About this game

A 3-player top-down arcade game where one player controls one of three unidentified ghost-busters.

The game is based off of The Real Ghostbusters cartoon, rather than strictly off the movie franchise.

The player can choose between a red, yellow or blue-jumpsuited character though all have the same abilities.

These powers include an energy gun that transforms a hostile monster into a harmless, basic ghost, which are then captured using the proton beam.

Other abilities are an invincibility field and the ability to summon Slimer to absorb attacks instead of the player.

In Japan the game is known as Meikyuu Hunter G, but bears little resemblance to the western version as it did not use the Ghostbusters license.

About Commodore 64

Released in 1982, the Commodore 64 is the best-selling home computer model of all time, with an enormous software library spanning games, productivity tools, and everything in between. C64 game collecting centers on cassette tapes and floppy disks in their original packaging — physical media that's inherently fragile, so complete, working copies from the era are increasingly prized by retro computing collectors.

Gamevaro tracks The Real Ghostbusters for Commodore 64 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Adding The Real Ghostbusters to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This C64 release dates back to 1987.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
