A few copies that were made of the Videopac Service Test Cartridge are still available.

This is what you will get:

- cartridge with built-in display
- 29 page manual
- inlay and index card for standard Videopac box
- copy of the original Philips Service instruction sheet



The loose PCB on the photo is only to show what's inside the cartridge.

Screenshots:





With this cartridge you can check if your Videopac console is working well (joysticks, keyboard, video chip, power supply and other components). It can also be helpful when a console needs to be fixed. The grid and sprite editor of the test program can be useful for designing grid patterns and sprites.
This cartridge doesn't work well on NTSC consoles.

The cartridge with manuals and inlays costs 35 Euro.

Shipping costs:

- The Netherlands: 4.95 Euro
- Worldwide (without tracking): 7.65 Euro
- Europe (registered, with tracking): 12.95 Euro
- Outside of Europe (registered, with tracking): 17.95

Payment can be done by PayPal.

Send me a PM or email if you would like to buy a copy of this cart.

Got mine STC today and want say Thank you!

This Cartridge is perfect for testing Consoles quick and reliable.
A must if you collect consoles :)

No, they are still for sale from me for 35 Euro including manuals!

I've just sold one, so maybe someone who saw this Ebay auction was clever enough to look on the internet and see that it was still available for a normal price. So maybe I've now sold one thanks to Ebay...

A big Videopac-fan who doesn´t know our forum... strange and a little bit sad.  :(

Google helped sometimes to spare a lot of money.  ;:)

I see a lot of homebrews on eBay for hundreds of dollars.  I didn't know people actually bought them!

Hi :-)
Is it possible that this cartridge is still possible to get ?
Or is it possible that somebody can help me fund out what might be wrong with my G7000

Best Regards
