was too complicated to run one contest on two boards plus DP already has the avatar contest so I did it over there. Anyone who wins gets games for free and shipping is also free to the U.S. Here's the link:

Aren't the odds pretty high that nobody will guess it correctly?

Yeah, this is a pretty ridiculously difficult contest. Cool idea, but it needs hints.

Well the only hint is that it's not sonic and kunckles or an ea game.

I've disassembled enough cartridges to know that it's post 1992. Probably 1993 or 94.

I guessed Madden '94. As often as I see Madden games in the wild, I'd have to say I have a pretty good shot. If there's a random Genesis game in a thrift store, there's about a one-third chance of it being a Madden title.

Yeah, you've got a pretty good shot at nothing. You do know that Madden '94 is one of the few games it CAN'T be, right?

Somebody on CAG guessed Mutant League Football. Oh well! Anyway, entries end tonight. I guess if no one guesses correctly I will either sweeten the pot and do it again or make a judgment call on who's closest.

Because it was in a long EA cart? I wasn't sure. Sports games (and their enthusiasts) mean so little to me, I never pay attention to them. So I wasn't sure if it was in a regular cart or an EA cart, it's just that I find a hell of a lot of them in the wild. I don't think I've even looked closely at a Madden cart, ever.

Oh man I was going to guess Mortal Kombat 2 just because it seems to be about the most common.

You were right (Mortal Kombat 3)!

Yeah, MKII was a big seller. I think I see more Sonic 2s than anything tho.

Could someone atleast post the question here for people who don't want to sign up for CAG to check it out. I look at CAG main site but don't really want to sign up for the forum. I know we won't be participating without signing up, but atleast we can view the question. Other than that there's really no point of this topic if you're going to just bump it just to say "next question is up."

It's just the picture of the back of a Genesis cart. All you have to do is guess what game it is.

This is really crazy, are you telling me NO ONE knows what this game is? Where are the DP experts?

I'll say it's Kid Chameleon since it looks identical to the one I have in the recesses of my Genesis collection.

How about Rings of Power?

Check the link I posted, the link from the first post is for part 1 that aleady finished. The cart for part 2 is an EA cart.

You didn't post the correct link to round 2, you edited your first post announcing part 2, but didn't change the link as it linked to part 1.
Anyways, my guess would be Mario Andretti Racing. I don't really pay attention to EA releases as they're mostly common sports games that I have no interest in(I only have a few EA carts).

My guess is: HAUNTING: Starring Poulterguy.
That was a pretty sweet game, and somewhat uncommon. It's the only Genny game I see at my local store that's higher than $4 (they want $15 for it!)
<edit!>
Whoops, I see they already guessed that.
Theme Park?

In that case, I'll go with NHLPA Hockey 93.

I have three games with that yello piece. All of them sports titles by EA. Fifa 96 Soccer, TNN Outdoors Bass Tournament '96 (A shitty game IMO), and College Fotball USA '97
