Ty.  

Also I did notice an error in the Yo Noid picture.  The image has 2 refund cards.  A captain commando -1 refund and a -3 mega man refund card.  The -1 registration cards weren't folded.  The registration card should look like what's in my mm3, Disney adventures, and chip and dale.

Thanks I updated the Noid! picture.

Also I'm curious on the bionic commando.  I didn't think oval seals could come in a circle seal box. 

One final thing. On Wiz's list for Disney adventure the manual doesn't have a star on it.  All the manuals have a star at the end from what I can tell as I can't find one without it.

It could be Capcom had some circle seal boxes left over from before the switch to oval seal and instead of disposing of them and wasting money, decided to use them up.

Yes, I couldn't find an Adventures in the Magical Kingdom manual without a star either. It could be there were a very limited number of manuals printed without the star or the person giving Wiz that information forgot to mention the star.

I added the star to your submission, Netto.

@Netto84 Upon further inspection of you Bionic Commando pic, your cart is the round seal variant while the one on Wiz's list is oval seal. I used my copy of the game to upload the pic which matches Wiz's description exactly.

I added your other pics that were based on Wiz's list. Thank you.

You said you are the original owner of Mega Man 3 and 5? Does that mean you opened it from factory sealed?

If you're pretty sure Double Dragon II and III are 100% complete I will add them as well.

Does Duck Tales 2 dust cover feel rough to the touch?

Thanks @Netto84

The two pics you posted match Wiz’s list.

I will add them to the lineup this evening.

On Ebay, I purchased Rockin Kats 100% complete for $35 buy-it-now, free shipping. It was in very good condition. (2001)

In the wild, I found a 100% complete Sega Genesis system and 100% complete PS1 system sitting at the curb for trash pick-up. Everything was in very good condition. (2012)

Not sure what my best haul on NA was.

I can't see most of the codes, but Bases Loaded 4 should have these inserts:

Box: NES-BD-USA

Cart: NES-BD-USA

Manual: NES-BD-USA

Poster: Jaleco Poster double sided featuring Jaleco games: JAL-NES-US-7

Jaleco Major Player's Club Membership / Warranty Card: JAL-NES-US-5

Epilepsy Warning Sheet: NES-DOC-USA

Nintendo Power Advert: GP-NES-US

Black Dust Sleeve

You can find what inserts go with many NES games here:

Thanks @dogbowl

He says he received them in factory sealed condition. He also said that the Silver Surfer and Wolverine games should still have all the inserts they had when they were new.

I'm inclined to believe his Silver Surfer and Wolverine are 100% complete games.

There's no doubt in my mind that it is a factory sealed game, otherwise I wouldn't have presented to the community.

The contents still had that unique NES new smell.

VGA wouldn't grade a re-sealed game. They only grade factory sealed games and 100% complete games.

There was nothing to indicate it was a re-seal. Everything looked legit to me.

But please feel free to purchase and open additional factory sealed Batman Return of the Joker copies. There are a handful available to purchase as I type this on Ebay.

Well, buy another sealed copy of Return of the Joker and see if the results differ.

That would provide more clarity.

I've updated the the list on the opening post with Adventures of Lolo 2. I opened a factory sealed copy myself.

Guessing it is the same with SIlver Surfer.

I can't find the correct inserts anywhere. So far I'm sure the Arcadia business reply and the Virgin Games foldout poster should be inside the box.

I don't know if you seen this yet: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/nes/916386-nes/faqs/49943

That documents all the sealed NES games our community has done so far.

Deleting it as I type this.

What would the correct contents be for a non-hangtab, circle seal copy??

No one has opened a factory sealed Solomon's Key and documented it. So nobody knows for certain what it contains.

Can we get a residue close up, from some diff lighting angles? If not too much trouble. Im interested now lol, it looks like a SOQ? sticker from what I could see. 

There is no residue. There is just a slight circular imprint on the front of the dust sleeve.

Can you confirm if this is a NES-P48-USA box or a NES-48-USA box?

Also, is the cartridge manufactured by Sunsoft, or Nintendo?

 

I have a theory that the rarer H-Seam copies are the NES-48-USA boxes manufactured by Nintendo, and the more "common" NES-P48-USA copies are the ones manufactured by Sunsoft.

The cartridge is manufactured by Sunsoft. The box code is in the opening post.

The cartridge’s date code is 9233 if that helps.

The box and manual don’t have any date codes.

I also noticed the circular imprint on the front of the dust sleeve.

I’ve never seen a brand new Batman Return of the Joker with a H-seam. 
 

It has a red foil Nintendo brand dust sleeve.

It didn’t come with any inserts. Which inserts did yours come with OG CIB?

Opened a VGA graded Batman Return of the Joker and have added it to the list. Surprising, it had a foil Nintendo brand dust sleeve.

I've updated the list with Adventures of Lolo 3, which I opened a sealed copy of.

I have a "Zelda 2 - The Adventure of Link" CIB to post, have you decided on a standard for the pictures?

For this thread, a standard way to display pictures isn't necessary. We were saying if a database was created, a standard way to display pics would be a good idea.

Let's see your Zelda II pic.

Bump. I  also have various things I could trade for this.
