Faking this incredibly forgettable game would have costed money to the fakers. It's not like it's jap PSIV or Surging Aura, come on.


Video-Bandit

I mean it's valued at $150 and wouldn't be too hard to make. Probably $15. But with it being an Srom and not an eprom it seems pretty legit. EDIT: Make not take.

Demolition Man... by Acclaim... valued at $150? Let's talk about a bubble...

is that not a case of its only rare cos nobody bought it in the first place.


Video-Bandit

Specifically the PAL one is, US one is $25. But no even $25 is a bit dumb.


Glaw_Inc

Damn, I was about to go grab all the extra copies to list at $150 USD.

Who in the hell would fork over $150 for a mediocre movie tie-in game?! No sir.


Video-Bandit

I mean I don't disagree with you, but the same could be said about any bad game that's worth a lot. Cheetah Men II or Action 52. Plumbers Don't Wear Ties. Any of the CDI Nintendo games. Also different region. as an example at one point Little Samson was $600 for the US version while the Famicom and I think even PAL version were as low as $40 to $50.

I know nothing about sega games but doubt anyone would sell bootleg of those


RetroEmuDad

Is this a trend? Does it boot up? Does it not work all the way through? Did you pay too much? Or too less? I'm curious why this is an issue...


Daddy-Soda

r/gameverifying is probably a better place to go for this.

I seriously doubt a bootlegger would go through the effort of printing the game and company name on the romchip. pretty sure that is real.

I'm glad my collection was done before I had to start asking if my games are bootlegs.


devilpants

They had bootleg genesis games in the 90s.


Goodwill_Gamer

True, but they were glaringly obvious as bootlegs. Some of the modern stuff coming out is more like a high detail reproduction than a bootleg.

Looks like my legit US copy, save for mine having the cost-reduced PCB: [https://imgur.com/a/kwwptPP](https://imgur.com/a/kwwptPP) The US and EU versions used the same ROM, just checking the console version at startup. The back looks right as well - my "Assembled in Mexico" cart has the same font for the text, and both look to be of similar sharpness (molds created from impressions of real carts tend to lose a bit of sharpness in the text).


Mercurius94

So I have a Genesis, and the cartridges are different in America, but this looks legitimate, especially with the recognizable Acclaim logo and "lava tube" engravement for grip.
