This auction, ignoring its incorrect description, has some interesting pictures:

It appears to be the Famicom Basic manual, but printed in Chinese.  Does anyone know the origins of this?

How can you tell it's traditional Chinese and not Japanese kanji?  I saw this and was going to buy it , but it's overpriced as it is.

There's no Japanese kana in any of the screenshots.  Also, I have the Japanese manual and can compare the pages.

It's just the FB manual.  It's nothing particularly special aside from the fact that it's not written in Japanese.  It will absolutely not show you how to program Super Mario Bros as mentioned in the auction description :D
