Hey y'all,

I am trying to put together a comprehensive listing of the different packaging types for the systems that have come out.

I don't know if this has already been done or not, but I think it would be fun to do (if someone hasn't already.)

I can think of many examples, but could always use help.

What I want to do is make a listing for each system, including packaging or bundles/exclusives.

Here's an example:

For SEGA Genesis, the first system (I believe) was the original system that came with an Altered Beast pack-in, which was represented on the box.

Later on, the Genesis II was offered in a "Lion King" exclusive set with that game.

The N64 released a special Donkey Kong set, a Pikachu set, etc....

Get the idea? I think it would be fun to those who like hardware variants.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Steve

Well, I don't know if I'm any help because I'm in Australia and I don't know if you're considering any PAL bundles, but this is what I know of:

SNES:
SNES + 2 controllers + Super Mario All-Stars (this is the pack I bought back in 1995!)
SNES + Nigel Mansell's World Championship Racing
SNES + Donkey Kong County 2
SNES + Yoshi's Island
SNES + Super International Cricket
SNES + Super Mario Kart

N64:
N64 + bonus controller (known as the 'N64 Clear Purple Twin Controller Pack')
N64 + Donkey Kong 64
N64 + SW: Episode 1 Racer + SW: Rogue Squadron
N64 + Pokemon Stadium + Transfer Pak + Pokemon Stadium Gameguide (this was also sold in the U.S.)

NES:
NES + 2 controllers + zapper gun + Super Mario Bros/Duck hunt cartridge.

That's all I can remember!

Check the classic posts forum, there's huge lists in there we started a few months ago.

Yes, a VERY full list already exists here:

Sorry Orrimarko! Seems like we're locking a lot of your stuff - topics are good but this one's already "in progress" so I ask that you pick it up there.
