Sega Genesis prices, all games & how to spot a fake

A war strategy game from Sega, Japan only, with a very cheap cart.

Super Daisenryaku is a war strategy game in the Daisenryaku series, released by Sega on the Mega Drive in Japan on 29 April 1989. The series began in 1985 on the NEC PC-98 and moved to many platforms.

Before you buy

It came out only in Japan, and among Japan-only carts it is among the cheaper ones. A Japanese cartridge is a different shape and fits a Western console only with an adapter or after removing two plastic tabs in its slot. The page lists a save battery that matters in some modes, so check that a save holds; a replaced battery is a normal repair, not a sign of a fake.
