I always wanted to know. Is there a definite list of snk production runs
for the home cardriges?
You know, for instance how many last blade 2 jap carts have been made, etc etc.

You mean they used old stock carts to make new ones? Yeah ok. But how many
Last Blade 2 and/or others are in the wild?

From what I read there is supposed to be AT LEAST 3000 copies. But that was something I read back in 2005. I hope there are more copies than that.

KOF2000 US- 100 carts
Last Hope AES- 60 carts
Metal Slug 1 US- low to mid hundreds(?)
Kizuna Encounter Euro- 6 to 12 carts(?). 4 or 5 carts are confirmed to exist.
Other US AES games (released after numbers of US carts went way down): 200/300/500 to 2000+(?)

As far as I know there is no definite list of SNK production runs, unless it is hidden in a vault at SNK headquarters in Japan.

that would be kind of unsystematic not to know their own production quantities.

yeah well my numbers are probably more accurate than some of the others out there. nobody knows for sure anyway (on a lot of the games, maybe not all of them).
if you've got some better numbers, then let's hear them.

I haven't - hence why I won't pull random numbers out of my ass.

Do you honestly think 6 or 12 kizunas were made? :lolz:

I recall Tarma saying something about a dealer that had a stock of Euro Kizuna Encounter and Ultimate 11 carts that he couldn't move, even at a very cheap price. I think he said they were either reused or destroyed:(
