Hey all, first time posting after joining...very cool forum.  I found my way here looking up information about a MTPO 5 screw.  I was at a local dealer today and going through stacks of games and noticed the top of a MTPO cart with no clips.  Grabbed it up for $20...there were also two other 3 screw copies at the same price.  Anyway, I believe it's legit, so here's some pics.

I have one of these as well.  Wish I had a mintier version as I'm a Castlevania collector and mine has a bit of the label worn through at the top corner.

Hey everyone. First time posting. I was going through my childhood game collection and stumbled upon a DuckTales cart with an upside down label. Ive been unable to find any information on it until I found this awesome thread, some very cool stuff. I understand that many of you search for these oddities. Has anyone seen this specific cart before with an upside down label? Would anyone be interested in it?

I have an Excitebike and Commando with 3 screws, but the screws are flathead and not Gamebit. They look like the exact same screws used in the old Game & Watch. Are these known variants?

What's the value on a 5 screw mega man at this point. I'm also curious about the value on a 3 screw DK JR.

Also have a copy of Crystalis that I'm thinking is a misprint and I'm curious how common it is.
