VIC-1903 Rally-X Cartridge for Sale or Trade

Post by ka20 »

I will be selling a VIC-1903 Rally-X cartridge for the VIC-20 / VIC-1001. This is an extremely hard to find item that was only sold in Japan. But before I list it on eBay, I thought I'd open it up to forum members who might offer something interesting to trade.

If you have an equally uncommon item for the VIC-20, C64, or other Commodore machine that you would like to trade, please let me know. I might also be willing to trade for dollars, Euros, etc. :D

If not, I will be listing the cartridge on eBay on Thursday and I'll post the link in this thread.

I would have loved to get an opportunity to scan the instructions and box before this is auctioned...

I've had some international buyers inform me that the eBay Global Shipping program fees are very expensive. As an alternative, I am willing to ship directly through USPS First Class International which offers tracking to most countries. Cost for this is: Europe - $22.50, Australia - $22.75, Canada - $15.50. If you live somewhere else I can give you a quote. I can also work with you to set an "appropriate" declared customs value :)

I have the game on Mega-Cart, though; about as arcade perfect as you could possibly expect from the VIC. Great game and great collectable for the person who can afford it.

It's also present on the Behr-Bonz. Since Commodore had legal trouble with this game, they re-incarnated it in the form of Radar Rat Race but the jingle in RRR makes you want to turn the sound off.

Is there a PAL ROM image of Rally-X? I don't seem to be able to find one but it is mentioned here

The only PAL ones I find say they are Rally-X on the web sites and the file name but when you try them it's Radar Rat Race but with Rally-X written on the title screen. Since Japan is NTSC I have my doubts that a real PAL version exists. I found that file you are referring to from the Lemon reference and It's Radar Rat Race also.

There won't be a natural PAL version because the game was only released in Japan.

I realise that but I wondered if only the screen position needs tweaking if someone had patched it.

Isn't the Mega-Cart version already fixed?

SInce I patched it for the Behr-Bonz, I can tell you only the screen position requires tweaking.
