2''Caltron 6 in 1'' is an unlicensed multicart developed for the Platform/NintendoEntertainmentSystem by Caltron Industries, a Taiwanese studio, and released in 1992. The cartridge consists of six games, all of which are clones of other games.
3
4* ''Cosmos Cop'': A 3D-Shoot-Em-Up that looks and plays similar to ''VideoGame/SpaceHarrier''.
5* ''Magic Carpet 1001'': A scrolling shooter with a Middle-Eastern theme.
6* ''Balloon Monster'': A direct clone of the classic arcade game ''VideoGame/BusterBros''.
7* ''Adam & Eve'': A two-player platform game where players must fly through levels and kill snakes by bursting balloons tied to their heads, based more on the game ''VideoGame/BalloonFight'' then the story of that name in ''Literature/TheBible''
8* ''Porter'': A puzzle maze game where the player has to move crates into specifically marked places on the level.
9* ''Bookyman'': A clone of the maze arcade game ''Crush Roller''.

11The cart by itself is one of the rarest NES carts, but even rarer is the version released by Myriad. When Caltron was going out of business, leftover carts were given to a company called Myriad, who did nothing more than put a sticker on the cartridge.

15!Tropes found in this cartridge:
16* AmbiguousGender: The player characters in ''Adam & Eve'' are both genderless blobs. Calling the pink character "Eve" is more of a stretch.
17* ArabianNightsDays: The direct theme of ''Magic Carpet 1001'' is a Middle-East setting where the main player character flies on a magic carpet.
18* BlatantLies: Eventually, the Caltron cart put a label on the game's cover that said "Hot selling!"
19* MagicCarpet: The title object of ''Magic Carpet 1001''.
20* NintendoHard: ''Magic Carpet 1001'' is absolutely ''brutal'' the more the game goes on. In addition, many have not managed to get past Level 3 of ''Porter''.
21* ShiftingSandLand: The setting of ''Magic Carpet 1001''.
22* ShoddyKnockoffProduct: True for all of the games but ''Magic Carpet 1001''.
