Hi world.. one question.. I see photos on internet of famous NINTENDO WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP 1990 nes catridge.. But it's different.. I can see any switches in upper left front of catridge.. what it is???. what is utility of this device???... is first time that i see a nintendo catridge with switches..

It is to adjust the time settings of the competition. The official tournament time to get through all three games is 6 minutes, 20 seconds (give or take a fraction of a second).

I believ you move only switch three to get this setting, iirc.
