Recca: Summer Carnival '92

[JC]

I think I put that up yesterday. Thanks for it. It's such a cool pirate, on my wishlist.

Jeez, considering there was what, less than 500 made....

WOW! 
Only 500 existing copies???
I am the lucky owner of a loose but perfect Recca: Summer Carnival 92!!!
This game rocks!
There is millions of sprites at the screen at the same time!!!
Unbelievably hard shooter!
I just love it!

It's pretty rare, but I would venture to say more than 500 copies were made. I'd put it between 5,000 and 15,000...but I don't know for sure.

Wow i watched videos of this game;
It's awesome !

Any idea how much a complete copy costs?

[manuel]

Could become expensive.
I found a cart only copy in an online shop that's usually cheap, but the game you want is 18400 Yen there. Cart only mind you.

about 35.000 - 65.000 yen for complete set in yahoo auction (depends on the conditions)

Good lord, I've seen it loose for like $199 on eBay. Too bad too, it's a damn good game. Really fast and amazingly intense shooter.

Jeez, considering there was what, less than 500 made....

Recca isn't a game in true limited edtition. 500 made? 

for a game with 500 made the value is over 160.000 Y and Recca is sold usually for 30/40.000 Y (50/60.000 when condition are mint).

I think the Recca circulation is 15.000+ made

Does anyone have a clear cartridge shot? I just tied this game out on my PSP, and man it's awesome! I want to get an NES repo of it. Any chances I could get a cover scan?

Famitsu didn't seem to like that game so much...
Only gave it a 4/4/6/5.

Famitsu isn't real a good source for shoot em up ratings 

[manuel]

To be true Famitsu isn't a good source for ANY type of game...
I always buy Famitsu just for the mass of screenshots and the cool design.

famitsu gave a high score to dirge of cerebus. they're just a bunch of sellouts.
