There is an article specifically about the bookshelf. The internet is awesome.

Seems R-N found it Thanks.
Still unusual - A box for a game that never actually got released - There must be a story behind that. How popular was Seinfeld outside the US. It never really took off in the UK. |

It was fairly popular here in Denmark. And my all time favorite sitcom - watching it this very second with the Mrs.

You sure it isn't SNES? It looks a little thicker box than NES.
I found images online- it's obviously the SNES version. |

The SNES box looks nothing like it and is the wrong size plus the other games are NES games and as TCD pointed out the font matches the NES prototype not the SNES game.

It was very big in South Africa. One of my best shows at the time.
