Thanks, remember that I also need the end label. The PAL version is windowed, as is often the case with PAL games. but even that's better than nothing. I think it would be best if you send it directly to my email and not publicly. I have no desire for this to be easily obtainable for those who want to sell repros as the real thing.

SonicAdvDX:
As bad as scammers are Satoshi, I don't think we need to be incredibly concerned about it. To be honest, even if we are able to make an absolutely flawless label for the cart that matches the original to a T, any REAL serious collector that would be the type of person to drop $1k on this game would certainly open the cartridge up and check the actual game chip. You could spot a repro chip clear as day, and eBay is pretty good about fraudulent items, if what I've heard speaks for the majority. They'll get what's coming to them.

And anyone who doesn't check... Well. Caught slippin'. :P But they wouldn't even know, and probably wouldn't be the type of person dropping fat stacks to buy it in the first place.

If anything, I think we should post it up on the site for posterity's sake. We save labels on the site all the time. It's an extremely hard game to come by, and imagine the poor sap in 12 years that has a copy of this game with a jacked up label. Finding and getting in touch with people who own the game and could scan it for you would likely be very hard. They'll spend days sifting through the internet, only to find this forum topic where someone got exactly what he needed, but it was only sent to an email address that has long since been abandoned by user. Similar things have happened to me far too many times; the information should be made free to the people. It is our duty as forward-thinking video game artwork enthusiasts! (And, really, how long do you see yourself sticking with hotmail? ;) )

Also, Arseen, if your label has a large white portion at the bottom, I'm pretty sure that means it's PAL.

I was at work so I could not check it.
But now I'm home and checked and it clearly says PAL B and NOE = PAL cart. ;)

satoshi_matrix:
I agree, reproduction labels are very easy to tell apart from authentic, vintage ones.

and even if I were to end up selling my repros, I don't think there's anything wrong with that so long as I make it clear that I'm selling reproductions and not originals. Only people on NintendoAge seem to have a problem with that. Screw them.
