Also open for reasonable offers.
Very limited quantity!!!
Some additional tech info: the game is on real 156 mapper on CPLD hardware.

So, it's not a regular repro, where you just replacing a memory chip and boom - new game! :) METAL FORCE is not that game where you can do such trick. It requires much more work with hardware and only possible on absolutely new components, including PCB
And again: if someone wants the cart and thinks the price is too high, feel free to make offers.
It's awesome! I want one! :bub:
If only I had any money at the moment... :p
This looks pretty great, considering the fact how rarely I see it on Ebay and alike.
Are you aware that this is a "reissue" cart though??
It's a reproduction. Just leave it at that.
I added "[REPRODUCTION]" to the thread title, since, as fancy as this is, it is not a legitimate release. The term "reissue" can very much imply that this is an officially-sanctioned release, which it is not in any way.
There are MMC3 hacks of this game floating around. Going to sell mine, soon.
I believe the MMC3 hack dump is not public.
The MMC3 port is private, yeah.
What mapper did the NES run use?

I'd assume that's the MMC3 port, but I have no idea as I never had my hands on that cart.
Perhaps someone who has it can open it and check it? :D
If there is any common mapper version of this game like MMC3 then it's a complete shame it has never been shared publicly, this would make the production easier and lower the costs significantly... If anyone can obtain the MMC3 cart then I'm sure it can be dumped easily by anyone familiar with this stuff, I can also do this easily if anyone can share and send the cart to me
Excuse me guys, but are you sure you're in the right thread?
Aww man. :( I'd be interested if the whole manual weren't in Korean. ???
The board looks very professional, by the way. ;)
bump!

Here is the pic of how desired "reproduction" mark looks like. It's added to game box art and to instruction manual:

that was the mmc3 hack. afaik the patch hasn't been shared and i haven't heard of any owners dumping their repro carts. it's also been a while since i've seen one for sale.
OP's repro looks like it's very well done. if you're interested in a cart, this is probably the way to go. having a proper clone of the mapper is a big plus. i haven't played the mmc3 version but i assume there are minor issues with that conversion, based on my own work writing a mapper hack for this game.
