I dont know why bunnyboy is not numbering the games he's selling... that's a very bad point for collectors, anyway I order my copy too.

I don't think he needs to number ones like this. No stuff like the NWC makes sense, but not this. # should only be for the ungodly cool stuff. Don't get me wrong, Airball is freaking awesome but can't compare to the mystery or allure that the NWC brought to the table.

It will be available again. Don't worry. He makes them in bursts, then sells what quantity he has. Then they're unavailable until he orders more parts. Then sells again. You'll get one eventually.

1. First complete full-production NES game to be released since Sunday Funday (honorable mention to Sudoku for coming in a tin, but that was a homebrew, this is a Tengen game)

2. Port of an enormously successful PC game that wasn't made for any other home gaming console

3. Excellent production values, both programwise and the package itself, which includes a full-color box, book, label and brand-new clear cart.

4. Only costs you $35 + shipping, round-about what a new NES game cost in 199x.

5. A purchase helps fund the revival of NES production, every sale of an Airball is like a dollar in the bank for future NES game programmers that would like to make similar releases.

6. The game itself has multiple difficulty levels, and will appeal to action gamers as well as puzzler/RPG gamers in the same way Solstice did. An extra dimension is your "air supply" which depletes as you move about the levels, adding an extra level of challenge/complexity to the gameplay.

7. Although no mention of the production window has been made thusfar, it's reasonable to assume that this production run will not be open-ended forever and at one point these carts will become collectibles in the same way all other NES games have. And when it does, it will be the first of its kind and noteworthy to the marketplace of the future. Google "Garage Cart NES" for more on this market dynamic.
