Ive dug up a little Google info on the subject...

Link 1

Lots of info there. They refer to the cart as the "triathlon cartridge" in the Aftermath section.

Link 2

Check out the pdf's!

Good stuff.

hmm... the last one of these went for less than $2,000 only 2 or 3 months ago. Either fake bidders or stupid bidders.

That can be quite dangerous. If 2 people or more want the game and enter 1 million at the end of the auction, one of them has to buy it for a million as long as eBay won't quit the auction because of the high bidding.

If I was the seller I wouldnt give my hopes up seeing the high bidder has a feedback of 0.

900 is cool in comparison to 5700 (at which the auction of this topic stands at the moment). :wink:

But I wouldn't even pay 100.
I have the money, but there are many better ways to spend that for me.

Think of all the other games and stuff you could buy for that much.....
I'd be suprised if they actually pay.
$5,700 with five days left :shock: . Wonder how much it'll go for...

I think you would spend $100, if only for a quick and huge turnaround :D

Imagine just going to a yardsale, and seeing one of these listed for 10c? That would kick ass.

If you look at the questions at the bottom, he says he never knew they were so rare. He probably saw the auction for the other one, crapped his pants at how much it's worth, and immediately put it up for auction.

Since his ends second, I think he'll get more for it. He'll get all the frustrated losing bidders from the first one, so there might be some more aggressive bidding on his.

There are 116 of these carts in circulation, 90 grey ones and 26 gold ones. The grey ones were given out during the competition in 1990, and gold ones were given away in a Nintendo power sweepstakes.

The reason why people pay so much for it is because this is usually the last game an NES collector needs to complete his collection.
