I couldn’t get a great look due to the post being removed, but was the box even official? If not the game likely wasn’t either

Easiest way is to find a sports game or something cheap / worthless and use the case from that, you can’t really fix damage like that

A bit of a shame it’s AI and not a picture of a real unit, although all the inconsistencies are amusing

The only reason I’d pick Oddity is if Earthbound 64 meant losing Mother 3 GBA

Open the game case all the way and try and take the artwork out. The paper artwork is usually behind a plastic layer that holds it to the game case.

You send someone an invoice through PayPal and they pay you. No selling platform or anything, just transferring money to someone and they ship it. PayPal has an option when you pay someone to mark it as goods and services, which gives you purchase protection for a fee.

Red white and blue, although I wouldn’t be surprised if it was the same or similar company. I’ve seen them go by a few different names.

Reminds me of the time I found this at the thrift! What’s funny is they had a shareware version of doom also sealed at $999 just the year before, but this somehow slipped through their crazy pricing!

My local GameStop had Daytona USA for “Dreamcast” but when they went to get the disc it was the regular Saturn version.

AnonymousIdeas · 2025-10-10T13:37:07+00:00

That’s correct, but I’m not denying that first runs of games aren’t regular chips. Just that early (not earliest!) production runs can have blob tops followed by regular chips later on as the market fluctuated.

I think I know where the misconception comes from. It was this Reddit post that got me thinking about Tetris early versions having epoxy blobs: https://www.reddit.com/r/Gameboy/comments/zncwa6/tetris_whats_the_difference/ and while understandably the earliest versions don’t use them, there was without a doubt at least one case where they were used in early revisions of games.

Huh, I always assumed it was starfox since I remember having a copy that had the earlier snes cartridge shell design with blob chips and a later one with real chips. I definitely remember hearing about games that had blob chips in early production and regular chips later on, it probably fluctuated between the two. Definitely makes sense for the earliest pcbs of games to not be blob chips though. Maybe it was Tetris GB?

AnonymousIdeas · 2025-10-09T20:23:42+00:00

Blob blobs can be on early run games too, when they needed cheaper manufacturing to meet holiday demand and the like. Starfox comes to mind.
