I've seen official stickers under the shrinkwrap on sealed boxes (Falcon, Darkwing Duck, Ys III) and cases (Cotton), but never on internal packaging and they never looked anything like that. I also have a number of French-Canadian games and I've never seen stickers like that. And it looks like the game has a black tray rather than the standard white that came with most copies of Final Zone II. I'd say this copy has changed hands a few times and was "refurbished" somewhere along the way.

This one looks familiar, so sorry if it's been posted before: a pretty well beat up TG-CD box with inserts for a steal at only $299.95 with free shipping!

you can be sure any seller that has gamer and store in there name is charging a heck of a lot for this stuff.  Wonder what he'd charge for duo box?
NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

It's worth $200 simply for the "Chuck's--Old Boxes Inside" note written in red pen on the side panel of the box!

It's already sold.  That was my auction, I just used a stock image.  Hurry up and send me the hu card I don't want to get a negative rating.  Better yet, could you just ship it to the person that bought it for me?  :lol:

Not a chance I'm selling Bonk 3.  I'll play it until it is worn out.

Shipping:  Not Available to Canada.   ](*,)

Why does it seem like everyone in the USA is scared to ship over the border?  Americans in New York will ship to the tip of Florida or the west coast of California, but they won't ship to Toronto.  :?

Was that a BIN?  I can never figure out how to see the original auction after it's ended.

Damn, Hope you picked this one up!  Unbelievable.


Yeah, and once I get it, I'm going to relist it on Ebay for $635.25. It won't sell at that price, but I'll list it every week anyway.

j/k. I wish I picked this up, would make going for a TG fullset easier.  Plus, I made a TAS of this game, so I have a particular affection for it and its horrible engrish.
Hey, you.

Demos discs yay!


Once again "only played maybe once then stored in new condition for 20 years!"

"PC ENGINE! JAPAN IMPORT! COMPLETE!" = "CD's ONLY"


The price per disc works out to more than the mags go for complete with the discs.


Best line: "Great for any collector!"
