first one's okay, I guess, but I never bid on auctions with reserves.

second one is good.

I just hope they can make money like that; regardless of what you think prices should be, people won't sell if they can't make money at it.

I noticed that the seller has the Super Dodgeball MVS cart that you and I both liked.

Funny when i was looking for a,Strikers 1945+ kit back in 06 they were no where to be found  ](*,)

In the end i just settle for a loose cart of it.

Super Dodgeball is an amazing game.

I logged countless hours on the NES version when I was younger. My dad used to leave me at my Uncle's place overnight when my dad worked graveyard...

And my uncle would let me stay in my Grandma's place nextdoor, which was vacant....

So of course I wouldn't sleep but would play NES all night!

I found out a few years ago that the Famicom version is actually 4 player, if I'm not mistaken... but unfortunately I've never played it with my friends.

Anyway, I always got a kick out of the China stage when I was a kid... I always wondered whose picture that was on the wall above the playfield.

I've always been into different countries and cultures so like with the original Street Fighter I really liked how in Super Dodgeball you travelled the world and got a glimpse of different people and different places in the world.

It could either be Hu Yaobang (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hu_Yaobang) or Zhao Ziyang (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zhao_Ziyang), I think.  :-k

It's Mao Tse Tung.

If you look at the background next to Mao's photo, you'll see that it is actually the famous tiananmen square photo. Notice the Chinese text to the left and right of Mao's photo. Also, notice the little gateways that are seen just above the playfield.

Here is a random photo I found online of the real photo (http://blogs.moundsparkacademy.org/mdowns/archives/mike-mao.jpg)

Here is a  video walkthrough  (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=400890565358238096)where you can see the China stage

China shows up at 5:07
