    So I came across a copy of Einhänder, that in itself is pretty exciting, however something quickly got my attention and realized this copy of the game is different in in some way not normal. its NTSC/J, not American, not European, I havent opened the box, it's still sealed until I can find more info about this.



    Front of box, check out that spine cover

    I on the box there is a message in Japanese reading "Promotional" with some other stuff I cannot read, and in yellow it reads:

    "Do not use unauthorized software or peripherals.
    They may not play properly on, or cause damage
    to your "Playstation" console"


    What is this???? The box is different from any version I have seen and it is still sealed in official "Playstation" wrap.

    In other news, some guy at shmups.com claims to have a European copy. Which is interesting, because it was never released :O

    From what I can see (English text, Not for Sale), it looks like a HK promo. Interesting, never knew there was one.

    it is the Asian version of the game in form of a retailer shop version (for running on store displays for example). only difference to the regular Asian version is the orange not for sale mark on the back cover.

    since it is sealed it is a nice find indeed. :nod:

    it looks like the "not for sale" mark is only a sticker. yes?
