Look what I found behind my cupboard: Picture 1 Picture 2 Just wanted to show you, maybe this fits into obscure video gaming, cause the cartridge is not standard shaped and the place where i found it is also not that common Sorry for the dust
J-Carts are common, though not many games used them. IIRC me and my m8s used to always have 4 player J-Cart nights in on Micro Machines
I always thought those were one of the greatest ideas ever as far as cart-based games were concerned.
Indeed, I agree. I'd rather pay a little more on the cart price, than have to spend an extra £20 on a multitap. Innovation to save gamers' money! Hurrah for Codemasters and the MD.
hm this one reminds me of my old megadrive collection, i think i have some cartridges left and one of them should be a Pete Sampras Tennis Proto...i'll have a look later
Indeed. The other cool feature I recall in a Genesis/MD cart was the super neat "link up" cable idea in the game ZERO TOLERANCE. Basically you had to mail away for a free cable that you used to plug into control port 2 with which you could link to another Genesis/MD system to play via linked mode. Of course, the Neo Geo pioneered this very feature with Riding Hero, Thrash Rally, and League Bowling, except their carts actually had little ports to connect a phono-to-phono audio cable to.
Micro Machines 2, Micro Machines '96 and Micro Machines Military also came in these carts. I played MM2 and '96 so much back in the day that J-Carts don't seem unusual to me at all ^_^
found it! here's the sampras tennis proto cart i bought some years ago: Picture 1 Picture 2 Picture 3 Has anyone ever heard of that one before ? I've never seen any of those again...
Nope, it's labeled UK and i also bought it in the UK, to be precise, in London when i was there for vacation
As did Pete Sampras '96 and Super Skidmarks. The first Pete Sampras game and Micro Machines 2 were both also released on standard Codemasters carts.
