The cartridge measures approximately 4.5 inches in height, 3 inches in width, and 0.75 inches in thickness.

Below the title, the Nintendo 64 logo is visible, and further down, the official Nintendo seal of quality and the 'Teen' ESRB rating are clearly legible. Below the ESRB rating is a small 'R' in a circle, likely indicating Rare, the developer. The visible condition is excellent, consistent with the 'Mint' additional context provided. There are no apparent scratches, scuffs, or discoloration on the plastic casing. The label is clean, fully adhered, and shows no signs of peeling, fading, or creasing.
