Thanks for the lead. 

As far as the game's origins go, I am really new to the world of Famicom and just inherited these from the guy I got my system from.  Is there a list I can cross reference as to what was officially released to help me weed out pirates?  I am happy to take pics of any carts folks are interested in as well.

You can always tell by the cart shell, heres the most common pirate style, the square:

Not all pirates come like this, theres also the rounded edge cart, and theres even pirates that look like official famicom games. You just need to hang around, research, and in no time youll be a famicom champion! .....and fyi, pirates still retain value and some are worth a shit ton, so just cause something may be a pirate does not mean its worthless.

Thanks, I have a few that were obvious pirates (F-1, Super Charger, 99999 in 1), but the Bond looked legit.

yeah, its just in a famicom style shell then. Was never an official Japanese Famicom release.  Id actually be interested in buying it off you. Can you PM me a pic of the cart? also all multi-cart whatever-in-1's, are always pirates.

Now that I look at JB jr I can tell it's a boot.  I figured the xxx in 1's were.
