It's a Nintendo cartridge holder swivel (like a lazy suzy), which holds 16 NES cartridges in sleeve. On top, there is Raccoon Mario with tail in floating position (like the cover of the Super Mario Bros 3 NES Game) as well as a Nintendo logo trademark officially stamped "R". Can anybody tell me where this item came from and maybe of it's value? Any help would be appreciated, thanks. , Edited by cyberswat, Mar 5 2011, 03:30 AM.

	Tanks

I don't know if it'll help (always worth a shot), but I'm not able to find anything about it. No offense, but that doesn't really look like something that Nintendo would release... It looks more like a project that someone completed. Where exactly did you get it from? Edited by WhatTheFruit, Mar 5 2011, 11:43 PM.

Both logos "Racoon Mario" and "Nintendo" are manufactured stamped (embedded), not hand painted, but the cartridge holder itself looks like it was professionally hand made with a 360 rotating swivel on bottom so that you could spin it looking for your cartridges. This mechanism is made of either oak or pine. I have recently emailed Nintendo World to see if they know where this item came from... will further post once I get a reply, thanks to all for the feedback.

I know ppl who have bought things on ebay similar to that and then found out that the seller printed the designs themselves. It might be authentic but since theres almost nothing on the web about it, it's probably not.. It's still really sick though and your lucky to own it!

I've been a member since CN came here to the states and i haven't seen or heard anything about it. Plus Club Nintendo hasn't been around long enough for an NES accessory, unless it was done as a collector throwback type of thing.
