For reasons that are likely less than legitimate, All Night Nippon SMB has been popping up on eBay lately (yes, I bought a copy). However, this auction (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8232704024&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1) has something called Tonkachi Mario, which shows up on neither The Mushroom Kingdom or The Nintendo Database. What is it?

I wonder why the label on the disk shows a Zelda game.
Noticed that its also described in the auction.

Simple: It's a reused disk.
Back in the day, you could buy disks like those from game shops and go to a machine which copied a full game to your disk for a small fee. Nintendo still did that for FDS disk users until... I believe it was this year. It could've been last year, though.

Ye, I know about these "kiosks" :) Really cool system.
But wasnt this game sold retail or was it only avalible through one of these kiosks (or what you call it) ?

Last I heard, the kiosks had a ton of different FDS games. It wouldn't surprise me if that one was available.
