One is included in the base set of 506 and is not included as a variant. Whichever one you want to consider in the base set, doesn't matter.. Likely the one that's not currently on the checklist. There are only 4 variants which I've already included in my count. Edited January 17, 2021 by samsamsamsmasmasma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The list in the initial post has a count of 120 variants. There has been 8 new variants that have been brought out over the past 2ish months which I have attached a photo that I personally have on hand. The would bring the total to 128. However, the initial count of 120 includes 5 entries that I would include in the base set of 506 DuckTales ('DMG' Label) Q Billion (Black Nintendo Logo) Rescue of Princess Blobette, The (Error Serial No.) Space Invaders: The Arcade Game DMG-SP-USA-1 Wario Blast: Featuring Bomberman! Rev-1 https://imgur.com/a/6FHKkcb So my variant count is 123. That Yoshi one is interesting if we decide to count it that would make the count 124. I have the translucent one in my collection. I do see a few of the non-translucent ones listed. This does appear a potential border case in my opinion, mostly because I don't want to look for others. What is also interesting about the Yoshi one is that the cropping is different between the two. I'm not sure if this just happens typically between production runs or not. The variant count is back up to 10 million I have decided when ever someone shows me something in this thread I did not know about, I will return the favor.

Of the two, and the many carts I tested, it doesn't seem they ever took the time to update the ROMs. And that makes sense. These companies were simply buying the rights to finished software and only making the minimal changes to get them out the door. Plus, they probably saved a lot of money not buying the source from these original original studios and just buying rights to use and modify the packaging/branding material and just rereleasing the final build ROM. You also had SVG Distribution re-release games. They only changed the boxes/manuals. Nothing else. Most of the Absolute GB games were re-released by them.

The Yoshi catalog code DMG-YO-USA. while look at the labels for the 2 player link logo i can across Yoshi that had a translucent outer edge of the game pac logo. at first i thought this was normal but after look around the later prints have a non translucent boarder. i was thinking this might just be a play on the lighting. so had to order one. it arrived yesterday and it is confirmed that the one i received is no longer translucent.. as for images. Looks like I have the "Transparent Game Link Icon" variant of the cart. Pretty interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creepsthething | 9 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 One thing I've always noticed is that most of the DMG-BEAN(K)-02 boards are manufactured in November 1995, and then attached to them is a ROM chip with a year of 1996 (and with the letters in the circle usually being Hs). Sometimes they manufacture it in 1995, and sometimes 1996, but most of the time when it's manufactured in 1995, it's November. How come? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samsamsamsmasmasma | 16 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 (edited) Idk but it almost looks like the difference between these labels is one is more transparent. Even with the solid looking logo you can still see slight color variations of the background underneath. Could it possibly be just a result if disproportionate fading? It does still bring in to question why you don't see this on other releases. Edited February 9, 2021 by samsamsamsmasmasma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
