Has that mad controller thing though. Things like that can't be easy to come across these days. Still expensive though, more expensive than elsewhere if I recall.

Reason why its so expensive is because Steel Battalion is a Mech Game and you get the whole mech control station with it. It's quite large and you would need a table to put the controls on it.

Always wanted that game

My mother offered to buy it when she was in New York but by the time she found it, she couldn't lift it

I advise everyone read that review. Excelent piece of writing. Tekki is what it was released in Japan as BTW.

I remember getting them in work, they sold really quickly too. Very rare.

Apparently, if you died in the game that was it, back to the start. There was even an emergency escape button on the controller. Brilliant idea.
