This Looks Like a Really Good Game. But The Reason I Like To Collect Rare & Beta Games Is , What If Someone Wanted To By a Copy Of The Game?. Some Games Are Impossible To Find. Oh Well… Perhaps Someday The Lost & Unseen Games Might Be Discovered. I Hope Someday We Can Convince People To Sell Cartridges Of These Games.

You’ll have to take my word on it since I don’t have proof, but this game was actually completed. On it’s US release date, I actually saw a copy in my local Best Buy. I immediately recognised it because it was one of two games I was looking forward to for the virtual boy. I actually held it in my hands and read the back of the box!
I didn’t buy it because I wanted Zero Racers more and it was supposed to be released in only a few more days. I only had enough money for one game. Sadly a few days later I heard that Zero racers was canceled. I made it back to Best Buy to pick up Dragon Hopper maybe about a week after I first saw it, but not only was the game gone, but their whole VB display was too!
It’s how I learned they were dropping the system.
So the question is, what happened to those games? Were they recalled? Sent to a different store?
They had to have been on sale for at least one day, so there could be a couple copies in circulation out there.
Probably the closest I’ve ever come to owning a really rare game. I wonder how much it’d be worth now…

Could it have been a promotional-box, without the actual game? Sometimes they do stuff like this in italian Gamestops
