Does it matter? Not likely to generate interest with a ridiculously high asking price for a machine that has issues and needs work. If it was an easy fix the seller would have done it already. It’s either:
- Seller bought something labelled as rare thinking he’d flip it and cash in
- Seller hopes someone else will get dazzled by the RARE label

It is "rare" in that I have never heard of this game.
... but I don't know if it's "that" valuable ...because no-one has ever heard of this game...

Then again, this guy is looking for one

Je me souviens d'avoir vu ca a l'arcade, c'était plus une curiosité ! Dans ce genre une Holosseum serait plus intéressant.
Dans ces années la, il y avait certain type de jeux bizzares, des jeux sortis de l'esprit des beaurocrate que d'un designer de jeux video !
The video game i want to play is always the one i don't have :FP:

The arcade itself is playable, fun & addictive.
The VR headset view in perfect condition and fully operational, the power scope attached to the headset rotates 360' and can move up/down in different angles.
The spectator screen needs calibration as its flickering, the screen does shift into stereoscopic (up/down view) during gameplay and then to single screen during the start menu and the main ui, however it doesn't impact player's view inside the VR headset

"Rare" and maybe "fun" dont command this price.
Game need a great reputation, rarity, well know and need a great demand to ask for higher price.

A tons of games are before this game in the head of video collectors and these collectors are rare in province of Québec.

I'm my opinion 800-1200$ are more realistic to sell this game.

Good luck !
