It almost certainly contains a copy of the ROM named on the label

Buy it and find out. It's only $20. Keep us updated.

Buy it. 20 dollars gamble on 25 thousand is way better odds than the lottery
And it's still cool if it's fake

This is why I hoard everything. You see a used Pepsi can, I see a limited edition 2020 vintage item worth thousands of dollars.

What >>6367683 said, while I wouldn't say that 20 bucks is a great deal for a bootleg/repro cart it's at least physically tangible so if that matters the most to you then why not? At least you won't spend hundreds for a fake collector's item.

There used to be a site (maybe a forum thread?) that tracked known NWC carts by the serial number.

Same way I'd know you're retarded. Common sense.

Even a repro is worth more than $20 so it's not much of a risk

Is there a picture with better lighting on the DIP switch cutout?

Pretty sure the gray carts were given to the contestants. You'd have to take one just before they're all handed out, which is possible but quite unlikely.
