Logo.
Tauro Video , also known as Tauro Video Argentina , was an Argentinian VHS distributor that eventually started selling pirated Famicom cartridges in the early 1990s under the Katon KATON [ 1]
Overview [ ] Unlike other distributors, Tauro Video chose to use a generic cover reading Original KATON for all their cartridges. A sticker indicating the game name was added most of the time. Each, if not all the cartridges, came with a small plastic box. Some of these boxes used official artwork, while others used completely original drawings.
