SOTD Famicom Disk System: Akumajou

Konami's Akumajou game series is arguably one of the company's most important franchises right behind Metal Gear Solid. Akumajou has found loyal audiences on all major consoles and handhelds throughout the decades and a PSP version is scheduled to ship this fall.

Here's the Akumajou game that started it all: A new, never-opened copy of Akumajou for the Famicom Disk System that was originally released in September 1986. The back of the case is still sealed with the Disk Card sticker and the printed UPC label is clean and still shiny. We're reluctant to grade the game as absolute mint condition but it's pretty close with only slight scuffing on the plastic packaging from decades of storage. «photos»
