Game description: Sequel to the game "Gekibo", which was on the Turbografx 16 console. There is a PAL version of the game named Polaroid Pete, but the publishing company for the PAL regions went bankrupt literally days before it scheduled to hit stores. It is rumored that the game saw limited distribution or was given away, making a PAL copy of this game incredibly rare, should it actually exist.
