Just noticed that pricecharting lists NES Sqoon twice and distinguishes then as Sqoon as "Sqoon" and "Sqoon[5-screw]" with the "5-screw" entry being notably higher. I always thought that all copies of Sqoon were 5-screw.

This list confirms what I already thought. Thanks! Was kinda wondering haw a $50 game had jumped to $90 in a couple short years.  


I think Price Charting just differentiates any game listed with the words “5-Screw” in the listing title. If I put “Legend of Zelda 5-Screw” and it actually was a three screw it would contribute to the 5-Screw data. Yeah. Looks like the sellers who needlessly distinguish it average $15 more.

3 screw Stinger I would say is a factory mismatch, or that 'fixed' cart thing. Same with 5 screw Donkey Kong Jr Math. They exist but werent released. I got the date codes for a 3 screw DKJR math and it was dated in 86.

I wouldn't include those. Same with 5 screw RC Pro Am



This is incorrect. Stinger was officially released in 3 screw form. I had the box and manual for it. I even made a thread about it: http://nintendoage.com/forum/mess... Thats odd... Gangsa sent me pictures of the chip date codes and all the date codes for every stinger ive seen including those are the same.  One print run, 8734.   And I think only 2 3-screws surfaced?  The only thing I can think of is that the last literal handful of these games were printed like that, unless SOMEHOW they were reprinted.  But if they were they'd have a different date code.  I just found the other and the box was hangtab. 

My gut still says refurb.  Altho why reprint 1 box... if a couple more surface id change my tune.  But after all these years and 1 box and only 2 carts.  Hmmm ]]>

Also none of the non-backlabel Konami 5 screws should be listed (Contra, Super C, Bayou Billy, Silent Service, etc) because none of them are offical, there should be another section that lists the ones printed verses the ones that are special.


Can you offer some background on this? Why werent they official?

And thank you for the info, I will update tomorrow. 
Its been noted that these might have been some kind of 'demo' cart.  Not one of them have surfaced with a back label, so one can assume they were never made for sale.

Oh and you can add Stadium Events as well...

IMO its a 3 or 5 screw variant of a World class track meet variant hehe
3 Known copies to exist so far too, one loose, on with manual, and just recently a CIB copy. Unfortunately no hangtab box  

Definitely need to see a couple more to solidify its place as a legitimate variant. I personally accepted it 100% when the second copy surfaced here in New Jersey with manual   ]]>
