It's a multicart. Many NES/Famicom games on one cartridge. This one isn't licensed by anyone, though, and is therefore illegal. Multicarts usually have repeats of games.

So Apollo means multi ?

No, Apollo is most likely the company who made it. It probably says "Apollo" somewhere on the cart.

Two of the carts you have for sale are multicarts.

Apollo was a Greek god, he made those multicarts.

Apollo was also a company that made games for the Atari 2600. I do not know if there is a connection between them or not though.
