View Full Version : Why is the US longbox version of Virtua Fighter Remix (Saturn) so hard to find?

I don't even see any on ebay. The only ones I see are the jewel case version and the cardboard sleeve version.

You'd think it would be more available than the pack-in versions.

It's the rarest of the three. I've seen three or so (and bought one) in the last two months.

I guess I'll keep my eye out for it. I wasn't even sure it actually existed (not even an actual picture of it on google images).

Here are a couple photos of my copy. I think that they didn't manufacture many in this format, because everyone who bought a Saturn with the VF1 pack-in, got Remix for free if they sent in their receipt. So, since a lot of people already had it, they probably did a smaller production run for general sale.

The spaces in the link are what's breaking it - highlight the entire single line for each, from H to jpg

Yeah, sorry about that. You will have to copy & paste the entire line into your browser. I should have renamed them. *_*

Oh wow. I just found out through this thread this existed. I seriously want this bad now. If anybody finds one for 20 or under, let me know, because I truly want it now.

Also, did Virtua Fighter 1 ever get a longbox release?

Sort of. It got released with Daytona USA and Virtua Cop in a cardboard box.

Uh, no. That was VF2 in the cardboard triple pack.

Was VF1 ever sold separately in the US? The only one I see is the NOT FOR RESALE cd case version.

No, VF1 was only a pack-in game. Then they rushed out Remix as fast as they could. Basically, if you bought a Saturn, you already owned VF1.
