Braveheart's Master Collection List

Welp, I'm happy and relieved to say that after 4+ years I have finally completed the master collection list I began working on so long ago.  I need to do a little tweaking to it and check a couple things but from #'s through Z's licensed and unlicensed etc for USA my complete list with ALL variants I have found over the years is done.  I will be sending a copy to Dain to update the database and collection tool with and for you all to enjoy or not enjoy if you area variant hunter as there are MANY!  image

Here's a sample... I finally cracked all the Zelda variants and this is what you need.  8 Total CIB's when you include the "Classic Series" release.  Or just 7 of the gold cart CIB's.  image

  • Fantastic! I need that list!

    EDIT : Oh, and congrats! That's some fabulous work you've done here!
  • Holy. Crap.



    I never thought this would be something you could say you are "done" with -- congrats on accomplishing the improbable.
  • Woah! Thats going to be quite impressive!
  • Awesome! I remember inquiring about getting this a while back and getting shot down cold ha
  • Congrats on the epic accomplishment.
  • Amazing! I can't wait to see the list.
  • And wow, had no idea there were so many Zelda variants, and that there is only 1 variant that contains the 5 screw cart.
  • Dude, you rock. I can't wait to pour over the information you've gathered. It's an invaluable contribution you're making to the community by allowing it to be made public.



    My hat is off to you image.
  • Really awesome of you Erik, I have waited years to see this. I can't wait.
  • Very cool, congrats and thanks for all your hard work!
  • Dear god, I hope I never become a variant collector. This thread is making my head explode... but excellent job with compiling the list.
  • Oooh, send me the list!

    Agreed. On the one hand it's a cool collecting accomplishment but on the other, well, it's gotta be a serious headache to attempt it. Hell, it's hard enough for me to even try and nab a complete set as it is.

  • One Zelda is just fine for me, damn braveheart this must of taken some extensive research dude.
  • Jeez, looks like someone has no life! XD JK, but seriously, that's awesome there are that many variant carts of Zelda for the NES. I wondering if they differenciate between prices or if all are the same, but with different variants.
  • Ohh this post is lame, no pics WTF Erik! I wanna see a pic!

    Ok on a more serious note.  Congrats on finding them all. 

    That is dedication Erik
  • Wow, that's very impressive! Congratulations on finally finishing the entire list! That thing must be massive.
  • Are any of those the purple ganon version?
  • ^You stole my post LOL
  • The ultimate in OCD haha, great job Erik, congrats image
  • Nice job Erik. No wonder it took so long. Good job.
  • Painstakingly long, good grief man. That's some hard work. Congrats and thanks for your efforts!
  • Congrats! 8 Zeldas?!?!? I can't even wrap my head around trying to find all those variants.
  • This is absolutely amazing, and will definitely make the collection tool unbeatable. Thank you for the huge time and money that it took to get it done!

    He tied me to a desk and paid me in Doritos crumbs to help him.  Cheap labor.
  • Wow. This is insane.

    He said money, not sexual favors... "Doritos" is just the safety word.

  • Crackitos.... i'll do anything for Nacho Cheese.



    Hey nice job Erik, hope you havea list for international variations as well image
  • Nice work Erik
  • Argh, and I thought I was doing good with my two NTSC's and one PAL Zelda.
