Title: What's up with this SNES warranty sticker?
Post by: Slowman on November 24, 2012, 04:39:07 PM
I was going through my closet and just noticed the lower sticker in the picture is different from possibly every other SNES that's ever passed through my hands.  I've always seen the upper sticker.  Or maybe I'm just not as observant as I think I am?

Could have been a unit that was sent to Nintendo for service back in the day.
I had an NES with a similar sticker inside the door, and that was always my guess as to where it came from.

I've had the same experience as NES_Rules. As a matter of fact one of the NES' I have up for sale right now has this sticker under the hood.

I'm guessing that these were repaired at a Nintendo Service Center.

That seems like the most plausible explanation; I'll go with that.  Thanks. :)

I'll see if my Wii U has one of those...
