A few months back I came across a Wanted cartridge that was about to be the first dead SMS one that I had ever seen. I had already cleaned it with the heavy stuff we normally use on Tec Toy carts but the problem remained the same -- black screen upon turning the console on. I thought about leaving it alone/throwing it away, but the fact that this would mean I would've seen a dead SMS cart kept me going. Finally I decided to run a continuity test with a multimeter on the cart's connectors and eventually discovered that some of them were unresponsive. Even though they were all visually identical and there was no apparent reason to doubt their functionality, life has taught us that kids around here cannot be trusted and that we won't always believe the things they would do with videogame cartridges, so I decided to ignore what I saw and instead vigorously rubbed some steel wool on the connectors -- a couple of minutes later, the game was up and running... Which was cool for the next five minutes or so, since the game actually sucks.

Can't say for sure... your observation is correct, though -- Tec Toy's site came out only on 1997, and unless we have variations of Esportes' cover (mine's also got the website on the back) somewhere out there we can estimate at least its release year. Although I'd expect Corridas and Lutas to be released around 1995 or so and Esportes Radicais to be close to Esportes since it's the only one with a custom title screen and I don't think Tec Toy started messing with ROM content earlier than 1997 or so. But I could be wrong...

@stan: I believe you misunderstood the manual. On the back of the cover we have (for Série Corridas, for example):
Which means:
On page 1 we have:

Haha, I love this game -- especially its music I usually finish it at least once a year; last time was a couple of months ago. I don't know how I came to like this game, though; I can't stand RPGs...

Yes, it's currently down due to the administrator being on vacation somewhere along Chile or Argentina... He stated a few days ago that this could happen, though. Edit: well, not anymore.

There are like 3 complete copies on Mercado right now. ...something that hasn't happened in like 3 or 4 years. There have been a few copies around the last 2 or 3 months, maybe; one of those weird SMS-collecting market behaviors.

TransBot is awesome ;D although no-one will back me up, here Anyway, I guess it's just me being nostalgic. There are already a few threads spreaded throughout the forums discussing the subject, and playgeneration usually gives the most reasonable opinion about this game, from what I've seen.

@stan: that sticker there on the Light Phaser is a ticket for a soccer game here in Brazil ...which is certainly not original to the box, if that's what you were thinking. Sorry.
