Metal Slug 3 Bootleg or Not?

Can anyone confirm if this Metal Slug 3 is bootleg or not?.

Thanks Ace.

Looks legit to me. Codechip and correct numbers on the other parts as far as I can tell.

Edit: There is also a legit version with a small daughterboard. Like mine: http://www.snutt.net/arkad/inside/mslug3_inside.gif

Legit.

I'm not a scholar or anything when it comes to spotting boots, but why would you even suspect this cart of being one?

Legit:

Looks similar to MS4(The latest in REAL carts. Not a boot, it's a MS4 with snk and playmore boards)

Well the rom markings are different to the ones I've seen. Also there are graphics faults.

Thanks all for the confirmation.

It's definitely a legit cart. As for the graphic problems, I'd try a good cleaning or a bit of playing with the cart in the slot. Most games I get, especially new games, will take a good amount of work to get them up without graphical glitches. Once they work though, they are normally good to go. Clean the cart contacts really well with contact cleaner or isopropyl alcohol. Also, insert and remove the cart into the slot a fair amount of times, usually more than 10 does the trick... and if all else fails, while the machine is on gently tweak the cart to see if you can get the graphical glitches to go away.

Ahh man, that daughterboard is awesome. I've never seen anything so rigged come from SNK.

On another note, didn't the SVC Chaos AES cart have some sort of daughterboard for the audio? I believe I read that somewhere...
