So...taizou showed me an auction and um

See if you can make out that text on the back of the cart...

Also, this isn't the only one:

Master FIGHTER II? SUPER FIGHTER III? It's funny to see that they even show the recolors in the catridge box. :lol:
And Street Fighter IV without street fighter characters :huh:
good finds!

...not sure if you got it but here's the thing

Those sprites on the boxes and carts are my own sprite sheets that I have made and were hosted on The Spriter's Resource.

That's pretty funny, in my opinion. Its almost as if whoever printed these didn't quite know what to put on the back, so they just happened to find your spritesheets while searching and put them on there without trimming off the credits. It baffles me how they either didn't notice or care. Also, what are those pamphlets next to the cartridges with the character sprites? (are they instructions?)

I think they are instructions since Master Fighter II did come with a manual. Although I have a weird feeling that may not be the original box given how the titles on that and the cart don't match up...

I think someone just put those stickers on old cartridges because cases are dirty but stickers are clear. And "TV Game cartridge" made of plastic of such color must be produced in the 1993-1996. But still awesome!

That's pretty hilarious that they were lazy enough to grab one of your spritesheets just to decorate the back of the box. Piracy at its finest I guess?  :clap:  I have always thought that the original boxarts from the early 90's had more effort put into them as off-model as most of them were.
