Well I traded him the Wild Gunman (and to this day it's still the only thing I've ever sold or traded out of my personal collection that I don't have)
Holy smokes I feel honored! If you ever want it back to fill that missing hole I can sell it back
..cough... triple the price...
Nah seriously if you want it back for your own collection we can work it out.
I appreciate/appreciated your setting me up with it though - very nice of you. Aren't Cdn black boxes great??? I love how there is a little cult following for them now. When I first starting collecting them "US American" collectors would have just spit on them rather than collect them. If I wish I hadn't let a few pass!
Pictured is definetly my favorite part of my -CAN collection. All different variants, no doubles. I have lots of other parts/pieces of CIB's for the original run NES -CAN stuff but these are all the CIB or Sealed I have from the 1st run games. I have abou 20 other -CAN CIB titles as well but they just aren't as cool as these ones are!
Thanks for the close pics. I didn't notice the small "Arcade Classics Series" mention on CDN ones. Anyway, I meant that they don't have silver background in the title area, just like other BBs.
Poochy... they were as close to sealed as you can get... all of them were taken out of shrink wrap or sticker just peeled up and thats it. Don't ask me why. None were ever played they were all in plastic baggies with all inserts. The funny thing was they were never played but the guy had cut up the first 2 issues of Nintendo Fun Club and put the articles for say Zelda in the Zelda box, etc.... it was truly a great find!!

That Bronty... he's always involved somehow! Because of him is how I ended up with this DH.

Yeah, CDN Black Boxes rock, and I personally like how Classic Arcade Series are looking different from american releases.

what do you mean? I only collect sealed ones; I've never actually seen a Cdn BB from the arcade series.
Braveheart's pic is quite helpful here. They're designed just like other CDN BBs with silver seals of quality instead of gold ones.
Nice pics Eric! One of these days I should take some pics of my sealed Cdn games. Just wish I had more games to include in the pic!
I'm not sure what he means Dan... I went to the shelves and pulled some original 1st run sticker sealed Arcade Series Titles to compare...
Donkey Kong: 1st Run Sticker Seal USA on left, Canadian Sticker Seal (ripped off) on right.
Popeye: 1st Run Sticker Seal USA on left, Canadian Sticker Seal in middle, and HOLAND (HOL) Sticker Seal on Right.
