Title: Interesting James Pond 1 Sticker on Box
Post by: fondpondforever on May 10, 2016, 02:02:32 AM

Remember a thread on EAB before about the Limited Edition version of James Pond 1 which makes use of the 1mb capacity. I wonder if this sticker relates to this. Most versions just come with a round sticker on the bottom left saying 'Amiga'. This ones in gold and says 'CBM Amiga All Models'. Do you think this means it makes use of the later Amiga Hardware capabilities? Thanks.

Doesn't 'Amiga' and 'CBM Amiga All Models' mean the same thing? I'd say those descriptions are equal to one another...so no.

You never know, that version with the sticker just may be another unknown version. If you're a serious James Pond fan then I see nothing wrong with collecting them all. I'm sure they're all on eBay...

So on a scale of 1 to 10 how likely is it that the gold sticker version uses 1 megabyte for the fmv scenes.

Probably zero chance, I have the Gold CBM sticker version and it's just the standard 512KB version, there is nothing special with the golden sticker.

Been looking for a boxed copy of James Pond, big box preferred, if anyone has one they'd be willing to part with.   :)
