|  "Karate" tape on ebay.com
Here is a fellow selling a broken C16 and a few games. One game is supposedly called "Karate". It's picture is in the lower right corner, a figure on a yellow background. Which game is this? Perhaps not a C16 game?

It's a Spectrum game, it's full name is Shanghai Karate.
You can see a close-up of the cover here.

http://www.lemon64.com/covers/details.php?gameID=2284&ID=1345
The game originates from the year 1988 - PLAYERS produced at this time also still for the C16/plus4.
Possibly there could be this game really also still for the 264th....

That cover isn't a c64 for sure: no red tag for system declaration.
It seems the Spectrum one: yellow red tag, and two text flags (2player and 128K music) instead of one only (2players).
We should ask to the bidder...

Ah, I see. Thanks for looking it up guys. There people really should be more careful when posting their items. Or perhaps that's their trick: get (some) people excited who think they have a rare item.

Ppl I've written a letter to the bidder:
Could you please verify if your "Shangai Karate" tape really is for c16/plus4? Thanks in advance
And that's the answer:
That game is not listed. It was on previously but has been sold. It did say spectrum on the case, but also plus 4 The other karate game is for c16+4.
Pleez English guys, investigate!
