Yeah if you thought you were not going to get out bid with 50.00 and being on SGW.com lol sorry never going to happen. ANYTHING on SGW.com is going to go for an obscene amount. This will be well over a grand easy.

The real question is does it have the back label.

Yeah, my max bid was a joke in case the universe decided to do me a favor.

I would never buy that yellow piece of crap!

Honestly, I only collect games that I enjoy and play. I really don't want that expensive piece of chinese plastic in my possession. I've got a wife and baby on the way... no time for such nonsense.

That's my $0.02 (and why I shared the link right away).

Nice to see an interesting auction other than NWC for a change. Should be fun to watch, thanks for posting.

Edit:  Bah, there's one on eBay too!?  Nothing is rare these days!  (Sarcasm of course, but you get the point.)

I had a complete Test cart set (not including oddball stuff like Gyromite and Duck Hunt) plus a few grey variants but sold them a few years back. Loved the Test Cart, but the money was more important at the time.

Muresan's looks beautiful, and the back label is essential in my opinion.

nope those are pretty much one of a kind things that were made at a service center. They are not on the official list and don't have part numbers on the service center reorder list so I don't count them. Doesn't mean it wouldn't take one if I found one thou

. I've seen several of the yellow version, never a Zelda one thou. I have a five screw yellow port test cart myself. They def show up a lot less than 3 screw ones. As far as I know there are no 5 screw grey test carts.

The 5 screw port is actually a revision of the original that fixed an issue, and I remember seeing 1 Zelda
