I've had this version of Pitfall for the 2600 for years, and I've never been able to get an educated/expert examination of it.
I had almost forgotten about it until now, so lets take a look at it.
Everything is normal. Normal case, normal label, normal software, EXCEPT for the board ... there seems to be an EEPROM (or IC) on it!
I looked at every single one of my other Activision games, and none of them (including another copy of Pitfall) have an IC/EEPROM on the board.
Any idea what this is all about? And most importantly, does it increase the value by a dollar or anything interesting?
Take a look:
NORMAL!
OMGWTF IC/EEPROM!?
