Is this very rare? Can ou tell us something about it? Why no box?
Also, I dont know if you noticed but I think Playstationgeneration made a few more SMS reproductions. Im sure there is a James Bond title aswell.
Well,it is the rarest Sega Mark 3 game, because it never was for sale,it was a contest prize.
That is what makes it rarer than other Mark 3 releases.
I sold one for 100-150€ last year.
Originally it came in a complete white carton box..you can do it yourself if you want,because there was not a single writing on it.
But it comes with instructions too..my copy has them,i'll make pics some day,probably when i'll make pics of my SMS fullset..
Of course,the price of the game with instruction and white box is twice the price of the loose cart.
Just out of Curiosity, would you concider departing with your Tec Toy exclusive titles or with the Mark 3 set?
No,absolutely not.
Here is a pic of the "white box" for Great Ice hockey:

I saw you said you were not interested in the Powerfest '94 because it is American. I own a game you definitely don't have and may want. It is a Japanese Super Famicom version of the 1992 Challenge. This was made for a special Japanese Competition. Unfortunately I don't know much about the competition itself, (if anyone knows anything about the competition please let me know.
You can view information about this cart at my website:

That's not SFC stuff.
It's just a "japan version" of your game,but not related to SFC.
A game with a start screen where is written "Super Nintendo"
Not a SINGLE SFC game has the Super nintendo logo on it or IN it.
I'm not interested in such stuff,not SFC related.
Like I said I don't know much about the competition that took place in Japan. This competition was originally held in the US and or Canada at colleges. They then put this into a Super Famicom casing and used it for a competition in Japan. The game is all in English, however it is in a Super Famicom cartridge and does not fit inside the SNES, just the Super Famicom. I would like to know more on the history of this game, so if anyone knows please fill us in. Thanks.

You can create your own history if you want,such competition never existed in Japan.
There would be reports in Famitsu (WEEKLY magazine!),and there were none.
Such thing never happene,it's just the very same thing you got in USA,except they modify the case,nothing more.
And it could fit in european SNES systems,it has the same size.
No special value to me,but if you find somebody ready to buy this,great.
I have no desire to create a false history, I just want to know the real history. Until last year I never heard of the 1992 Campus Challenge in the US, however it did happen. I understand you don't want this for your collection. It definitly was not an officiallay realsed game on any system.
I have been searching the internet to see if there was any reference to this competition being held in Japan. I did find this:
There was a European competition as well. It was likely very similar to the US competition, though it is unknown what the prizes were or if the contest was strictly at universities. Additionally, there was a competition in 1992 in Japan, which likely used the same format, though details on this are more sketchy. It may have been called the Champion Competition.
Here is a link to the site I found this information on:

Snesmaster, I think we went over this, the other one you have is the Campus Challenge SNES version, it just happens to be in a SFC casing.
I have wanted to buy this thing from you since I know how much you paid for it, but I don't know what you want to sell it for.
Nintendo seriously can put anything in dev things lying around, and with the marketing guy where this came from, the only thing that happened when it was playable on college campuses was mostly gameplay. There was an NES and a SNES version of this.
Adol collects retail stuff. He is not into competition stuff much unless it is official Japanese, and that is not it. I don't think he is denying it to be rare, but he does not usually have interest in that. He likes sealed games, and Japanese games, and collects very rare stuff on that end, and I like protos and US stuff, we all collect what we want, but the point is, it's a US comp cart regardless of what format it is in and where it came from (Nintendo marketing/promotions guy)
Japan isn't USA.
About Video games history,they're MILES better.
Meaning that even for a 1982 game,they know the PRECISE DAY of release.the official price,everything.
They let it know through HUNDREDS of books, from different publishing companies.
And they had dozens of video game magazines,the most known being Famicon Tsushin, which was weekly.
Believe me,if such thing happened,they WOULD know about it.
I mean,same thing happened with PCE Games and caravan contests, letting win caravan hucards.
It never happened.What you have is the very same thing,with modified case.
It's US history,US stuff.
At best European stuff (same casing than sfc games,but not same stuff).
The "Super Nintendo" logo just doesn't exist in Japan.
I'm not trying to say your stuff isn't rare,but itsn't japanese. Changing the case won't change a thing.
You could duplicate it and making 100,still not interesting for me.
But maybe it is for others.
I prefer my Kunio Kun Tournament Special cartridge, recognized by japanese market,and sold $7500 in stores (8 copies in existence).
I doubt you'll find many japanese guys interested in it.
And as DreamTR say,i'm not into prototype/sample/dev stuff. Many guys are into it,i'm not.
I can't be everywhere, heh
