Collector interest

Late 1992 European PAL release from Capcom, arriving as attention had already shifted to the Super Nintendo. That late-release PAL status is exactly what explains the soaring price: a tiny run for a declining NES market, lasting demand from European completists, and the extreme scarcity of complete or sealed copies. The game itself matters less than its standing among the hardest PAL NES titles to secure.
