It's a gold cartridge (it was sealed in the box, no manual was included) with the text "limited edition" on the lower-left of the front label, but I can't figure out who actually made it.  The person I got it from has no idea, and I couldn't figure it out from google and Ferris' thread.  I feel like the triforce bird is a logo I remember someone using, but it also could just be a triforce bird since it's a Zelda game    But then again, it is on the front, too...anyway, anyone know where this is from?  Thanks!

Sorry, I should have clarified...I know it's a reproduction, but I'm asking who made this specific limited edition run.  Thank you!

I've seen those, but they aren't the right box and definitely a different cartridge.  The mystery continues...

I could have sworn I have seen that triforce symbol used on carts here on NA on a sell thread, seems forever ago and I cannot find it for the life of me. I want to say they were selling AST at a reasonable price then as well...

I totally agree that it looks so familiar...I'm hoping someone can identify it!

Hmmm... Box was made separately from the game and from a different artist, I do know that.

The reason I know this is that the art on the cart doesn't have constricted proportions. I've made that mistake a long time ago. To all you graphic artists out there: always remember to hold shift before resizing the image.  

Also, the corners of the label looks hand cut. Here's the image used for the logo: http://pm1.narvii.com/5849/14c28b...

That looks like one of my first repro games, actually... A little embarrassing because there are flaws all over it ^^; but I do think that was mine when I first started doing that.

Edit: upon closer inspection I'm 99% sure that's mine.

Awesome!! Thanks for the pm, Satashi26. Turns out this is one of only three made, and the way I got it is a little oddball, so it's an interesting find.

Me too. Even though I pointed out a flaw, again it's something I did when starting out as well, and by no means a bash toward your work. Hand cutting corners (or anything for that matter) is pretty tough for anyone to do too.

Overall, it's a great package all together and shows great effort put into it.
