Collector interest

European PAL version of Sunsoft's adaptation of the Death of Superman arc. Released in late 1995, at the very end of the SNES life in Europe, it benefits from the smaller PAL base and the short runs of that period to be markedly scarcer than its US counterpart, despite a game judged unremarkable. It appeals to Superman collectors and PAL late-release hunters; the intact European cardboard box and multilingual manual carry value toward the complete copy.
