I find the Vista/Win7 reprints to be odd. Despite clearly being reprints, as Vista was released in 2006 and Win7 in 2009, they're the only ones to listed both the earlier year (2003) and the earlier name (Zuma, not Zuma Deluxe). Quite odd. Anyway... hopefully somebody finds this interesting tongue

Also, can anyone tell which version is the original version? I would guess either the 756059111692 barcode, or the 811930100698, but I couldn't say which one, since I don't really understand barcode numbers. I know that the digits nearer to the end of some of the UPC numbers match the catalog(?) numbers too (10069, 10070, 10253), but the difference between 756059111692 and 811930100698 eludes me.

You're now responsible for buying all of those smile

Not even lying, I'm already tempted, lmao.

At the very least, I'm seriously considering buying the 756059111692 and 811930100698 releases. I'd love to get a look at the Primary Volume Descriptors. Unfortunately, the current listings on eBay would require me to send picture requests out to a lot of sellers, since it happens to be a bunch of people who don't know how to take a picture of the back of the slipcase right now (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

Updated with another edition I found, 756059114716. Also bought a copy of 756059111692 on eBay just now. Hopefully it's the version the person said it is; it's one of those "I'm selling 3 of the exact same thing!" listings, so we'll see.

Some rather crazy timing; one was dumped 4 days ago, but unfortunately doesn't include a barcode. Perhaps it was the slim box version that doesn't have a barcode.

I got a lot of disc only stuff, so if you get one that matches please add a barcode!

Ah, I see! It's all good. Primary Volume Descriptor on yours is 2007-07-06, so at least we know we have one from this era. If I ever do get a matching disc, of course I'll redump it wink

Yeah, it is better, and I'm tempted... maybe when I'm satisfied with Zuma X)

It arrived today... PVD shows 2005-09-22. That's later than I expected, given the date on these things is 2004. I'm buying a copy of 811930102531 right now. The dumps will have to wait a bit, as I'll have to hook up my XP machine since the drive on this newer machine is not consistent when it comes to CDs. I will eventually get these up though.

08/16 EDIT: Got 811930102531... exact same date :') I'll have these up in the next few days, as soon as I hook up my XP machine again.
