Question about disc system games.
So I own two disc system games and my copy of Metroid has a barcode with a matching FMC-MET but the numbers below do not match the book. I wanted to know if that is normal? As I have seen listing with no barcode stickers and games having a different code not matching the game. My other disc system game is Castlevania and it does not have a barcode sticker so I don't know it if it should have one or not.

Broken game purchased on the cheap. Any bangers here?
Paid like $60 all together on the famicom and SFC games here.
Edit: bangers other than Mario, megaman and batman. I should have mentioned that I'm familiar with those.

Translation on Original Hardware
Hello. I am looking to buy both epilogue operators and am super excited! One use case I have for them is to be able to apply translation patches to Japanese games like Mother 3 on GBA and the Super Famicom Fire Emblem games and play them back on native hardware. I saw the discussion about live translation being in the pipeline, but I was curious what being able to get the patched rom to run on original hardware would be like.
Would you rip the rom from the game, patch it, and write the translated rom to a flash cart? Could you also use the sd based flash carts and use the operator as the ripping device?
I’m very new to all of this so any advice is appreciated! Just want to use my cartridges and original hardware as much as possible.

can someone tell me what this game was(pretty sure NOT famicom wars)
I can never seem to find images of it so here's my text explanation.
NES game released in JPN(not sure of ROW), sometime in the mid to late 80s.
top down grid and turn based war, similar to famicom wars.
blue vs red, similar to famicom wars. I think your characters default to blue, enemy red.
you are all generic robots, similar to super robot wars, but none are characters from any TV series.
at some time during the progression tree, your commander unit gets the ability of flight and a gatling gun, becoming completely OP and ruining the game balance
I'm sure if I actually find the title it's one of those memories better left in the past, but would love to give it another playthrough.
Thanks in advance!

What could it be?
This is a foto of a strange unlicensed Famicom cartridge that was found on Baidu. Any ideas what could it be?

Layla/レイラ (Famicom, dB-SOFT, 1986)
+ only a handful of soundtracks, but I found the music very addicting, especially the opening BGM
+ one of the relatively few early video game titles featuring a female protagonist (other than Samus from Metroid, Athena from Athena, Valis from Valis, Lucia from The Wing of Madoola).
+ a password feature to record and resume progress
- floaty runs/jumps
- very frustrating maze design in some levels
- no Western port (yet, it is English-friendly)

Famiclone SuperCom72, impossible to power on
Hi there,
I finally found my cousin's Famiclone known as the SuperCom 72, but I'm sadly unable to turn it on.
Any expert around here who would be able to say if something inside simply looks off ?
It sadly wasn't well stored... So I'm afraid that heat, humidity, etc. just got to it with the years :-/
This console was my very first experience with video games, so I would love to be able to resurrect it.
Any feedback is much appreciated, thank you :-)
PS: sorry for the aggressively dusty and rusty looks of the inside 😬

I found the 4000-point Moai Easter Egg in Castlevania NES - STAGE 20 Second Quest - 35 years later [Original Hardware + CRT Proof]
Después de 35 años, por fin puedo comprobarlo.
Jugando Castlevania 1 en hardware original de NES + CRT en México.
ETAPA 20 (versión de la segunda misión de la Etapa 2). Si te quedas quieto en la plataforma de ladrillo justo antes del pasillo de Medusa, aparece el Moai secreto de Gradius, que vale 4000 puntos, por 2 segundos.
NO aparece en la primera misión.
Marca de tiempo: 0:50 en mi clip. Las líneas de exploración vienen de mi CRT, o sea, esa es la prueba de que es hardware real.
¿Alguien más lo grabó? Se mencionaba en guías de texto antiguas, pero nunca vi una prueba en video clara.
Hardware: NES original + CRT - Chiapas, México

All night Nippon
Hi guys. I'm thinking in getting a copy of this game, I have a repo already but I would like to have an original one. I've researched, but I can't find a proper way to identify if a copy is legit or not. Is there any way to identify a real one?
Thanks!

would something like this work for connecting rf to a pal tv?
its very hard to find information on connecting the original style of famicom to a tv outside the US, so its very confusing for someone in the UK (especially since this is my first time dealing with an rf console) I plan on modding my console in the future so this is just for testing, if the image isnt clear or lacks colour as it tends to do when hopping between regions then im fine with that
.
.
(also im super confused about if I need the official rf switch or not as I did try plugging the console into my tvs antenna port and tuning to 91.25 but I assume it was unmodulated and couldn't pick anything up?)
