I agree, but what about getting consent from developers? Thunderstruck made it clear that he disagrees with anyone selling carts with his work on it. Are his views on this still relevant after he decided to walkaway? I don’t know about other developers. How many would agree to something like this?

If someone here does not create an avenue for people to buy physical carts of back catelog homebrew games, people will eventually start to look to third party sellers. The resale price on short run releases is too high. For example, Bound High is on ebay for $350 CIB, a third party seller has it listed for $79 cart only and another for $48 cart only. Or, Faceball Remastered is listed for $79 on one site and not listed at all on the other site. It would be great if there was another option.

I am new here but I would like to see something like this, especially for back catalog titles. A trust system would be helpful. Take a look at bitcointalk.org and how they do trust. Maybe a custom made tamper-evident hologram sticker on each cart would step it up a notch and add collectability of official carts. You could add a window to the sticker for a serial number for each cart.

Something like this on each cart but with Planet Virtual Boy,

I had a few virtual boy units fixed by NES Freak last year and one of them had a bad display unit from a previous owner attempting something similar. He had replacement parts ready to go and it did not cost much more than what I already paid.

Good luck.
