Key Features
High brand recognition, essential fighting game for SNES collectors, includes original Nintendo-branded dust cover, and label code SNS-XW-USA is clearly visible.

High confidence. Correct 'Nintendo' engraving on the dust cover, proper label texture and font, and the 'SNS-XW-USA' product code matches official records. The 'Made in Japan' stamp is correct for this era.
Flaws to Note
Minor surface scratches on the gray plastic; slight yellowing possibility on the back (not visible in photo); internal battery for saves may be dry (requires soldering to replace).
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (highest reach), Mercari (low fees), or local Retro Game Stores. Collectors on eBay specifically look for labels in this clean condition.
Selling Tips
Photograph the back of the cartridge and the gold contact pins to prove lack of corrosion. Mention 'authentic label' and 'includes dust cover' in the title. Ship in a box, not a poly mailer, to protect the fragile plastic tabs.
