Before you buy

This is a Japanese cartridge, so its shape differs from a Western cart and it fits a Western console only with an adapter or after removing two plastic tabs in its slot. It saves to a battery inside the cartridge, so ask the seller to confirm a save holds; a replaced battery is a normal repair, not a sign of a fake. Ask for a photo of the board before paying.
