-All English Versions have an Alphabet on the lower right corner of the back cover. It was believed that the earlier alphabets(IE: A,B,C etc) were easiest to use cheats on. But my speculation is that the letters were there to differentiate the molds for different casing colors. Colors released are speculated to be 26 as per the the alphabet. (Y is confirmed)
-Sticker states Caution: battery harmful if swallowed(you'll most likely find used ones without the sticker)
* (JAP)
- Made in China(bottom left) - released in Japan only
- NO alphabet on the back cover.
- Sticker states 電池はなめたい,口に入れたいしないでください which translates the same as the English Version.(you'll most likely find used ones without the sticker)
