The last thing bought ....

[VideopacBelgium]

I would like to find the story of those red painted carts and other stuff...

So the white painted TEMOIN 8 is the only one with a label on the back.
TEMOIN PH (Philips) + RA (Radiola) + EXP (??) No 8
26.10.1979 was the official date release in Europe?

I've also 2 PHILIPS common carts 8 & 22 with the little label on back PDSF RA 08 & PDSF RA 22.

...and 2 boxes SERVICE S.A. 4811 693 97091 with 2 new joystick inside without wires.

And a chess module with the cart on the right.

The french seller or this VP stuff answer to me: "sortie directe de fabrication des chaines de Philips".
"...direct from the production lines of Philips..."

From the pictures that you have sent so far i looks like you have a test cartridge for sure, I have never seen anything like that before, as for your other pictures, they just look like bog standard normal carts, still its a good find! Well done

The test cartridge is quite interesting, it would not be a multi cart with just 8k and it seems quite old too. The displays look like  hex led displays with inbuilt decoder/latches. If possible I would like to have a peek at the rom code and some higher resolution photos of front and back.

Also the numbers on the other test cartridges seem to be written on later (with a felttip pen).

Looks like a normal Chess module with the stickers upside down.

This could be a G7400 testcart.

Those could be pretty rare nowadays.

Looks like a normal Chess module with the stickers upside down.

... except that the cable coming out of the module is on the right instead of on the left like any other Chess module I have ever seen ...

Except when the module is lying upside down...
(notice the position of the stickers)

[grgh]

It does look like it is just upside down, with the stickers the other way up.

Maybe that chess module has been used in a photoshoot where it was mounted on the back of a console (e.g. a G7200 where it would lie almost flat)  and  was to be photographed from the backside.

[ANDYRYALS]

Still, the G7400 test cart must be pretty rare , how many of these are floating around, maybe less than 10???

true  :D I didn't notice the hinges on top because of the dark picture :-)
