I was lookingover old posts and other lists and I have yet to find a list of what makes NES games "complete". The typical games come with an instruction manual, but how do you know what else comes with it?

Posters, maps, etc. - these are some of the things that I am talking about.

If anyone knows of such a list, it would be very helpful. If there isn't a list, does anyone have any idea on how I could find out that information?

Also, I have seen various agruments about exactly which Color Dreams/Bunch Games/Wisdom Tree NES games were released in Blue carts only, or Black carts only, or both. Does anyone have any definitive info on that topic?

Thanks for your help!

Well cant really help you and I dont think anyone has done something like that yet.

Hey if yer passionate about it maybe you can take up the call and start a database of pack ins.

Ill start you off with something not well known.

Space Shuttle Project for NES originally shipped with a small packet of Astronaut Ice Cream. I guess it has to have it to be "complete" then.

To me complete means game, manual, box,and any maps / posters included in box.

Things like catalogs, slip covers are marginal...

Those little Nintendo Power ads I feel can be overlooked.

Some games had styrofoam inserts and/ or warranty and questionaire cards...to the anal completist, I suppose those should be there, but I don't see those as vital either.

I'm not sure why this ended up in off topic, but let's give it a little
>>shuffle<< over to where it belongs!

The purpose for my post was only to find out what legitimate pack-ins come with what games. I could care less about the obvious - styrofoam, black plastic sleeves, postacards, etc. I only really cared about the posters, maps, and other items specific to the game.

If anyone has info relevant to that, rather than restating things that are obvious, I appreciate it.

If there isn't one out there, I have no problem compiling the data, but I don't have the info - hence my posting requesting that information.
