Collector interest
Chikyuu Kaihou Gun ZAS is a T&E Soft vertical shooter that became one of the Japanese Game Boy's grails: its tiny print run and near-total market absence push prices to extreme levels, thousands of euros even loose. The collecting appeal lies not in the game, decent but conventional, but in its extreme physical scarcity, which makes it a recognized speculative object.
