Original Post

Hello,
I’m looking to buy an “Insmouse No Yakata” game pak, without its box or the manual, I need it loose. I can’t seem to find one ANYWHERE. ‘ Been shopping ’round for nearly a year now and I’ve only always found this game, complete in box. Cheers!

I was actually just about to post a topic about this 😛 on the same boat you are!

Keep checking guys! I saw one on ebay last month, I think it sold for about 54 USD (just the game). I bought a brand new, sealed in box game for about $100 USD. It also seems like the sealed ones go up for sale more often too. So it’ not that much more expensive to just get the whole thing, it may be worth it to do that. In my opinion it has the coolest box out of the whole collection, so there’s that too!

Do you know that japan virtual boy games never came sealed ?
It still can be a new one but the seal have been done later ( resealing is normall in japan ) almost all stores do that

The reason it’s so difficult to find a loose copy is that Japanese gamers are notorious for taking care of their games. Unlike their US counterparts, they’ll rarely toss the box and manual, and even well-used games will look like new. So you’re much more likely to find a complete set, rather than a loose cart.

Yes I’m aware. I was referring to the plastic around the cartridge inside the box
