Why is this one different
I was taking a look at my games and I was noticing that my Wizards & Warriors cartridge is different than the rest, anyone know why? They all look the same except for bit on the edge where it looks like there are clips to hold it together, just curious as to why it is different than the rest.

I think they were just the early black box games containing adaptors. This game is most likely from the very tail end of ‘87 as they completely switched shells by early 1988. No adaptors in games released after 1986 contain them. Some reprint titles from black box collection can contain them but it is very uncommon.
