Near the end of the Nintendo's life cycle, there were a lot of stuff that were like 100 in 1 games. Essentially you got 100 games for the price of one. I think this is what you had.

It might have been a fatter cartridge or something, but if it's for the NES, I've seen such a beast before. And yea, the images weren't loading for me.

Its just one of those ROM games me thinks. They also come in looking like systems. Like, you get a PSX looking console, a Sega Genesis controller, and a NES Zapper gun with an Atari joystick. They sometimes say something like 1000 in 1, but its just the same game over and over. Or they put great looking screen shots of actual games on the boxes, but all that's inside are NES games.

Yep, they are working.

 

I was talking about something like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Player_Super_Joy_III

There are also GameBoy Color and GBA cartridges that work just like that NES cart.

I remeber those cartridges.

 

If memory serves, I only need to say that they're from Hong Kong, before it re-merged with China, and the copyright adherence for the games on them are dubious at best.

Yeah, that's definitely a bootleg cartridge.  There's a few forms these took, one of which was a traditional Famicom cartridge that was through an extral pin converter (rather than using the pin converters that were found in all NES cartridges) that I remember.

Yeah, though, very, very illegitimate thing there.

Seems like a regular bootleg or broken/crappy ports compilation.

I laughed my ass of when i was on the black market a year ago and saw a gameboy cartridge with pokemon, digimon and megaman suposedly megaman was the trainer in that game and you would have to catch all the digi-pokes (yes thats what they actually named them on the cover!)
makes me wonder what sucker actually falls for that crap :D

When Nintendo discovered this product, they began taking strong legal action against importers and sellers of the consoles, and have obtained a temporary injunction against the import and sale of video game systems containing counterfeit versions of Nintendo games.

As of Spring 2005, NrTrade quit selling these products, however they still retain stock by other companies. These are still in production in China by Eittek but not massively distributed. On December 16, 2005, the FBI executed search warrants at two kiosks at the Mall of America and also searched storage facilities rented by Yonathan Cohen, 27, an owner of Perfect Deal LLC of Miami, Florida.[1] The consoles, purchased wholesale at $7 to $9 each, sold for $30 to $70 each.[2] After confiscating 1,800 units of Power Player, each containing 76 copyrighted video-game titles belonging primarily to Nintendo or its licensees, Cohen was charged in Minneapolis, Minnesota in January 2005 with federal criminal infringement of copyright for selling Power Player video games at kiosks at the Mall of America and other malls across the nation.[1] In April 2005, Cohen pleaded guilty to selling pirated video games.[2]

Nine days after Cohen's guilty plea, 40 FBI agents arrested four Chinese nationals working in an international piracy ring and seized 60,000 pirated Nintendo Power Player consoles in searches in Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan and Maple Shade, New Jersey.[3][4]

In November 2005, Cohen was sentenced to five years in federal prison and required to run ads in mall magazines to tell the public how he illegally sold knockoff video games at Mall of America kiosks.[5]

Several shopping malls quit selling these products but despite that the product is still sold by other dealers (e.g. flea markets).

From the wikipedia link above. That is why you don't buy pirated stuff, it hurts the people who work hard to make it.

I have the exact same cartridge. In fact, inside, it is just a pirate Famicom cart fitted into a 72 pin NES game converter(I took mine apart to find out why it was so heavy, and because i wanted to clean it), but just all packed into one NES style cart for north americans. This same game can be found in the form of a Famicom(Japanese version of NES) version, which you insert into a 72 pin NES converter to play on your NES. It's the exact same thing, just in two seperate cases.

It has 52 games, most of them are pretty bad, but just as many are actually good games. Pac Man, Galaxian and Galaga, Star Force, Donkey Kong series, Super Mario Bros 1 platforer as well as the Super Mario Bros arcade game, Gradius, Adventure Island, Bomberman, and a whole bunch more. You have a really nice item there. I inherited mine from my uncle after his sons moved out of the house.

Back in the day, I saw plenty 31 and 21 in 1 carts which were the famicom/converter combo type with the ribbon attached so you can pull it out of your nes. Everyone around me except me had a multicart, so I envied them. But then I got the 52 in One years later, which had all the same games, but more.

Anyways, to debunk some earlier posts, this cart was not sold as a package with a pirate system. It was solde as is, by itself.
