Yamaha CS80

That Yamaha CS smell, if it's the same one as comes from my CS-50, is also 
found in Nintendo cartridges from the 8 bit and 16 bit era. NES games, 
especially the instruction booklets, have the same distinctive smell. No 
idea what it is, some permitted compound in Japan maybe? (that's not 
permitted elsewhere perhaps)
