Gimmick!, the classic platformer that originally came out in 1992, is making a comeback on the NES as part of a Collector's Edition release by Limited Run Games. This exclusive item includes a uniquely branded green cartridge, poster, CD soundtrack, enamel pin, and numbered foil slipcover inside a deluxe foil box.

Originally released in Japan for the Famicom before a worldwide NES version followed a year later, Gimmick! is now being re-released to celebrate the platform's enduring popularity. The Collector's Edition release starts pre-ordering on January 24th and ends on February 23rd.

How big do you think the market is for retro-game physical releases?

Worldwide? This wasn't released anywhere outside of Japan or Scandinavia.

Great music and graphics, OK gameplay.
