Is there any chance that there will be a Videopac layout?
That is, for me the only reason to collect in the first place because of VP & VP+

Thanks for the reply!

Like our previous release WALLS! in 2013, the game will only be released in the Odyssey² style.
Unfortunately it will not be released in the Videopac style.
It is a limited release of 100 games. (1 of 100, 2 of 100, 3 of 100, etc.)

thank you!

Personally, I'm glad that 2600connection is doing one style of release, as the dual style just make it more expensive for us collectors that want to get all we can.

Thanks Tim for sticking to one style. It is appreciated!

Too bad for the V(i)P's then

I'm keeping personally to Videopac.

Maybe later!

As long as the cart works with both PAL and NTSC, who really cares what the label looks like? It looks like it might be a good game.

Exactly!!! The game is being released in the U.S., so having it O2 style makes perfect sense to me. I buy O2, VP, whatever. As long as it works on my O2, I'll buy it. Plus as said, this looks like a good game.

It makes sense to me too but it was just a question from someone who does care about that sort of thing, and i'm glad that everybody has it's own taste about his or her collection.

Maybe i will get lucky but that's all from me about this.

Great work by the way!

I guess it depends on what's more important: collecting games or playing games.
For some people playing is more important, for others it's collecting.

Define · March 19, 2014, 05:56:06 PM

There you go Rene!
In both cases one can enjoy a hobby!

(i do play, but not at all that much)

Define, I just feel the same about Odyssey brand, in fact it was one of reasons I decided by an Odyssey back in the days. I´m still miss these manuals with a lot of nice ilustrations and 20 pages only to explain you need to press "action" to shot things ahead of you. Anyway, I really sorry, unfortunatelly seems dual releases not satisfies everbody, so that´s it.

:D

They need also 20 pages to explain what you see on TV after you bought the game because of the front cover.

It was always exciting to see how the game will look after we bought it in the store.

Because of that, I don't want to see more videos of Wildlife! Photos are enough like in the eighties. I want to play the game without to see anything before.

Define. I understand you. European loves Videopac, the rest of the world the Odyssey style.
The producer of the game must decide what he wants to do. If the game has plus features Marc release both versions of a game. So you can choose which you want to have. But I ( a silly collector) must buy both versions.
So what is better? Because I also love the Videopac style I prefer both versions.

I just purchased my copy of this game today. I can't wait to get it!

Define · March 20, 2014, 11:54:58 PM

@Rafael & Tombeck: One big agree-ing from me over here!
Maybe i am very hard for myself in ONLY collecting the VP series/Parker etc.
I even stopped with Siera because i would never get more i think, let alone complete!

Maybe it is a good thing to turn my head if i see Odyssey's coming in my alley haha
I fully understand every comment here. I'll just keep watching these booklets and cartridges/boxes and wander of in today, still looking at the designs as i was when i was a kid

Marc does a great job in putting his work to VP releases, so maybe i will get lucky with Wildlife...maybe patience...maybe

I do developed more and more respect for everyone who now makes any kind of Homebrew!!

Thanks by your words Define. If it not happened this time, probably on the next
