I'm hopeing I came to the right spot with my find. I came across a box at an estate sale and couldnt pass it up. Can anyone please help me figure out how much the collection I came across is worth. I have the following.

NES:

Yellow Cart-Power Pad Test

Yellow Cart-Joystiick Test

Grey Cart-Power Pad Test

Grey Cart-Port Test

And a weird NES Test cart with a bunch of Japanese writing on it also says CIC:3193

SNES:

Super Scope Test

Burn-In Test

NTF 2.5 Test

Thanks for any help or info any of you can offer.  I did try Ebay but didnt have any luck on any of these titles.

i found some games at an estate sale for $5. was this a good purchase? here is a pic...



Photobucket

there is a possibility that this guy is full of shit, but there is a good chance that he isnt. i could see someone with a bunch of these test things who used to own a repair shop or something. the person dies, and someone finds some games. finding your way here and making your very first post about a bunch of test carts is a little crazy, but i definitely could believe it.


-------------------------

Look, if you don't like the things that I post, don't PM me about it and don't start a war in a thread. Just FOE ME so you don't have to read my posts! That's why Dain put it there! Use it!!!

Dude, all those games suck! You should sell them to me for 5 dollars each.

Seriously though, I just came a little.

Yeah that's a lot of test carts there that's for damn certain if he can verify it. That is a big money find if you sit on it and find the right buyer who is into those cart testing tools.

Yea those are test cartridges. I'm curious to see the famicom one, if it is what I think it is, its the same as the Control Deck test cartridge. Most likely the estate you got it from either someone worked for a Nintendo Service Center, or it was stuff that was taken from one and donated. Can't wait to see pics, also if you are looking to sell any, i'm interested in the yellow Joystick cart, its the last one I need. Congrats!

Looking for Black cartridge Color Dreams games, last 3 I need:  Metal Fighter, Moon Ranger, Baby Boomer.  Please contact me if you have any of these!

CIC:3193 is a lockout chip and datecode. That alone makes me think this is legit, but the pic will still help to value since condition can really vary with these test carts.

Sry it took so long.. And I guess the internet age has made most people not belive what anyone types.

Here are your pics. The one in Japanese is on there twice, because of the flash. Sorry if they are huge.
