Sam's Journey: Famicom Edition Complete!
News from our distribution partner poly.play: The Sam's Journey Famicom Edition is now complete!
It took us some time to find a matching combination of PCBs and cartridge shells as there had never been a standard for those on the Famicom.
The game manuals, the cartridge blisters and the additional goodies are already in stock. The final piece of the puzzle were the game boxes which finally arrived last week.
If all goes well, the pre-orders are expected to ship next week.
Do you have a Famicom as well and wish to play Sam's Journey without an adaptor? Get Your Famicom Edition At Poly.Play!
