View Full Version : One Last Genesis Game (that I don't think exists)

A few weeks ago I asked around for someone to turn up a Barbie Vacation (Not Barbie Super Model) and an Itchy & Scratchy (not the Super NES one) for the Genesis. I've got ROM images for both games but to date have not seen any proof that they actually exist for Genesis. Super NES, yes. Mega-Drive, possibly. Beta versions, likely.
I've got one more.
Addams Family Values.
NOT The Addams Family, mind you. Addams FAMILY VALUES.
According to Half.com, it looks like this:

Come on, that doesn't even look like an authentic Genny box. And in my years of Genny hunting, I have NEVER seen this game. Again, I think it's been on my list due to hearsay; confusion over the Super NES game, and the existence of a ROM image. But I don't believe the game actually exists in cartridge format released for the Genesis.
Prove me wrong!

Yet another one I was waiting on. I just found Addams Family, but never seen Values. I'd think Values would be Puggsly's Scavenger Hunt, as it is was on the SNES.
And still negative on the other 2 from this end. What was the snort call on those two, and this one? He'd know better than anyone.

Yup, that picture is phony baloney. As fake as Pam Anderson's chest. (but not as well done) Check the genesiscollective website for a real pic. It looks like you're right DP - appears to have been a Sega Mega Drive game. ps - ever seen a Paperboy2 ?

Paperboy 2 was a definite Genesis US release - it even got the "cardboard box" re-release treatment.
Addams Family Values for US Genesis? Haven't ever seen one.

... none of which actually exist. This is why I do not trust second-hand information.
As I've said, prove it and I'll tip my hat to ya.

It was Megadrive only, and you can see it here from my collection: http://www.genesiscollective.com/ShowPage.php?GameLink=378

The man has spoken.
And thus, the database has changed.
Thanks, doc!
