I bought this cart, among others, when I was living in Brazil. BIC seems the obvious link, and I did see many other BIC carts while I was down there... I vaguely remember Portuguese localizations of Battletoads and Kid Dracula, but I may be mistaken... Not certain the correlation between VIC and BIC...
Couldn't find an appropriate place to put this thing... Dumped it with a CopyNES probably 10 years ago (or more). Should be good. ;)

oh cool, thanks for sharing!
BIC was "Brasil International Taiwan Corp", the predecessor to Realtec. They released Videomation in Famicom format themselves, plus a bunch of Codemasters games and the Game Genie (under Realtec).
VIC as far as I can tell was a Brazilian video company that released games in NES format, including BIC stuff like this Videomation and some Codemasters games, plus a bunch of regular pirate stuff as well http://nintendoage.com/index.cfm?FuseAction=Search.Results&Company_ID=569&CompanyType=P (http://nintendoage.com/index.cfm?FuseAction=Search.Results&Company_ID=569&CompanyType=P) .. guessing the only connection between VIC and BIC was that the former sourced games from the latter, but I could be wrong
