Saw this on ebay today and was kind of disappointed to see this for sale.  I guess the good thing is, he is not trying to over price the item.

You can always report it to ebay.

.... and watch them do nothing!

For being unofficial it tries really hard to be official.  Why is there an NEC registration card?

PLEASE NOTE THIS IS AN UNRELEASED GAME! IT IS MANUFACTURED IN EUROPE AND IS AN UNOFFICIAL GAME

I am a serious games collector and ALWAYS sell genuine, authentic games from my personal collection.

FAIL!

I offer people the professional service I also expect when I'm buyinh on eBay

DOUBLE FAIL!

due to the rarity of the game I will send it out fully insured by Royal Mail Airsure

TRIPLE FAIL!

That's a pretty elaborate bootleg, for what though, CD quality music?  A watched a video on youtube and the game looks identical to the NES version.  I get the quality Sapphire repro (still have one myself), that game goes for $600+, but this?

Here's the site

I'm pretty sure the guy's a member here and elsewhere. Fudoh maybe? If you have a Sapphire, I'm 95% sure it's a boot from this guy. If you have SFZ or Rockman there's no question. To be clear, the guy generally provides pretty high quality stuff. He also jacks work of our members here. I'll let you resolve that for yourself, but Sapphire I find far more excusable than Rockman.

the actual website is here from a gentleman in Germany and done with the most love and highest respect for the system.  They were pressed in high quality.  I actually purchased the games from him myself.....BUT

This guy at the ebay auction, I feel is trying to doop collectors.  Some of the information I feel is false. I dont know... whatever at this point.

It is hard to exactly say why I am upset, but the person who originally made them put a lot of work into to give you something amazing to just be thrown in on ebay and trying to be sold as something RARE or..i dont know... .sigh

Bastard.

YOU DIE!!

also he has two sapphire fakelers listed, but one is remaked as a re-print, and the other has not even a remark..ROLF!!

BASTARD!!

I don't know, he stole a work from one of our very members in here and released it as a commercial goods without asking for any permission or what so ever.

I don't think this is so cool or honorable, doesn't matter how many hours he spent in creating boxes, manuals spines etc.


this is the only sad point i can see here.

and what did you have expected? that these villainous goods would never end on ebay? rolf!

If the guy at the eBay auction wanted to really doop collectors, he'd make up a bunch of stories about Sapphire being a second print run, being confirmed by Hudson Soft in Japan and would sell his stacks of 'rarer than the rare original run' copies, plus SFZ and Rockman bootlegs for $100 - $200 a piece.

Was Rockman PCE ever pressed?  If so, was it done with permission?

I have always wanted to play, but have put off buying because of the behind the scenes swindling which has occurred.  I never heard of pressed copies until this thread, so apparently something new has transpired.

[Tatsujin]

read above :idea:

and no it was not pressed.
