I know this is old, but I love how everyone freaked out when they thought James destroyed them when they turned out to be fake replicas that got destroyed.
-
That guy who sold it to you sounded very nice about the whole thing.
-
I can picture Pat during that week of doubt on whether or not to buy the gold cart, twisting and turning in his bed, naked, clutching his grey NWC cartridge and crying loudly with the neighbors banging on the walls.
-
It's an amazing acquisition to get just the gray cart. The fact that you have both is just the most incredible collecting feat ever. I'm glad that they are in the hands of a REAL collector and not some greedy reseller. Congrats Pat, you deserve them!
-
stop making up stories we all know you beat up AVGN for that smash cart and then super glue and tape that cart together.
-
Glad my question got answered Pat and Ian. I was the guy who asked this (MightyDucks8) and I didn't expect it to be answered, and yet it was their first answer on the Q&A. Real great story.
-
When I saw your hand move into Ian's camera range, it honestly blew my mind because i thought that the two of you filmed in separate areas.
-
When pat gets rid of his collection, he should use the money to build an Indiana Jones temple, complete with a rolling boulder, password floors, and booby traps, with the NWC cart in the center of the temple.
-
Right place right time, good story, nice that you met the guy - I guess that's a must when handing over so much cash!
-
That's awesome. Thanks for sharing the story! I bet your were nervous as hell on the plane there and even more nervous about carrying it around on the plane home! Bet you couldn't wait to try it out and play it as soon as you got in!
-
thats just crazy how stuff like this happened, all because the guy googled his name so you have to wonder how many more are out there just sitting in a attic somewhere. i recently got a sega genesis in a box along with nes and snes game carts from a friend kinda the same way, they were just sitting in the back of a garage for the past 10 or so years and completely forgot about them, he dug them out and gave them to me as he knows i am interested in old games
-
What Pat was actually buying here was not a piece of plastic junk but some popularity.
-
And when the Nerd broke your copies, you couldn't sleep for months
-
Pat do you know the 2-3 other people who have both of the carts? Have you ever gotten in touch with them? I'm just curious to know if you know them
-
