Collector interest

The North American edition of Irem's run-and-gun, this NTSC GunForce carries the 16-bit shooter's charm on a US cardboard box, harder to find unwarped than its Japanese source. Its desirability rests on the game's noted difficulty and Contra kinship rather than cult aura. Loose, the title stays accessible on the US market; interest shifts toward sealed graded and clean-box complete copies, with condition steering most of its value.
