You need 15 more games.
Why must all things be so bright? Why can things not appear only in hues of brown! I am so serious about this! Dull colors are the future! The next generation! I will never accept a world with such bright colors! It is far too childish! I will rage against your cheery palette with my last breath!

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...
http://cgi.ebay.com/RARE-SUPER-NES-NINTENDO-64-MARIO-WOOD-GAME-HOLDER-RACK_W0QQitemZ8278748520QQcategoryZ3580QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem ($10+$10 s/h)
http://cgi.ebay.com/Nintendo-Mario-Game-Video-Storage-Holder-Rack-Wood_W0QQitemZ8277923863QQcategoryZ3580QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem ($25 + $10 s/h)

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.
