And why would you do Paypal only.  The fees he'd have to pay would be ridiculous.

ATLANTIS II

ATARI 2600

GAME

By Imagic

and

Complete Contest Paperwork from 1982

Only Ten Contest Versions Were Made!

 

This is an original Atlantis II game cartridge for the Atari 2600 VCS System.

The only way you could have obtained an original copy of this game is by entering the Defend Atlantis Contest and scoring over two million points on the original Atlantis cartridge the two million would secure your spot in tenth place!

 

Ok, down to the complete explanation of how Imagic determined who got these cartridges and how rare they really are!

The people who entered the contest would send in a picture of their score from the TV screen, Imagic preferred instant pictures with out using the flash so it would not distort the picture.

Many people entered the contest and scored BIG! Lot's and lots of huge scores were entered, there were so many big scores over 500,000 or above Imagic asked everyone who got 900,000 or above to replay the game again. Imagic never expected so many people to achieve such high scores in this game. About 60 people scored 900,000 or more. What? you may ask replay the game again? Yes they wanted those people to replay the game until they died and not stop until all lives were lost. They did not want people quitting after they turned the game over and have them say " I can play this game forever". Not only that but, many did not follow the rules of the contest and played the game on game 4 the counter does not work on game 4.

Wait a second here, after the game hits a million the score resets itself back to zero! WRONG! the game does not set itself back to zero it has a counter after 999,999 pts the score flips over to 000,001 then after the next million it flips again 000,002 then after the next million it does it again to 000,003 and so on etc... It sort of works like that with a little twist! You get my drift? While you are playing the game you won't even notice this happen due to the fast paced gameplay. Game 4 is the only game this does not happen and the counter does not work.

Most gamer's thought wth! Why am I playing this game again to keep turning it over, the people at Imagic must be insane! Imagic never told the contestants about that counter in the original game and at the time I did not know about it either. So I did what the lady at Imagic told me to do ( when she spoke with me on the phone ) keep playing until I can't play anymore and eight hours later after being tired of playing and not taking a break or a stop into the bathroom, I decided this is enough! I Quit! ( There was no pausing the game back in those days )! Besides I was going to miss Knight Rider if I didn't stop playing!

I waited until all my lives ended that had built up, it took about 20 minutes after I quit the game for those gorgon's to finish off my city. Then I took another picture of the screen like the nice lady at Imagic told me to do. I mailed my second picture to Imagic.

I quit this game with well over Seven Million Points my score looked like this 900007 the last digit represented the amount of times the counter turned and how many points I received in the game. I ended up in the top three players across the country. Only the top ten players of round two who sent their second picture of there scores in were considered for the Atlantis II Game Cartridge. All the others were now considered out of the contest! ( Yes this was a USA contest only )!

After this was done another letter was sent out to verify those contestants were able to do it again! Now the top ten only needed to play to 900,000 then stop. I don't know what the reason was for this but it's confirmed in my letters. Now the top ten needed to send in another picture of the screen yet again!

After sending in my third and final picture, I received an Atlantis II Cartridge, my conformation letters, a snorkel set that was unmarked and not any different than any you would buy in a sporting goods store ( It was a plain set ) and I never, never got my T-shirt. I'm still angry about that even after 24 years; Yes I'm still mad! The Letters I received also explained I was one of the top 10 finalists in the contest.

Ok, now we know only Ten people received this cartridge there is no debating how many original contest versions there are!

How do I know that there are only ten (10) because I was in the contest silly. I was competing against the other (9) finalists, although, the people at a well know internet site claim there are more especially those posting messages on the message boards, they are in-fact incorrect with their information. There may well be a lot of fakes floating about but, there are only ten originals.

Now we can debate this all day long but, again I was in the Defend Atlantis Contest, I know how many people I was competing against (9) others and myself ( 9+1=10 ) Do the Math! The top four players of Atlantis II were supposed to get a free trip to Bermuda to compete for Ten Thousand Dollars.

I never found out if they completed the contest going to Bermuda and that whole shootout thing but, what I heard is Imagic was bought out and the Imagic Defend Atlantis Contest was not honored by the Company who bought them! Sorry Can't mention the company's full name here but, I think the first letter of that company was an "A".

Ok how would you know you have an original??? Simple if they supply the Documentation in this auction then it's most likely original. This type of Document is hard to forge believe me fused metal in paper with a plastic coating! Moreover, I have the original postal machine stamp dated on the original Imagic envelope.

It is fitting that sites rated this a 10/10 in their rarity lists but it's more like an (11) or an elite (10) because it was never massed produced. Games Like Waterworld 9/10 and even Music Machine 10/10 have well over 5000 copies available worldwide. Atlantis II has ten Copies available, and who knows what ever happened to the other original nine copies?

This Auction is for The Original Atlantis II Cartridge and All the Original Documents that support it's originality, Including the Original Imagic Envelope and Dated Postal Stamp. Some documents have writing on the back after all I was only twelve years old and just a kid when I received these what did I know!

Buy it Now and Own a Piece of Videogame History!

This is for local Pickup only, If you have the amount I am asking you most certainly can come and pick the item up! Pickup will be held at a local bank vault where the item is kept in a safety deposit box. No exceptions to this pickup rule.

I won't be answering any ridiculous questions, so if you have a question make it good! Everything was already explained!

There is going to be a lot of complaining on the message boards about how high a price this is going for but, everyone has their price and this is mine, I earned this cartridge and it's original unlike all the fakes floating around on the internet, due to rom uploading and downloading. If you don't want this original game you can get yourself a bona fide reproduction cartridge for around 4000.00 bucks on ebay but, you won't get the docs. If you have this cartridge it's most likely a reproduction from a rom and you paid way too much!

I have explained everything to the best of my knowledge from memory so there might be minor errors in the listing but, I did my best to accurately explain everything regarding the contest and how this rare treasure was obtained.

Payment for this item is non refundable for any reason!

Payment must be made before pickup!

1/10 Contest Originals Made World Wide Guaranteed!

Serious bidders only! Ebay's legal team has went after bidders who bid on high profile items in the past for loss of income and punitive damages!

This is the real deal!

Thanks for Looking.
