I approve.  Was this thing actually sanctioned by Nintendo?  I've never seen one before, but the racetrack isn't something a hobbyist would likely put on it.

Is it made of wood? If it is you have quite a cool piece there.

Trust me, I have plenty of games to go on it... I just have to dig out the ones that aren't Zelda.

Yup.  I also forgot to mention, the unit is a "Lazy Susan" - it spins around on a base.

Haven't the slightest clue, but I would assume it is.  Not only does it have the logo, but it even has the ® in the logo...
The bottom of the base features a "EIO" (Company?) Logo and says it's made from "Quality Beechwood from Thailand" and says "E.I.O. Sunnydale, CA".  If it's not official, it made a pretty good journey all the way to southern Illinois....

Well, TVman, you're in luck (kinda)...

I was bored, so I got to looking on eBay (I swear none of these auctions are mine!) and after finding the right thing to search for...

I'm going to assume these things are some kind of official...

Aside from that, I also found this...

($200 + 40 s/h + more).

Kinda neat.
