I saw a system that looks just like the one you have here for offer, it did look faded on one side, the overall grey was also darker and the buttons did match the darker purple from this system. This mini Snes that I am talking about also had phillips screws, (by all these signs we would think it was a bootleg also) but when we opened it to clean it, it had original harware as the one you have pictured on your link as original. This makes me wonder if Nintendo really had a 3rd party helping out with production of the system, since the Mini was meant to be more accessible pricewise.... how could they sell it at a lower price? Only by cutting costs...
I have no idea.  But the hardware itself runs a SNES game just fine.  I find it funny that this was seemingly made around 2004 (if I am reading the system board stamp correctly).

I have attached a few more pics from my other thread.

I agree. Except for the back of box unpunched, the lettering on the controllers and the tag on system with no serial I wouldn't have known either...

There actually is a serial on the back of the system.  I'll take a pic of that as my one pic cropped it off.


And on the SNES 102 controller, that controller lettering is correct, isn't it?

The main giveaways was the "engrish" on the back of the box (front is almost perfect), then I confirmed when I saw the standard screws holding the system together and the motherboard sealed the deal.

Back when I bought it though (almost 10 years ago now), I never paid any of that a second thought. ]]> http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=6&threadid=123988 2014-04-02T07:12:19 -05.00 tkm015 12 Originally posted by: tkm015

Yeah, I made a thread in the Price Check forum and no one really knew value there either. Unfortunately though, I already have most everything in your F/S thread.


thanks for taking a look anyway. good luck with the sale. ]]> http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=6&threadid=123988 2014-04-02T02:52:49 -05.00 tkm015 12 http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=6&threadid=123988 2014-04-02T02:50:41 -05.00 tkm015 12 http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=6&threadid=123988 2014-04-02T00:54:29 -05.00 tkm015 12
