Maison Ikkoku it is then.  It seems obvious to me that it's some kind of digital comic.

Nope and it's not a digital comic (though it does have light dc elements to it).

New hint: It was released in both USA and Japan.

Hmmm... it's a pic of a man to the left, with a suitcase/trunk opened up and some clothes hanging out...  Looks military-ish cause of the sepia.

I want to guess Gunboat (?) but that wasn't released in Japan...

Military Madness?

I would agree with that.

Keep guessing.

New hint: That screenshot is specifically from a game over screen.

That clue gave it away, haha. I bet no one will ever guess what it is.

Fine! New hint then: The title contains three words.

I'm hoping someone will be willing enough to compile a list of all the possibilities :) . I love teasing you guys.

OK, so I know it was released in both regions, has three words in the title, and it's a game I've never played (there aren't many, but I'm absolutely sure I've never seen that graphic before). A quick jog through the PCEngine Catalog Project tells me it has to be one of the following games, in that case:

Champions Forever Boxing
Hit the Ice
King of Casino
Veigues Tactical Gladiator
World Class Baseball
World Court Tennis
World Sports Competition

(Can you tell I don't like sports games? :) )

Right off the bat I'll cross King of Casino and Veigues off the list on gut instinct alone. Which leaves the remaining sports games.

My guess is Champions Forever Boxing.

Well, it has to be one of the ones on my list, unless it doesn't really have three words in the title. Or isn't a HuCard.


EDIT: It could also be one of the "TV Sports" games. I just realized those were released in Japan too (never knew that).

Unless it really is Veigues.

Nope and nope. :)

Bullshit - Black Tiger is right, it is from King of Casino.  I just checked it out in M.E. and it is the Game Over screen where a dude is sitting on the curb with his back against a pole with his locker full of shit beside him.
