I bought two carts at a garage sale recently including the Flinstones cart. Not sure about the Flintstones cart. I tried looking for any info on it. I thought it might be a pirated cart, but saw the Konami sticker on the side. Any ideas?

I've got a Captain America and the Avengers cartridge that looks just like that, including the notch.

Flintstones was done by Taito anyway...

I have a boxed copy of that cart, and a legit boxed copy too. That is a bootleg for sure.

No idea what these Genesis bootlegs are worth. Does anybody actually collect them or are they just something to pick up cheap as a piece of interest?

Yeah I figured that, so it was weird to see the konami sticker.

I was also wondering if there is any market for pirate carts on the genesis.

Kitsune's copy (or perhaps was his)

Soon after, I bought a copy with the cart and case (no manual) on amazon (for like $8+ship :) ).
Judging by Kitsune's, I take it the back (of my copy) is not supposed to have some wavy water damage lines (though at the same time it does give a bit of "Flintstones" texture.)?
