Yeah, my current one is old and worn. Adds some character though.

i just checked my PO box and it was in there a day early ! So, here it is!

to be honest i do not know much about this game, but i hear it is rare.  And being the mario collector I am i had to buy it!
 Would be interested to know what it is worth.

Nice! And here's everything you need to know about it: http://www.mariowiki.com/All_Night_Nippon_Super_Mario_Bros.

Cool. Yeah it's sort of rare... I would say more on the uncommon side. I got one for about 3,000 yen.

Nevertheless, definitely something to have for a Mario collector. Congrats!

Eventually I would like to get a nice, boxed cart repro of the game... but that's going to be tough and an expensive endeavor.

After searching high and low for almost a year, I was finally able to, with the help of a fellow collector, get my hands on a copy of Gravity Armor Metal Storm!

[FamicomFreak]

Wowzers! That's an awesome find! I'm not worthy of pic! Waaaa!

Not to rain on your parade or anything, but that game without the box or instructions these days is almost definitely fake.  Especially if you got it for less than like four or five hundred dollars.  There are passable scans of the label and sleeve out there that I have seen people on Yahoo use to pass off "rewritten" copies.  Most of them also say something in the description like "I'm not sure if the label is original" or something like that and price it at 3000 yen.

Check the upper left corner of your disk label there for example, looks kind of weirdly rounded off doesn't it?  You could also look at the crease of the card insert up near the top.  It's kinda hard to see in just the picture but it looks more "rounded" or floppy compared to the official harder cardstock.
