Ok, maybe it might be there, but it's not clear that these are Mattel versions.

My cartridge is a Mattel 3 screw, so is it this one? http://www.rfgeneration.c...nfo.pl?ID=E-027-S-00067-B

Cross reference the images on the game pages... oh wait...

Precisely... If those are Mattel versions, maybe "Mattel Version" could be added to the Variation Titles so it's clearer (Plus it'll show on the app even without an internet connection.).

Variation Titles are meant to differentiate versions in the DB already. If the Nintendo Versions aren't there, then there's no need for a Mattel Version?

Here's the one that's in my collection list (no longer matching my one): http://www.rfgeneration.c...nfo.pl?ID=E-027-S-00061-A

None of the variations seem to mention Mattel.

[Izret101]

Looks like there may also be reprints with vastly different artwork that are not listed. Unless those were covered by a screw or oval/round seal variant.
And several country exclusives not listed.

Beats me.

I did find a cart that had Mattel emblazoned across the bottom of the art. Almost every other one i looked at did not.

EDIT
ALSO!
The 2 games you offered as potentially being what you own had different part numbers. That should also help in figuring out which is potentially the right one.
Without any images in the DB or supplied of your potential variant it certainly doesn't make anything easier.

Some quick snaps:

Unfortunately, I only have the cartridge, otherwise I'd try matching barcodes.

[Shadow Kisuragi]

Alright. I'll sort it out. It's my fault the Mattel/Nintendo versions exist for the most part anyways.

[Izret101]

I checked eBay.ie earlier. Think his picks match one I saw for sale using the European Union search.

[Shadow Kisuragi]

It's sorted out, based on Apollo's changes from earlier. There's a 5 Screw and 3 Screw version of the GBR release (which had the double black seals for multiple languages), and based on Apollo's changes a 5 Screw and 3 Screw version of the NES-EB-GBR release (which had the single white seal).

I just saw the edits:

Now this one matches mine: http://www.rfgeneration.c...nfo.pl?ID=E-027-S-00067-B

Thanks Shadow! If karma was still enabled, I'd give you some.

Edit: There's a scan pending now.

[Shadow Kisuragi]

No need for karma - it's my job (well, here at least). If you don't mind, could you get the back scan submitted as Extra Media? That way, people don't question if theirs is different.

Done. I also have scans for XIII [Exclusive Pre-Order Demo] (PS2) once it gets approved.

[Shadow Kisuragi]

Cool. I'll see about that tonight. Sorting out some PC games I was given.
