Games we hear about but can't find...

Everyone is absolutely right. The NWC like five years ago was THE hot topic in the NES community -- back when a copy would show up on eBay once a month. Now-a-days, the ROM is available, and it has been proven to be... not so special.

I once saw a copy of the gold cartridge for for $3,200! And I think another copy went for $4,000+! The grey one is much less expensive; I've seen copies go for $500 and less. Then again, this was years ago, when the community was at its best period for buyers.

Ahh yes I have been searching for years for a golden NWC cart. I always keep my eyes open at the flea markets and thrift stores. I know one day I'll find one then I'll get a heart attack and my brother will be the owner of the cart waaaaaaaaaaaaa!

I'd like that gold cart version of Rockman 4. But there's only 8 of them I heard.

Someone should develop an NWC pirate for the Famicom..

That would kick major ass

You can't use the NWC on the Famicom with a converter because there's no "Start" button on the controller II, which starts the game, so that function would need to be hacked. I'd love to see it, but it doesn't sound like it'll happen, since there's no Famicom repro market -- the NWC is one of the few reasons to own the NES.

You could change that pesky start function to...

BLOW INTO THE MICROPHONE

Ahh but JC!! You could use it on a Famicom AV maybe? Using Nes / Dogbone controlelrs? Or is it a system thing?!

[UPDATE] there are two gold Rockman carts on YJ right now...

nintendodork · January 22, 2009, 10:18:37 am

It's just the start button holding it back, I think.

JC · January 22, 2009, 10:22:32 am

Hmm...Good point. I've never tried it with the AV. I'll do that tonight. So, there may actually be no reason to own an NES...

I always have dreams of finding the golden cart then I wake up and there is nothing in my hands sob sob.....anyways, should be interesting to check out about the NWC on Famicom.

Even if you did that, you still wouldn't have the right label...
The repro from retrozone says "retrozone" right on it...

Unless you made your own label..which I guess you'd almost have to...

L___E___T · January 22, 2009, 01:15:40 pm

Yeah the gold carts have a red label, so you'd absolutely have to.

Jelly Boy for Super Nintendo.

Was this gam even released?

I have yet to see it on ebay Ever.

When I was little I played the rom a lot.
