Don't know if this is common knowledge since the 7th Edition came out, but Huge Insect (Sachen) is listed in the Rumor Mill section. Anyway, a guy is selling a complete copy on Ebay.

Thanks for the heads up!

Our Nintendo guys have been a bit incommunicado of late but I'll be sure this gets to them.

Yeah, NES-God's had them for a while (nothing like nagging the Sachen prez for days to make you 30 of them ;)). Frank's had one for a while, and I've just been lazy. With Frank's Sachen entanglement, I'm sure he's already got this covered.

I wish there was a manual with it though.

Huh? Making them? Is there something to this story that I'm supposed to know that I (apparently) don't?

Huge Insect didn't exist in NES cart form a year ago ;) (Frank can confirm, edit, or deny this, but I'm fairly sure about it)

I thought Sachen was Out of business....so how does one get ahold of them to make carts!?

Sachen is in business...or atleast they were until a short while ago.

Port's right. I confirmed myself with Sachen that Huge Insect was never released. However, after enough persistence by myself and nes.god, they apparently finished the game and made about 30 carts for him.

So...that's a brand new NES game. And if Sachen is out of business, which they very well may be (website's gone, they just pulled their patents), you'd better snatch one now if you need it.

As for the game itself, it's like Galaga, but on Earth, with real bugs.
