You are bidding on the English/Euro instruction manual booklet for "Kizuna Encounter : Super Tag Battle"!  This title is also known as "Fu'un Super Tag Battle" in Japanese form.

Most die-hard video game players are well versed on the uniqueness of this particular release.  Legend has it that only a handful of complete original English/PAL copies exist; 5 or 6 to be exact.  When the European version was released, it sold so poorly that SNK had the games sent back to Japan for reassignment in the asian region (If you're familiar with the Neo Geo format, you'll know that the only difference between an English game cartridge and a Japanese game cartridge is the artwork ~ the insert, the instruction manual and the game cart sticker; the hardware is identical).  Many NG games were "relabeled" if unsold copies sat on store shelves.  SNK would 'swap' regions of the game by exchanging the artwork and reselling the title in another part of the world.  Games, especially in the 1995 to 1997 era, were notorious for having double stickers due to relabeling/reassignment.  At this same time, the 32-bit consoles were just taking off and most gamers moved onto the more sophisticated disc-based systems, causing cartridge-based platforms to suffer, especially the Ferrari of consoles, the Neo Geo AES System.  This is one of those titles that was affected, along with all of the other rare gems for the system at the same timeframe (Metal Slug 1 & 2, Neo Turf Masters, Art of Fighting 3, Samurai Shodown 4, Breaker's, Stake's Winner, Quiz Chibi, Twinkle Star Sprites and the just-as-elusive Ultimate 11 : Super Sidekicks 4).  We were fortunate enough to acquire two of these manuals; this is our last one available.
