PII | 1,885 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 @guitarzombie There are current known copies of: 5-Screw Bill Elliott's Nascar Challenge Mission Impossible. On Nintendo Age there was a user called "NES GANGSTA" who had a copy of 5-screw Top Gun 2nd Mission (I have a photo of that handy if anyone is curious.) Also on NA there was purported to exist, a copy of 5-Screw Castlevania III, however there were never any pics... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when a game goes bad, who were you to contact, Nintendo? Then they'd ship the game to the publisher/developer? Your theory can hold weight, but i'm trying to figure out where there would be a 5 screw TMNT 2 cart then? Everything inside and outside of it is 100% Nintendo 'branded', like all the other licensed Nintendo carts, as opposed to Silent Service, which was put together by Konami/Ultra. No, each publisher was charged with handling its own warranties on its products. So, in your example, if you read the first inside page of a TMNT 2 manual, it details how Ultra will accept returns of defective merchandise at their "Factory Service Center." If that's where Konami/Ultra games were reconditioned/refurbished/repaired, AND if that's where they kept a whole bunch of 5 screw casings around to be used as required, well then what sort of conclusion can we draw.....?

Either way, the game was not even close to being a legit 5 Screw. It appeared someone tried to remove a real label and paste it on a 5 screw cart. It was rough around the edges, very crooked and glue residue everywhere. I will try to dig up the pictures. Its nearly impossible to remove an NES label intact - even one that is starting to peel.
