I have a copy! My friend sold it to me for 5 bucks he didn't know it was rare. His uncle found it in an old rental storage place. His uncle had no clue what it was he found that and several other games. With a sega genesis and a controller. The game works fine its in a box and has its manual. First time I'm telling anyone. I'm planning to keep it for a couple more years hopping prices increase.

@GodzillaFG If it's the real deal it's worth a lot - I'd be surprised though. There's lots of bootleg replicas floating around and you needed underground contacts generally to get a copy of this back in the day.

[ianwilson1978]

@SonicZXG That'll be a no! :)

@LucaBlightBadass it's probably a bootleg cart.

Tetris: $3,000 – $16,000

So you think the unlicensed Tetris game for the NES is hard to find? Just try to get your hands on the Japanese Megadrive Tetris. It was developed alongside Sega’s System-16 arcade version, but never reached shelves after legal wranglings gave Nintendo exclusive console rights. However, that little issue doesn’t stop some people from obtaining it. Apparently, there are about 10 copies known to be floating around.

@GodzillaFG Bullshit dont believe ya its too rare!

[crunkeith]

I bought the bootleg (jap) version of this game for $80. Not gonna find it for cheaper since I don't go to flee markets or know anyone stupid enough to sell it for cheap.

[EliteLugia]
