SNES FIFA International Soccer in Box
1 OF 1 · NO RESTOCK
EA Sports' FIFA International Soccer on Super Nintendo came out in 1993, published under the EA Sports label that had only formalized its brand identity the year prior. This is the cartridge-in-box configuration, CIB, one copy. The box shows that Brazilian player in yellow cutting through defenders in green and orange, and the Official Nintendo Seal of Quality appears in the lower corner exactly where it should.
1993 was the year the FIFA license changed everything. Before this release, soccer games on console moved through unlicensed knockoffs and regional exclusives with generic kits and stadium names that meant nothing. EA had already built credibility with the Genesis version in 1993, but the SNES port brought the game to Nintendo's dominant North American install base at the peak of the 16-bit format war. The World Cup was one year out. The U.S. was months away from hosting the 1994 tournament, and domestic soccer interest was climbing in ways it hadn't since the original NASL run. EA put the FIFA badge on the box, locked in the international teams, and the franchise that would eventually outsell most genres in gaming history had its foundation. The SNES version ran at 60hz on the North American cartridge, used the Mode 7 pitch perspective, and the commentary was absent in a way that made the crowd noise feel louder. Thirty-three years later, the game still plays clean.
The game that proved soccer could translate to sixteen bits without losing itself.
This copy is complete in box, which already narrows the field. The box itself is the first thing to check: corners, flap integrity, whether the cartridge slides in and out without resistance. If there is a manual present, the center staple fold will tell you how many times this was actually opened. The cartridge label should show no peeling at the edges and no marker writing on the back. If the shrink seal is still present on the outer box, do not treat that as confirmed factory seal without close inspection of the seam line at the top flap. Check the top-flap seam under light before any sealed-copy premium applies.
OWNER VERIFY: Sealed or CIB status, and whether any factory shrink seal is intact at the top-flap seam rather than a reseal.

The Nintendo Archive
This is part of Nintendo's 90s run, the era that built the shop's back wall. Nintendo shipped cartridges, plush, promotional oddities, and packaging that most buyers threw out on the way to the game. What survived, mostly by accident, ends up here. Every piece is cleaned, photographed, and listed one at a time. Nothing on the archive shelf is a duplicate.
