Collector interest

The original 1991 Super Famicom version, Jerry Boy is a peculiar Sony action-puzzle where you steer a living blob of jelly. Predating the Western localizations, it is the source of a strange, charming title issued by Sony Music at the dawn of the 16-bit era. The SFC cardboard box and spine card, when present, appeal to fans of Japanese oddities and Sony's publishing history. A fairly affordable source compared with the big niches, its interest rests on originality and the original edition.
