I was wondering if someone has famicom games with the ID# strarting with ET. These games are made by Idea-Tek but I'm having a hard time finding info about these cartridges. So far, I've only seen 3 different games:

ET.02 = Xiao Ma Li (a slot machine game)
ET.04 = Pu Nu Jing Ling (peek-a-boo poker with different girls)
ET.?? = F15 City War (I've only seen this game in an auction but the pic is too small to see the ID#)





There has to be more because Puzzle, Rad Racket and Venice Beach Volleyball are developed by Idea-Tek but I haven't seen them in famicom format.

Never heard of it. I've seen a lot of pirates/unlicensed's and have never come across ET. I'd be curious to know more. Are those games originals or hacks?

I'm not surprised you never heard of it because I recently discovered game ET.04 and I've been watching famicom stuff for the past 5 years and it was the first time I saw the cartdrige. I knew the game existed because I've played the rom but I was starting to doubt it was released. I was sure it was made by Hacker because it's the same game as AV Poker but with different girls. I now think Hacker didn't develop any of their games, well maybe except those weird hanafuda card games.  Anyway, Idea-Tek games are all originals.  I don't know if you collect NES stuff but most of their games were published by American Video Entertainment in the USA. I also found 2 of their games being relesed in famicom format by Super Mega (Enjoyable Horse Racing and Mahjong Block) but they don't have ID# on the label or the box. All their games seems to have been re-released by TXC/Micro Genius but with a different ID# (MGC-0XX) and they are also very HARD to find!!!
Bingo (MGC-005) aka Xiao Ma Li
F-15 City War (MGC-006)
Puzzle (MGC-007) different puzzles that the US version
Mahjong Block (MGC-008) same as Poke Block but with Mahjong tiles instead
Horses Racing (MGC-009) aka Enjoyable Horse Racing
Volleyball (MGC-010) aka Venice Beach Volleyball (also seen a title screen with "Super Mega" copyright)
Tennis (MGC-011) aka Rad Racket Deluxe Tennis II
Poke Block (MGC-012) aka Stakk'M

Another weird thing is that I've seen a game with ET.05 on the label but it's made by Computer & Entertainment. The game is the same as Tiles of Fate (released by AVE in the US). I'm confused!!!

Super Justice King is ET-1


I've seen this game but I wonder if it's really related with Idea-Tek. I think there are only a 1996 copyright on the title screen without any year. I doubt the company still existed at this time.

ET.01 is a game by Idea Tek called Puzzle.

Do you have a pic or even better, do you own it? I wonder what type of puzzles are in this game. The US version by AVE doesn't have the same puzzles as the famicom verison by Micro genius

I just got a copy of Tiles of Fate with ET.05 on it. It's got Computer & Entertainment on the label. It's the exact same style of cart as my Puzzle (ET.01) cart with Idea-Tek Corp. on the label.

Does it have a back label? Some on my C&E carts feature other games on the back label. My decathlon cart features a game I've never seen before. I have what no idea what the title could be.

Both of my ET carts have the same generic "Remarks" back label.
