A Japan-only Mega Drive cart from Kodansha that sits about at the middle of Japanese prices.
Kishi Densetsu came out only in Japan, on 30 July 1993, published by Kodansha and developed by Geo Factory with Warlock.
Before you buy
Among Japan-only carts the loose price is about at the middle. A Japanese cartridge has a different shape and will not fit a Western console without an adapter or removing two plastic tabs in its slot. It saves to a battery inside the cartridge, so check that a save holds; a replaced battery is a normal repair, not a sign of a fake.
