Well there is one on Ebay right now on a KOFR2 and I got close up pics. Here is what SNKUSA seems to have done for all release titles that were available by mail order except for Bust a Move.

I thought all US titles came in those cardboard cases.

When they were available by mail order, they were distributed in hard cases. From what I can tell, all titles were just UK/Euro titles resold over here with the stickers except for one. The Bust a Move hard case has an insert with a printed ESRB due to the name change. I'm sure someone around here has a pic of that.

Here we go.

Notice the Baseball Stars Color with a similar sticker in the upper left, and the Bust a Move with a printed insert in the lower right.

One more thing, I know SamuraiX sent me a pic of his MS1st mission that was a clamshell and had the US office address on the back, I'll have to get that pic from him again.

Updating this post with Biomotor_Unitron's Bust a Move US clamshell.

Sorry to make this a pic fest, just wanted to put some others I've seen. These two are faked.

They have a KOF R-2 like that at one of the stores in my city, is it worth more than the normal cardbord box R-2?

I can post that pic eventually with the other cart pics since I bought that cart off of Nate :D

If it has those stickers it may be worth a bit more to someone here, I was looking for snaplock games with ESRBs for the longest time and none turned up. But if it doesn't have those stickers its worth whatever a UK KOFR2 goes for.

And thanks D-Lite, I know his didn't have an ESRB but had the address of the US offices I thought that was weird
