It's so easily fake-able that there really shouldn't be much value to these at all. And as far as a crease goes...many labels don't crease and will stick flat. The labels are simply "stuck around" the corner and not folded...when the game didn't receive much rough wear and tear, a full crease line would never develop. If a game/label is mint it should come off without a crease. Many games kept CIB for their lifespans come look this way, they haven't been handled/abused enough to form a crease around the plastic of the cartridge.

Now if there was an offcut label that would rock socks. Has anyone ever seen labels where the cutter got off-alignment and the image is off-center/rotated off the label entirely? ]]>

The rip on the corner is a tale tale sign it is a fake IMO. Looks like they tried to start the peeling from that corner and got the top half of paper without realizing it at first. Then the got the bottom sticky part going and finished the job.

Even if it were mint and 100% real, it still wouldn't fetch that much money, less than 30 at VERY most I think. Michiganfan2 got an upside Yoshi that is real as far as I can tell for like 15 from Qixmaster a long time ago, so they aren't really worth that much extra, just a interesting piece to have.

How about somebody with a vast collection of cheap-ass extra cartridges test the theory of peeling and resticking the label to compare the results? ]]>
