There aren't a ton of super-rare Neo Geo games thanks to NeoGeoFreak, a company that swooped in and snatched up a lot of the IPs and assets from SNK America when it stopped manufacturing Neo Geo games. That means a lot of unreleased (and unfinished) games have been set loose. But there are still toughies to find out there.
Back story: It was never sold in stores, and only about five of these were made in English (certainly fewer than 15), perhaps for promotional reasons. It's also been speculated that Neo Geo was prepping to do a test run. For whatever reason, it didn't go to market.
Most it's publicly sold for: According to rumors, about $13,500, but it's unclear when the sale went down. In 2010, a new copy sold for $1,247.66.
Even if it is just a blog post, and not "real" journalism, in the age of Google; it's not so onerous to do factchecking that one has to rely on the Ambiguously Gay Duo as your sole source of background info.
