So i found a new set of drawers i never saw in my fav shop and they had imported N64 games.
I was pretty surprised so i got some of the good ones.
F-Zero X
Super Smash Bros
Mario Kart 64

Also got some PS longbox games
Revolution X
Romance of the III Kingdoms IV
Wing Commander III Heart of the Tiger

and some NES stuff
Castlevania
Game Genie

All of that stuff is CIB to my knowledge.

But this new stuff leaves me with a few questions...

Why are their small pieces of foam block in some of the longbox PS games (the cardboardish ones only i think)

Does anyone else have Wing Commander III and if so are 3 of the CDs in paper sleeves?

What is generally comes with a Japanese N64 game? (Paperwork etc)

And is it true i can play my Jap N64 games thru game shark or by just taking the face off my N64?

I'd assume they are present to reinforce the cases.  I've also only found them in the full cardboard & half cardboard/half plastic longboxes.  The size is probably so small so that you don't have to take the foam out when grabbing the game CD or putting it back.  

Nice find by the way with the import games Wink

I have Wing Commander III and yes, 3 of the disks are in paper sleeves.

I think the foam is to fill empty space in the box and keep the disk from popping of the spool. I looked in a couple long boxes I have and the inside is notched so the foam lies across the center of the disk.
