I just noticed a PAL version of Stadium Events (http://cgi.ebay.com/Family-Fun-Fitness-Stadium-Events-Nintendo-1987_W0QQitemZ170443461211QQcmdZViewItemQQptZVideo _Games_Games?hash=item27af38d25b) listed for $499. Is the PAL version even worth that much?

No, especially loose it's not even close. It's a lot more common than people would you to believe.

Heh...that's kinda what I was thinking. But you know that some poor unsuspecting person is going to bid on that, thinking that they've struck gold. If I hadn't had my doubts, I probably would've bought it!

Easiest way to tell is look for the B in the lower right hand corner of the label. If it's there, it's PAL. If it's not, then it's NTSC. There is also a difference in the seal of quality design as well.

Someone else probably saw the other that just ended for a few thousand. At least the seller is honest (somewhat), they do list in the pre-fill spot that it is pal. However they make no mention of this in the part of the listing they typed out. Also their photo doesn't get too much bigger when you click "enlarge", so if you didn't know you can hardly see the above mentioned "B".

An easier way to see the difference is that the title on the US version is written on one line, and two lines on the Euro version. I'm not sure about the boxes though.

A month or two ago there were 3-4 cart only PAL Stadium Events on eBay listed for $150-200 and those weren't going any where fast.
