    Default Mystery Cart - HELP! (creativision???)

    hello!! I picked up a cart today at value village and am having trouble identifying it. Here are the details:

    It says on it "Encyclopedia Jr. Whiz Kid F". on the back it says in small letters "(c) 1984 VTL. Made in Hong Kong" and there is a sticker saying "English unit indide" in both english and french (i'm in canada). it's smaller than a 2600 cart. about the size of an atari 400/800 cart. grey. the chip thingy inside is very small (smaller than the ones in 2600 carts).

    Any ideas? thanks!!

    Huh. The Whiz Kid part makes me think it's a cartridge for one of those educational "laptops" for kids. Apparently it's an old one, too, being from 1984. And I think VTL is VTech Ltd, or something, and VTech was known for those things.

    In other words you don't have clue??

    Oh, I have an excellent clue. I think it's for a VTech Whiz Kid educational computer. I'd need a picture of the cartridge to be really sure, though.

    Given the "Cartridge F" designation, it's almost certainly for the VTech Whiz Kid.
