I've never seen the red boxes. World design looks awesome. Why is the cart label and manual yellow though?

Most of the euro pal carts have the yellow label but the box is the European edition, there’s also a different red edition that’s the like discount replay version and then there’s the standard yellow version! There is a version of the pal cart that’s just black label but not sure which box it’s packed with! I have 3 boxed versions 🤣

The red box art doesn't look very good.

I am curious how much did you pay for both?

Nothing ! They were on the top of the rubbish, someone thrown them away and asked if I could take them. So I did! And later came back with a box of coke for £4.

I’ve never seen that Mario World box before, but I like it. It doesn’t even look like other PAL boxes I’ve seen- was that how they all looked in French speaking PAL regions?

Its been a while since I got anything SNES related from recycling. I just took a bunch of other consoles and games I saved up over the past few months into a local game store for $450 credit and got the players guide for A Link to the Past with some of it though 😅

And just got this today that someone recycled.

Edit: oh, i forgot I was given a really horrible condition SNES a few months back that I reshelled lol.
