Collector interest

The Lion King, the European version of Virgin Interactive's platformer adapted from the Disney film, on Game Boy. Carried by the film's worldwide triumph, this polished title was widely distributed in PAL and stays accessible. Its collecting interest stays moderate and rests mainly on lasting attachment to The Lion King and comparison with the American edition of the same game.
