JAMES BOND 007 for the Odyssey2 and Videopac ( a false alarm )
Earlier in the week, I was browsing eBay and I was looking for Odyssey2 games.
I stumbled across a listing for JAMES BOND 007, by Parker Brothers.
My heart skipped a beat. Could this be a prototype of sorts? Maybe it was only released in Europe.
Maybe it was only released in Brazil.
I looked at the pictures.. the cartridge was dirty, yes. The back of the cartridge looked correct.
Maybe this seller did not realize what he had. $12! I have to "buy it now" before I miss out.
Looking at the end of the cartridge,
it even kind of looked like an internal Odyssey2 printed circuit board!
I started counting pins... there were too many
Then I broke out my DIGITAL PRESS PRICE GUIDE
JAMES BOND 007 was not listed in the Odyssey2 section... not even under "prototypes"
I decided to ponder what other gaming system this could be for...
I then checked the C-64 section, and sure enough, it was released for the C-64!
I got my box of C-64 game cartridges and low and behold, the pins matched!
I contacted the buyer on eBay:
He then soon after ended the listing...
So... what now?
Is there a homebrew programmer that may be willing to try to port the game
to the Odyssey2 / Videopac?
Do you think it is "do-able"?
What are your thoughts?
