Expensive EU/JP Games<br />
RARE GAMES ARE ONE THING. The dedicated collector<br />
will eventually come across even the rarest title at<br />
a good price. The expensive titles, however, are the sole<br />
domain of those with a thick wallet. Following are a<br />
sample of the most pricey EU and JP releases, but, of<br />
course, there are many more than the ones we’ve listed<br />
here. Surgeons, lawyers and investment bankers should<br />
also take a look at, to list a few, Kula World (E),<br />
Castlevania Limited Edition (E), Ramna Battle Renaissance<br />
(J), Kaitou Apricot (J), Captain Commando (J),<br />
Harmful Park (J), Panzer Bandits (J), Taoplan Shooting<br />
Battle (J), and the numerous Japanese “limited edition”<br />
boxsets.<br />
Mortal Kombat II<br />
Japan | SLPS-00444 | 1996<br />
MORTAL KOMBAT II IS ARGUABLY the best fighter in<br />
the Mortal Kombat series. It is rather surprising that Acclaim<br />
released this game in Japan and not in the US. This<br />
could be attributed to the fact that Tekken and Battle Arena<br />
Toshinden were already on the market and showing off the<br />
extraordinary 3D capabilities of the PlayStation. For a 2D<br />
game on a 3D game system, Mortal Kombat II holds up<br />
fairly well. Graphics are crisp and the control is arcade-like.<br />
The one drawback to this Playstation port is that when finishing<br />
moves are performed, the game pauses in order to<br />
load in the data due to the PlayStation’s limited RAM. Mortal<br />
Kombat II was released in very limited quantities, so it is<br />
quite a collector’s item. This game often sells for over $100.<br />
Capcom Generations<br />
Europe | SLES-01881 | 1999<br />
EVER WONDERED WHAT CAPCOM did before such<br />
PlayStation hits as Dino Crisis and Street Fighter? Well here<br />
is your chance to own 4 CD’s packed with 13 of Capcom’s<br />
best classic games such as Ghouls n’ Ghosts, 1942, Commando<br />
and Gun Smoke. Enjoy arcade perfect conversions,<br />
browse galleries filled with original artwork and view special<br />
secrets and tips. This is the complete collection of classic<br />
Capcom games in a European exclusive pack. This title<br />
was slated for a US release but never came to fruition. In<br />
Japan, Capcom sold each CD separately. The English-language<br />
Euro version is in high demand; it sells for $30-$50.
