Here's a few pictures...
If I were to take a guess, I would say that it would be for the Mega Drive - either UK or AUS. It says "Smart Game" on the top front of the cart. Thanks for any help!

Looks a little bit like a n64 cart.

Yeah, I thought about that too, but it is JUST a little smaller.

It looks like a cart for a Leapster (or leapfrog - whatever they're called) or some other kind of kids video game/toy.
I don't think it's for a normal gaming console.

It has Mappy and Circus on it, so I'm leaning toward famiclone cartridge. I think it may be for the N64 shaped NES clone I've heard about.

I thought something like that too, that it may be for famicom. It has 30 pins on the cart - though I'm not sure how many are on a standard famicom cart.

Famicoms take 60-pin carts. So if there's 30 pins on each side of the PCB, then it might be for some sort of Famiclone.

Yeah, it has 60 pins total (both sides included)...
Oh, and by the way, I LOVE your avatar (I made that picture with MS Paint shortly after the design was released). Where did you find it?

To my knowledge, its one thats bundled with those Famiclones you see all around...

Thanks a lot!!! I'll be sure to sit on that one until whenever I get a Famicom.
And thanks everyone!

Gotta love MS Paint... Sure, it sucks compared to Photoshop, but at least its free (with every copy of Windows since '98, at least). It's what I used to make the Pinnochio Xbox 360 you see in my sig.

That's what I was going to say. I donm't know of any other systems that have 60 pins. Do you have a fami or a clone to test it in?

No, unfortunately I don't (used to have a Redant Game Axe, but sold that POS to pay for my Xbox).
