I'm pretty sure the cart shell is actually original, but the original board has been swapped out. The label looks too sharp to be a fake, and the label on the back is correct as well. My guess is somewhere down the line, someone must of swapped out the board, kept it for themselves, then tried to sell the cart shell with another board inside in an effort to scam someone. |

Thank goodness for the kind label reproducers who put that kind of thing on there at least ... instead of just trying to pass it off as original. :-\ |
