Fake or real game
robbievgb:
Funny how the auction the article linked to one that went for $999, and he saw it sold for $499. I guess yellow test cartridges are not recession proof.

Dont worry I wasn't planning on buying that it's just that if it was a fake I would of quote it on ebay so he wouldn't fool anybody
BonzerChicken:
It might not be ive seem people starting to remake games on their own and they us ordered plastic to do so and maybe someone just remade the link game. But then again im probably wrong

This is a test cartridge that Nintendo Service Centers used to diagnose problems with an NES. Zelda uses every button on the controller (and buttons from the second controller too), can test a system's screen refresh, reset function, and is very sensitive to to the 2A03 processor being correct.
Zelda 1 is still regularly used to measure the worth of Famiclones and NESclones today; Even if they claim Zelda will work, NOAC clones will display various graphical garbage and have incorrect sound. Only complete clone systems (cloned exact hardware) won't have this problem.
As well, Playchoice 10 Arcade Machines had yellow cartridges as did Sharp C1 TV/Famicom hybrid, but Zelda was never among games made for those systems.
