Nah, he said that since its so rare he wouldn't do it out of respect for people who actually own the import versions... :(

So, if anyone knows where I can get a repro cart that will run on an NTSC NES, let me know!

Do you have a NES/Famiclone? My PAL Over Horizon works on My Generation Nex and I think it also worked on the Family Boy without any issues.

I do actually! I have a GN Twin and an FC Mobile II. Unfortunately the only copy of Mr. Gimmick that I can find online is going for $1000...

The game was all set for a US release, but was scrapped at the last minute. I'm basically just looking for a repro copy of the American version, although I guess it would be hard to differentiate from the PAL copy now that I think about it.

I learn about so much unique stuff on Racketboy that I just never hear about anywhere else. Thanks to the magic powers of the internet (*cough* coolrom.com *cough*), I just gave this game a try. It is incredibly difficult! It's the fact that you have to charge your weapon before you can use it, then the weapon bounces instead of following a straight path, and you have to wait for it to start bouncing before you can use it again. Plus, all those spikes and slippery floors are a real pain. I could see how with a little practice it could really grow on me though.

I've never even seen one for sale. The only version I've seen is a PAL copy for $1000!
