As a small developer teamed up with Soft Vision, its production was low and estimates put it at around several thousand in Japan and probably less so in South Korea. With growing interest in obscure Japan-only games, Eliminate Down’s value went up thanks to exposure to its gameplay and scarcity. The prices inflated astronomically as interest grew over time.

The only difference between both regions for our release is the cartridge shell, the board will detect which console it is on and run at either 60Hz or 50Hz as needed. Additionally, if the cart does not run initially, a quick double-reset on the console will switch the cartridge into the correct mode.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQ) Were there any other changes made to the game?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA) This is the original Japanese game that has been fully translated into English.
