So I thought I was pretty well versed in all the Konami 4 Player titles, having grown up playing them all pretty extensively. Everyone remember the TMNT games, and The Simpsons, we all see those everwhere, and X-Men which is slightly less common, but still very well known. GI Joe and Bucky O'Hare are the least common, and only show up every once in a blue moon, but the one game that I've never seen ever anywhere, either on location, eBay, or anywhere else is Asterix. Before I played it on MAME, I never even knew it existed.
I suspect that given the fact that the Character is mainly popular in Europe, and not here, that it may have been a Euro-only game, but I have nothing to base that on. Has anyone ever seen an Asterix cabinet or PCB for sale? The game itself is nothing special, just a generic Beat Em Up in the vein of TMNT or The Simpsons, but it's still something I'd like to track down and add to the collection one day.
