Nice and neat that is kerb. I bet you were praying those Ikea measurements were exact! Looks like you had a few mm to play with either side.

...my measurements weren't that good. a few mm between the walls yup but not the skirting boards. Needed to buy a 'multi tool' yokie to trim one a little for one of the legs to slot into All nice and neat though, even the better half was impressed which is a first.

AC/Plug adapter coming to move that amp in more, currently a Euro plug Chromecast Audio power adapter is hanging out of the switched power out of the amp. With it sorted will mean the amp and move in more be out of eye shot a little and give me back some desk space. Will see how the hot work station and soldering iron fit into the setup tomorrow if I get a chance.

Leaves me now to clean up the rest of the room - think my Naomi cab is going to be long term loaned to my work place along with that Atomiswave cab I bought awhile ago. Will see what i will do with the other consoles and the Sony TV, might keep something setup. I think I will move the XboxOne onto that desk though.

Xbox One is a little extreme as a paper weight, no?

That's a sweet looking rig! Do you do a bit of music production or do you just really like your sound?

Just like to have a good set of speakers and since I will most likely hook up consoles on this desk then I might as well have a good setup the speakers/amp had been gathering dust not really being used other than testing Chromecast Audio units for while.

What speakers are they? Also is that the amp in the bottom right?

I'm not sure if the post offices where throwing this against walls or your man didn't put enough fcuking bubblewrap but anyways I'm very angry.

I'm just going to swap the case from a pal snes now..

I have a spare PAL SNES shell, if you want one. If that's a Super Famicom, you might be able to keep the bits that make it a Super Famicom and use the SNES shell to replace the broken parts.

My minds gone blank, what was it again?

Retr0gamer

Still not 100% sure if this is legit or a repro, some help would be nice.

There's writing on the rom chip, just hard to make out.

How does the sticker artwork look up close?

o1s1n

Well the usual signs of a fake, ie eeproms, tsop adapters, dodgy wiring/soldering aren't there. And it's just a regular mask rom.

Have you compared it to a legit photo of the game board?

Retr0gamer

Perfect really, in good nick but also has wear, you can see indents in it in the right light.

Retr0gamer

I'm looking for a photo of the game board but can't find one, are there any databases like the way the Neo geo has?

o1s1n

Snes central has a list of all the cart PCB types and photos of them here under PCB info.

Edit - so cross reference the PCB serial code on the top left of the board. (the one part the flash happens to be obscuring in your photo! )

Are you sure it's SSHVC-AIAJ-01 and not SSHVC-AIAJ-0?

Here's a pic of the PCB:

Can't see because of the shiny, but does it have the Nintendo logo on the pcb on the left hand side like the others above?

It does indeed. You can see it if you squint really hard

The serial on the chip (SSHVC-AIAJ-01) is that for the game, so I'd be more than sure it's legit.

Retr0gamer

I couldn't see in the bad light downstairs, there's no 1 on the end. The chip looks exactly like the one in that picture, exact same serial numbers on it.

o1s1n

If it's a fake then the pirates have officially gotten their hands on Nintendo production hardware and we're all boned. You can rest easy I reckon.

BTW, where'd you get that beauty?

Corholio

It looks fairly legit to me. The cart has sold a few times for just above the $200 mark in the US so I would say it's almost certainly legit.

Retr0gamer

Thanks for all the help lads. Seems legit then, everything adds up. Was a bit worried that the PCB had 1990 on it but seeing the other PCB and the fact that the same PCB is used in a few late life SNES games is reassuring. Seen the game go for around the 500 dollar mark so took a chance on a new seller and won it for 120. Alarm bells went off because the seller is selling another that looks like a classic repro, the artwork is a bit off compared to others I've seen while the one I have lines up perfectly.

He was on to me today looking for feedback if it arrived, maybe selling a real one, getting good feedback and hoping he can sell some repro off the back of it???
