The Neo store doesn't really price things cheaply. Shawn provides a safe store, and is known to be very reliable. He probably scored that Bang BEad for $800 or so... Thats what they were running for, for a while. And is trying to sell it off.

Was there a jap release of bang bead ? Wouldn't it be cheaper to get ?

I wish that somebody comes across a whole warehouse full of mvs kits and uncover a lot of bang bead carts. I could buy it and still be able to eat...

Its a Euro only release, that is why it is so rare to find... very small production,

Has anyone played Bang Bead? I know it was a Euro only release and there wasn't very many of them made. But is the game any good?

I've got a copy for MVS. It is not terrible. It is the sequel to Flipshot. There is a little more skill this time, as you have to knock down all the targets, and then get the ball past the player. Also, you can not just use your supershot whenever you want, you have a meter. The game has pretty decent graphics and sounds. The characters are weird... especially the Cowboy. Nothing too special here, but it is fun for a little while, like Flipshot. I would recommend Flipshot over this, since it is a lot cheaper and easier to find... And, of course Windjammers kicks both games booty in this category.

Do you know why it's an euro only release ? Was Europa the only place the game had a chance of selling well ?

Well, that is all up to Visco. I think they just targeted a smaller audience and had a more limited run on it... it probably all boiled down to economics.
