The sparkly nes sleeves

[charitycasegreg]

I have about 200 nes sleeves for my games and while the rest that say nintendo on the side are just plain red paint, I have 4 that say nintendo in sparkly letters. What games came with these sleeves?

This is just a guess i don't really have any idea but maybe the rerelease games?

I have a complete Zoda's Revenge that has a sleeve like that. I think they're from the last few NES releases in the mid-90s.

i got those kind of sleeves with the classic series re- release of zelda 2(gray cart) and metroid(yellow label).

I got a Kirby's Adventure with one of those sleeves.

correcto mundo. Also as stated, they came with the later released games (by nintendo, not the third part companies). However, if you look closely at some of the later released games (i.e. Alien 3 or what not) they would have sleeves that were plan black, but the sleeves would be quite nice and crisp looking, not the dull regular black look.

Then theres another thing I remembered, some nintendo sleeves were thicker and some were flimsier. Whats with that? Prolly just for later released games.

I have NO clue what anyone means by a 'sparkly' case.

Pics please?

the above is what we were discussing. the one on the left is the sparkly one, whereas the one on the right is not. the letters and the rest of the sleeve look crisp.

i hope the pictures worked out okay and people can tell the difference

They were on the late release games. My Mega Man 6 came with one as well as Zoda's Revenge :)
