Dreamcast - Moho

[Midaha]

Firstly, apologies if I am posting this in the wrong place. I'm fairly new to the forum...so be kind!

I'm aiming to try and complete a PAL Dreamcast collection - I've currenty got around 50 to go. I always assumed titles such as REZ and Evolution 2 were among the rarer/more difficult games to get - especially in the wild. Anyway, whilst searching on ebay I noticed that Moho seems to be pretty scarce and sellers seem to be trying to sell for a fair amount.

Does anyone have know the deal with this game? I actually, don't remember seeing it in stores in the UK although it was obviously released in Europe.

Any info will be greatly appreciated.

The DC version is exclusive to Europe and pretty uncommon. The Playstation version was released in the US as Ball Breakers.

Wasn't Evil Twin also a DC PAL exclusive? How hard is that one to find?

I have a copy of Evil Twin....didn't have much trouble finding it a couple years ago for $20 or $30. And yeah, it's PAL exclusive...but came out on the DC and the PS2.

Thanks for the responses guys.

I didn't realise Moho was exclusive to PAL regions. I reckon it must have had a fairly limited distribution in the UK.

Looking at the games I still need to get for a complete PAL collection - I think I will struggle mostly with Taxi 2 le jeu as I believe it was a only released in France.

For me, it's incredibly easy to find. There's a copy of it and Headhunter for the DC sitting in a shop that I've tried to shop at. Tried, but not successfully purchased. The guys running the shop didn't price them, when someone like me asks how much they are they go to the back of the room and look it up on eBay. But since the games didn't come out in the US, they can't find them and then refuse to sell them. Meanwhile, 98PaceCar has gone in and bought the proverbial dungload of Japanese DC imports there for next to nothing, but for me they won't sell the games until they can get the most overinflated price off eBay and charge me the most they possibly can. Bastards.

This happened to me today. There's a new game store near where I live and there was an unpriced multicart for the NES, he wouldn't price it because he couldn't find an example of the exact multicart online. I mentioned that multicarts are usually worth around $20-$50 at the most, he said he wouldn't know which end to price it at so he couldn't price it for me.

This store isn't that bad and they have a huge selection, but some things there annoy me. I tried to buy a couple GBA games but apparently they were priced wrong so I was told the prices were actually at least double what the stickers said. I still picked up a couple SNES games for $2-$3 each which was great, but you can never be sure of anything by the price stickers alone. Some are too high, some too low, others not priced at all. You won't know until you try to buy them.
