Hey guys, I came across a 5 screw misprint of qbert recenTly. I can post a picture of it once I get home from work. Any idea what something like this is worth?
You can add me to the list for Gotcha and Jaws. I also recently found a 5 screw Alpha Mission in the wild, a cart variant I barely hear anyone discuss. How many known 5 screw copies of Alpha Mission are out there?
Just realized I haven't logged in for over a month. lol I'm such a lazy ass. Sorry everyone!!!!
Fantastic finds, guys! Especially you, Ferris Bueller. If I had known GammaRay was going to sell his variants.......
I think I got everything covered. Fusoyaff2 (awesome username, by the way), 5-screw Alpha Mission is a bit hard to classify. It's an R8, I believe, and not quite rare enough to make this list. It's definitely uncommon, but I don't know if I would necessarily say it's rare.
I remember back when I thought that my Goonies 2 5 screw was extremely rare (I certainly paid enough for it). Now they're all over ebay, going for under $50......what happened?
Also I just found a 3 screw Gyromite mixed into a lot of games on ebay.....unfortunately I already have every other game in that lot. How rare/valuable is that one?
You have to be careful with 3-screw Gyromite. If you can't clearly see the front label, you run the risk of it being a Canadian 3-screw, which are common. It would have a small set of the letters CAN on the front at the bottom right if it's Canadian. The US version has no lettering like that.
Not sure if this is appropriate for this thread, but I have a 10 Yard Fight where the end label text slightly goes over to the front of the cartridge. It has been put on ebay item number 311347633404. You really have to see it in person, the pictures don't show it very well.
Hi all, I'm new here. Does anyone have 5 screw variants they are looking to sell? Just trying to get an idea of how much the rarer ones are worth, since they don't switch owners quite often. These just seem fun to try and get. Great thred
Hi all!! I'm acquiring more 5 screw variants, was wondering if anyone is willing to trade. I have s 5 screw MTPO and was looking to trade it for a 5 screw mega man or a 5 screw star force.
Just thought id ask!!! I know I'm late to the party

Thanks again
For anyone looking for easier to get 3/5 screw games, I kept holding on to all the variants I found and have a box or two of doubles. Probably all r6-8 and lower. Goonies 2 is probably the rarest I'm sitting on. But it you're looking, I'm holding.
Can you guys tell me how rare (if at all) this is? Thank you.
It seems that yours is the second known copy, so pretty damn rare! Nice find!
Can you or someone else explain the 5-screw "factory mismatch"? I can't remember how you can tell if a cart should be a 3 or 5 screw (without looking at the screws).

I'm doing my best to not be nasty to you right now. I spend my free time looking for this stuff, but I must not have it going through descriptions.
I want to cry. Damn it.
Edit
Here are the pictures promised
Here is a 5 screw Basewars from a craigslist lot. I think I'm getting sucked in.
