Some of these WATA descriptions just raise more questions rather than make it informative.. I mean, is it or isn’t it edible fiber?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N64 games are DELICIOUS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the first I’ve heard of a game box mentioning its own composition. I wonder how many gamers back then would actually give a hoot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how many gamers back then would actually give a hoot? It actually (probably) says 78% *recycled* fiber. Eco thing from the 90s (and still common today), boasting about how recycled your thing is. It's on most/all Nintendo boxes from like the mid 90s till about 2002, I think. WATA likes to note it as it varies between box styles, but I think it's entirely redundant with the box style 99.9% of the time (all boxes of a particular style always have the same claimed recycled fiber content). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
