    The title says it all, my friends.
    I've been looking around the 'net, to no avail.

    I have my Super Famicom here and I'd love to be able to play this gem on one of my favorite machines.

    Boxed, loose, dirty, etc. doesn't matter. I'll entertain any offers. Thanks!:icon_bigg

    This game is nintendo power exclusive release...then there is no box,you can ony get it on a Super Famicom Memory Cassette..with A4 color instructions if you're lucky!
    But the only box you'd get is the blank one of the SFMC.
    No sticker either.

    Ah, I wasn't aware of that!
    In any case I'd still love to track one down...it's not incredibly rare, is it?

    Well trying find it in the wild would be a challenge, I've seen it once or twice in the last few years for around Y10,000. There are two unboxed examples on yahoo Japan going for around Y6000 and Y9000, although a mint fully boxed example went for Y5500 last month.

    So the only way to purchase this game would be through Yahoo Japan? That's a shame, I have no way to purchase items through them and some of the services like Rinkya charge really high premiums.

    Buy the US version, open up a SFC cartridge and swap PCBs with it. Or get an adapter to plug in a US cartridge. Living in China though, shouldn't you be able to pickup a SFC Copier/Backup Device pretty easily?

    there are some around here, but I do really enjoy having the "real deal" so to speak, rather than a copy :)

    Man, but how cool would it be if you got a perfect little label printed out and everything? I dunno, I just love one-of-a-kind(ish) things like that.

    I may just do that, gentlemen. Any sources where I can get some SFC-themed Super Punch Out! artwork?

    Probably have to make it... though,
    Here's a pretty classy pirate cart

    "Only for Super Game"! Haha, I like how they literally just cut out a section of the original art, you can see remnants of the title text at the top.

    Then, there's the PAL version...?

    If it didn't bother you, you could just get the cart casing from this. Obviously, the cart itself won't work on the SFC with it's region lockout chip. The chip can probably be disabled with the lifting of a pin, or even a chip-swap from the proper region. Still, it wouldn't be the NTSC-J version of the game, which I assume is what you want.

    Won't a PAL cart fit in the SFC? Then you could switcheroo the US and Euro version PCBs.
