Playing Ice Climber last night from one of my multi carts, I realized something which is quiet interesting.
Its pretty funny how NoA (Nintendo of America) has censored the reality of a lot of Nintendo games before released in their country and then passed them on to europe!

I dont think this requires further explanation.. look at the screenshots.., the top one is the original Japanese version of the game.. and the bottom, is the American and European version..

Wondering what this is?

Its the famicom Disk system, used in conjunction with the japanese Nintendo......

The one depicted is actually the one being sent to me. In collectors mint condition.. I read on a homepage that its near impossible to get ahold of a Disk System nowadays, and especially in this condition!!

And here is the status of my transaction.. from my favourite japanese guy!

Hello.

> What are you up to in the meantime? Working ? Studying? Playing famicom
> games?

My work is recently busy and a famicom game does not play recently.

***Attention***
There was a telephone from a bank today.

She speaking..
-This is the first payment from overseas to you.
-The necessary procedure cannot be taken until it can check that it is him

I must go to a bank with seal and a driver's license.
However, a bank does not do business until after 4 days.
(Next Monday is public holiday.)

And I am not in a house for 3 days, in order to attend a relative's marriage
ceremony.
I send mail to you again 72 hours after.

I appreciate your perfect bank dealings very much.

Best regards.
