Code Monkey | 2,006 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Not the top cartridge. Need to see some things: date code on the box flap date code on the last page of the manual side of the box with the warning on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know if you need a better pic there Your manuals were printed March 6 1990 and March 4 1993. Your box was printed May 25 1990. Your box likely goes with the 00306 manual and maybe the oval seal cartridge but I'd need to see the date codes from the chips inside it to know for sure. You also have a 1993 manual there which I think is pretty uncommon, that's a very late release for this game. I have one of them as well but I don't see them often. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is the inside of the oval seal cart. Strange, the 93 manual was in this one along with the cart you ruled out right away. Ive had the older manual and the cart with the seal for years. Came as a pair on ebay I believe. Thanks again for all the help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Code Monkey | 2,006 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 I'm having a hard time deciphering those chip dates but it looks like they might be June 1990 which matches that box and manual. If you want to match the cartridge with no seal, look for a circle seal box and manual with a low date code on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
