Vintage Photos - Lot 6 (413-416)

Most of the photos in this set are not labeled or dated but it looks like that range from as early as the 1960s to as late as 1980. These were all probably taken in the Lansing, Michigan area.

The first photo features a girls softball game. This is probably from the late 1960s or 1970s.

Vintage Photos - Lot 6 (409-412)

The photos in this set were all taken in the early 1960s and they were probably all taken in the Lansing, Michigan area.

The first photo was processed in May 1963 and was presumably taken at a golf course since it features a bunch of signs with golf rules. $2 for 18 holes doesn't seem bad...

Mortal Kombat Trilogy (NES)

I posted previously about "demakes" on the Atari 2600 which are basically just clones of newer games on an older system. There can be a fine line as to what is legal and not, particularly when selling such products. But then there are those who just don't give a crap.

Mortal Kombat Trilogy was released officially on various home platforms in 1996 and 1997 but these were 32-bit releases on the PlayStation, Saturn, Nintendo 64 and DOS/Windows. There were no official releases on older platforms. However, that didn't stop Cony Soft from developing an unlicensed bootleg version for the original Nintendo in 1998.

Cony Soft, a Hong Kong based company that went by a variety of other names made a number of bootleg games for the NES from 1993 through at least 1998. Most of them were fighting games. I suppose there must have been some demand for them somewhere at some point but it's hard to imagine that they are very good. Though I suppose given the limits of the system, Mortal Kombat doesn't look half bad on the NES.
