Bang Bead Information I have issues about.

Ok where to start....This for example.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1156898963

Why is this game so rare? Not seen much I do admit but, $1000.00? Now before you go into 'Oh not another price rant' It's not about that. You see I also did some checking to the valitdy of this game and it seems 'VISCO' has said that this game was never made by them.

Now why would I say this? well for one you can see all the games created by 'VISCO' on thier site at www.visco.co.jp and look to see if you can find it.

Also in regards to the rarity of this title. Why didn't Adol list the NGH number of the game or a Serial Number? Being so Rare I'm sure that would be something to talk about. So far I haven't seen any proof this game was made and or support by VISCO other than a company Logo which could be easily 'slapped' on there by anyone who knows how to program.

Also someone contacted VISCO in hopes maybe this game was a Beta release which was also would explain more to me the high dollar value of the game. He told me it took some time to find someone who spoke English but, After talking to the person at thier office he was flatly told that VISCO had not made this game. He was also told that all games that were ever MADE by VISCO were produced only in Japan.

So you tell me. What the hell is up with this game seeing as Adol who owns has very little info to give about it?

My Bang Bead is in the mail from Europe. I should get it in 2 weeks. When I do, I will post the serial number and anything else that you need. I don't care if it's not made by Visco. As long as I have the game, I am happy. <IMG SRC="smilies/glee.gif" border="0">

It's not. Its just new. It wasnt for sale to US distributers, so it takes awhile to trickle down to resellers we usually deal with.

This was a full MVS release. It started out high priced. Just like Ganryu or Strikers.
Those both sold for $600-800 in the 1st few months of their release, & they were hard to get.
Look at em now. Time will drop the $$$ & "rareness" of this title.

When I do, I will post the serial number and anything else that you need.

That would be cool.
if you could post any gameplay pics, that would be great too.
I know several people that would like to see em. Including myself.

If it was a full MVS release. Who made the game then? VISCO isn't taking credit for it. So who?

I'll do a review and post pics when I recieve the game. I'll also post the marquee and flyers at my site. By the way, how do you find HGN number? Thanks.

The NGH numbers should be printed on the Chip-Set. I'm curious as to those myself. I want proof this game isn't some ole reprogrammed POS that someone in their Garage Whipped out.

I just noticed something on Adol Bang Bead. What the hell is that red color where the contacts are?

VISCO isn't taking credit for it. So who?

Well, Visco also doesnt take credit for a lot of their games.
Ask em about Flipshot, & they'll think your crazy.

It's funny, only SNK of Japan ever seems to have a clue. I would contact them.

I remember, back in the day, I asked SNK-USA
about Money Puzzle Exchanger, and they said I was wrong.

That MPE wasn't a neogeo game. LOL, goes to show ya,
these companies often don't know shit.

It's like the left arm has no idea what the right arm is doing.
You just gotta work your way up to the brain to get a straight answer.

Well if that's the case, I have no qalms about it. I do realize that some companies have no idea where their games go. Hence the Prez of Sqauresoft telling Next Gen magazine that Final Fantasy IV never made it to the U.S. Super Nintendo.*duh* But If this is the case, I'll have no issues. I just want to make sure a game this rare is a REAL one instead of someone's garage work... <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0">
