Gradius SNES PAL version??

This claims to be a PAL version of Gradius 3 for the SNES- I've never seen it listed as being a PAL game.

Was it ever released as a PAL game- does anyone have it?



ok- it says Hot linking is not allowed, but if your interested then just google image 'Gradius PAL' and a picture of a supposed PAL Gradius 3 turns up.

I went to the vgmuseum site and checked the scan. That's definitely a picture of the JP SFC Gradius III cart. I checked some sites and they don't list a PAL version.

It's on the Wii PAL Virtual Console, but there is no original cartridge that's made for Europe.

yeah, kind of thought that myself- but i always wondered- obviously never seen one on ebay ever- despite looking many times and therefore i've got the japanese version instead.
