I discovered that on SNES emulator and wish I had owned it on my actual SNES as a kid
I found out it was good right after selling it when I wheeled and dealed in retro games at a fleamarket for a bit. AVGN's maybe former pal Mike Matei listed it at the top of his underrated SNES games, which was a resell bummer cause the value skyrocketed but also an I wouldn't have fucking sold it anyway bummer once I tried out the rom. The guy who bought it loved it as a kid and I should have played it but I'd bought it the same day.
Also cause retro game sales are super sleazy prospector filled stuff, I will say that I ran a very very clean shop and this was over 10 years ago before things got zany, things getting zany is why I got out. I scoured yard sales, old attics, closing rental shops and under all rocks and in most shrubs for the games I sold, I based my price off of the average completed sales figure on ebay, which seemed reasonable since you walked away with it right then, could test the games we had on consoles we had right there, no shipping and we let these nerds hang out and practice spedruns or do melee tournaments for free in our booth, a crowd brings a crowd but gamers suck and we want old ladies who remember their old atari to feel welcome too. Anyway, I didn't consider my own labor or time in getting these things and the goal was to get them out of attics or save em from the dump and into the hands of the nerds who cherish them, I had the occasional windfall but it was mostly a loss financially and yknow, I didn't pay myself for my labor. So I'm CLEAN
