I think it's a pirate. The box shows the NES adapter on it, which wouldn't be needed for the famicom version. And it's all in English.

It's the little things that are suspicious, not a single Nintendo logo, but Codies are listed twice - I have a feeling they used to just use one logo.

I'll check out my boxed NES version when I get home and compare it with the pics and note any differences.

It's legit. BIC appears to have been licensed by Codemasters to release most of the Codemasters titles -- though, of course, Nintendo never licensed them. I've seen a few of them.

If its pirate, then why pirate cart contain original Codemasters mapper chip inside?

It's not a pirate, but it wasn't licensed by Nintendo. That's what I just said. BIC was the distributor of the Codemasters titles.

Wow, not licensed, nice.
I'd actually love me a copy of that.

I have a few BIC famicom games. They are the same as the US version released by Camerica. Some of the games are also released by Realtec. I have a Super Robin Hood and Soccer Simulator as a single carts made by them.

Oooohhh cool! I love the Big Nose games, though the original is the best! I actually owned a CIB NES Big Nose Freaks Out, but I seem to have lost it... :( Oh well, the original is still the best to me!

What a sweet Famicom copy!

The seller has a copy of Big Nose The Caveman as well and a job lot of pirate carts. I would really like the Big Nose games, but it seems you need a Polish bank account to set up an account.
