SplatterHouse?  It can be gotten quite easily for about 500yen, assuming you avoid the "big boys" in Osaka and Tokyo.

Gunhed is a little more, I'd say 2,500yen on average.

Parasol Stars IS quite expensive though.  :x

If you are located in Japan,sure you can get it (Splatterhouse,ect.. )cheap,but that doesn't apply to the rest of us "import buyers" via ebay,ect. We have to pay a bit more.

I've seen Paranoia (Psychosis) cost more as a Japanese release.

I think ninja spirit tends to cost a bit more on the pc engine.

Bloody wolf is also more expensive than the US one although the price has decreased quite a bit from a few years ago.

A loose Turbo Magical Chase HuCard actually sells for twice or more than what a complete PCE Magical Chase sells for.

I think that Digi misunderstood the thread though... :wink:

But....he is right about Soldier Blade, 8) not sure about Devil Crash. I think they both run about $20 complete.

Makes sense.  TZD kept a lid on the US price for roughly fourteen years.

I also think that TTI manufactured a ton of them since they marketed it as a system seller.

Its the equivalent of TMII Manjimaru in japan.

Yeah, good thing too.  I shudder to think how much Lords would go for if it was one of the "rare" SCD games.
