Not sure really. Just watched it for a couple of rounds with no takers.
(for others reading, it was listed at roughly $300)

It started at 88,888 yen though. I guess he dropped it several times.

I was under the impression that the same company who makes the Sapphire boots made those

In the fact that you can touch it and see it, yes. They are recently made reproductions. Not fan-made, but pirate made (Aaarrr, matey).

Yeah it looks more minty than a cargo of mentos. Very suspicious.

that game only exists in pirate form doesn't it..... no official release ever if i read right awhile back.

you would be correct

Lore states that there were a few "real betas" floating about some time ago, but nobody has seen them. Now that reproducing graphics (even to look old) is somewhat easy, most of what you'll find is a fake.

Strider77 · Post by **Strider77** » Mon Jun 23, 2008 1:08 pm

I'd imagine those beta version would not look this "complete"....? spine card ect. Who knows, but I think it's cool that these can be obtained now.

I've amassed a few VGM records in my time on Yahoo Japan as well. These ones have shmup stuff on them:

Others include a Dragon Quest one and a Beatmania one. Maybe there's one more I forget.

Though your space invaders record has a penis on it so I can't compete.

kind of interesting, but maybe not worthy... a pretty old school looking supergun, never seen one like this before.. although the case is similar to another KIC DX 6b one that i've seen often

Here's something I was outbid on a few days ago:

http://page16.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/u26198468

They usually sell for around £1000, but this unit sold for a lot more due to the inclusion of the TV tuner, which is actually rarer than the Navi console itself. If anyone reading this lives in Japan and thinks they might be able to get one of these for me, then please let me know. It's just the console and the LCD screen I'm after, not the TV tuner.

Here's what they look likie out of the box:

For a fan of the goofy/obscure like myself that's pretty awesome...no way I could afford it though, heh heh. Or figure out what to do with it even if I got it.
