That box is pretty sought after…you would think it would either be a reprint, or the original box art that was quickly changed after beind deemed ‘too graphic.’ I’ve no idea though…seems like that box could be a turnoff to parents looking to buy a game for their kids.
Too bad he doesn’t take a picture of the side flaps, which have the serial number, and would show if this was the original or some uncommon re-release.

All my Konami US SNES boxes say “Made in Japan” on them. This says “Made in Mexico”. Clue?

Probably not. NAFTA kicked in soon after this game was released and it was likely cheaper to move production to Mexico at that point.

Notice that there is a second Sku over the original one.

i dont understand why it still has the other manual to it though… ude think it would have a matching manual to the box art and not to the other box art. HMM

I have this same exact one! Is this one worth more than the other one?
But yes, it does go for quite a bit more than the standard version.

Hi Andrew, yes it is. If you sell it, be sure to contact us here for proper exposure.
Or sell it to me :-p
