Canadian NES Basic Set


Recommended Posts

I'm hoping someone here knows more about these.

I have this Canadian NES Basic Set but the console, box and manual seems to be mismatched. The box and manual both have the 1-800-255-3700 phone number but the console has the (416) 252-GAME phone number. Also the console is labeled Mattel Canada, but there is no mention of Mattel on either the box or the manual.

I found an ebay listing that also has this same mismatched setup. Does anyone know if these were how it originally came, or did someone piece them together?

I also have another version of the box with a "Bonus 2nd Controller Included" sticker and it came with a later version of the manual. The previous owner wrote the serial number of the original console on the front of the box and it doesn't match the console included, so I know that this one was pieced together.

I'm not sure but I am thinking that the original console may be a late model with the red phone number sticker and the sticker with both the US and Canadian regulations, like this one:
