Condition did look rough, but no one else was worried about the crooked label? I can't say I've seen examples of retail games with misplaced labels.


And one more http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=5&threadid=164134 Yes it does happen ]]>

I don't know enough about the test carts to have a solid opinion, but...(this is a big but)

Doesn't the rear label validate the legitimacy of the cartridge? What is it about the rear sticker again...the stamped code (or lack thereof) right?

Yep - http://vintage.nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=5&threadid=131659 I saw the listing too and considered buying it. Wish it had been in a little better condition, but $1300 was a good price. ]]>

So I noticed 2 Zelda NES Test carts pop up:

First, has there ever been a 5 screw one?  I'm not sure that there has (link 2).  However, the label is clearly offcenter on the second one, I have doubts that it is legit.  Though the actual cart shell is so worn, it is a bit odd.  You expect a fake to have a cart shell in pretty nice shape I'd assume.

1st one looks legit though as far as I can tell.

Thoughts anyone?


Punkr13 has a 5 screw. Haven't seen another until now ]]>
