I was thinking maybe MSX, but Master System sounds ok, considering the games supposedly on it...strange that it is SMS size and not MKIII size.

I haven't heard of a Dragonball or Ranma game for Mastersystem.

Many pirate multicarts will put something on the front related to an anime or another game that has nothing to do with what's actually on there. It could end up being a copy of Black Belt or Shinobi for instance, maybe with a sprite hack - maybe not - but in the pirate world that would pass for justification for that label.

First of all, it's definitely not a Mark III cart since those are considerably narrower and have fewer pins anyway (42, I think), so you don't need to make an adapter in order to test it out. Just pop it into your Master System...assuming it fits into a SMS with that cartridge design.

Whatever the internal board is, it's obviously in a pirate Famicom cartridge's case. While that might be something pirates would do if they had extra Famicom cart cases lying around, I wouldn't be surprised to find out that it's just a standard and common SMS game that someone (possibly the person who sold it to you) stuck into that case because the board that was in there wasn't working any more.

Some pirate Master System stuff has come out of Hong Kong, though. Master System format, not Mark III. But never in Famicom cartidge cases.
