Hey folks,
About 10 years ago I purchased a huge job lot of PAL games, and this little fella was for some reason included. I presume accidentally.
Here's an album with photos (http://imgur.com/a/zXXhF)
Until this day, I haven't been able to find *any* information outside of its name.
Does anyone know what it's like? How does it play? Is it worth anything?

Looks like another video game version of Go (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_(game))

That looks like Go. Are you asking about THIS VERSION of Go, or about how to play the game of Go itself?

Most Japan-exclusive PS1 games aren't well-documented in English, especially if they're text-heavy and/or in generally undesired genres like board games. Haven't played it myself, but I'm guessing Sekai Saikyou Ginsei Igo 3 plays like most other video game renditions of Go. I don't see a recent listing on eBay, but the odds of it being worth much are extremely slim.

Sekai Saikyou Ginsei Igo 3
Just another Go game really.

No kidding, eh? Sekai Saikyou Ginsei Igo 3 is correct, everything matches up. Seemingly zero extra information, so I'm going to assume it isn't worth much if anything.

That said, I'm wondering if its a better Go game than the Hikaru no Go game I've played (that one lacked a two-player ability and had a weird implementation of territory). It looks like its sealed, so I'd feel bad "de-virginizing" it, but even so I might take it off your hands.
