^Those look amazing.

The best part about Paul's copy is the screenshot on the backside where there's a crudely drawn wang on Mario.

Awesome test carts, but I'm kind of irked that they're not graded. Why is a NWC Gray given a grade but a test cart isn't?

Its by choice. You can request a No Grade for authentication purposes only. Your referring to Doug's NWC 85+ and he wanted it graded. He could have asked for an NG but chose not to.

False, Kim wouldnt let us grade it. It fit only under the category of being authenticated, not graded.

Thats odd, because when I sent my protos in they gave me the option to grade them. Different with test carts?

how long ago? I wish they would have graded the Zelda test cart. It's in flawless condition. If they open up the option I would recase them with grades.

Thanks everyone. Thought you might like it 1upped haha branches.

Got back my first submission!

Zelda:



SMB: I'm including pics of the stickers.. I thought it was kind of cool that it was at  a US Coast Guard, and that eventually it got down to 99c..

Since we've been on the Q tip lately, here is one item I'm happy with as Q. Won't ever find one sealed.

The gyro is unique, and to me personally, is of questionable origin.

Very, very interesting that it was authenticated.  Not to say it shouldn't have been, but I'm surprised.

ninja edit:  I'm not knocking it getting graded either, though looking back my post reads that way.  I haven't seen any conclusive info on one ever.
