I was looking trough the SNES rarity list generator and put it to: prototypes and one of a kind.
Them I saw: waterworld and smurfs as R10

Waterworld and The Smurfs for the SNES were only released in Europe.

How can I check if a cartridge is official or not ?
Should say Licensed by Nintendo also there was only one unofficial, unauthorized game for the SNES that I know of and that was Super Noah's Ark 3d, and we all know how bad that game is.

But I think there was reproduction cartridges made in the past.
Sometimes I get some games that have a terrible label on it, like part of the image is missing. Not because of damage but because the image is too big and was cut off.
For exemple, I belive I have 3 kind of lion king. I really would like to know wich one is official and original and wich one is a reproduction.
Is there a guide somewhere ?
Oh! And I have some games that have boxes and they say "made in mexico" (I'm in Brazil) but the color and everything are terrible. One of the boxes says Nintendo "Intertainment" system not "entertainment". This for sure is not official.
What do you guys think ? Is there a way ? Is there a guide ?
Evan said: those are pirates, what does it means ? reproduction cartridges ?
taken from a rom and put into a cartridge ?
Sorry for the bunch of questions but I'm really new at this hobby :)
Well unless you got the games in their PAL format (IE from Europe, How you would play them I don't know) then what evan said would be referring to a Bootleg of the games.

Well, just from my observations on the Brazillian equivalent of Ebay, there are tons of snes pirates in Brazil. Buyer beware. Those are not reproductions.
