Got this in the mail yesterday. It's the only CIB Taiwan N64 game I've seen so far. Outside of this, the only N64 cart I've seen surface from that region is Ocarina of Time (which also has a "For Hong Kong Only" variant). Anyway, this seems pretty obscure. I couldn't find anything else about it online.



And just for fun:

It is really strange how the taiwan and hong kong N64 games are so rarely seen online.. in any form whatsoever.

I say nonsense to this. I have a Taiwan only and Hong Kong only OoT cart, and they are as real as they get. There's no incentive to make fake labels, boxes, and manuals of this pedigree, they are perfectly official in every way front and back, inside and out.

If a guy could make game and accesories this damn good he could manuafacture NFR's with no problem and make a killing, not waste time and money on some very obscure Asia-regioned carts.

You can believe whatever you want, but those are legit. There are also Asian versions of N64 carts, and I have seen Asian version for Castlevania 64, Turok 2 (gray cartridge btw) and others. I saw these at a shop that only sells legit carts and refuses to carry boots. Not sure what happened regarding your story and the guy on eBay, but these are legit and freaking cool imo.

I just picked up two of these today, Ocarina of Time and Diddy Kong Racing. So now we are up to three confirmed titles, Diddy Kong, Ocarina and Super Mario 64 it looks like. I am curious as to what other games were released in Taiwan, as well as how many titles saw the Asian Only release.  Anyone know how much these are worth, and if any other titles were made specifically for Taiwan?

Check out the pics I took below.

No Aerofighters Assault has an Asian release, but not a Taiwan version.

LOL! Nice "for fun" display. Gotta get both Japanese editions and the Player's Choice Million Seller release in there.  

Mine wouldn't fit very well in the shot though I will be putting it up soon:
