Popeye 2, arcade platformer with Popeye the sailor and spinach. Decent 8-bit animations and varied stages. Pleasant for nostalgic Popeye fans.

Collector interest

The Japanese release of Popeye 2 carries the most structural scarcity of the three editions, since the title barely circulated in Japan where the sailor's licence mattered less than home-grown mascots. Complete copies are thin on the ground, with the cardboard box and Japanese-format manual that clearly set this edition apart. The pull is that of the completist chasing full JP variants rather than steady demand, the game itself holding no special aura.
