from wikipedia
caltron was a taiwanese company that made unlicensed crap video games that were published by HES or NTDEC or Dynacom or Megasoft. They folded and Myriad, based in Texas, bought up their inventory and began selling them with a new label pasted directly on to the old one. So as far as data is concerned caltron and myriad would be exactly the same if ripped to a ROM file, I would assume. Both seem to have US releases, but I have to wonder WHERE someone in the US would buy these unlicensed crappy games in 1992. I also wonder why sellers on amazon marketplace have copies with rental stickers on them? What store was renting unlicensed games?
Another interesting note according to tcrf the cart contains most of the data for Pokey, one of the first unlicensed games for NES, but for some reason it did not make it onto the game.
Was "Myriad 6 In 1" released in North America? I noticed that "Caltron 6 In 1" is in the Vault, but the other isn't.
