But watch out for those end of level bosses!
Originating in the arcades, Space Harrier is a third-person rail shooter with pseudo-3D graphics, set in the same world as Fantasy Zone.
The lone titular hero fights aliens with a fireball-launching cannon, which can also be used to transform the hero into a flying rocket.
The protagonist is constantly in motion, but the speed of his movement can be regulated by the player.
About Sega 32X
The Sega 32X (1994) was an add-on designed to extend the aging Genesis hardware's life ahead of the Saturn's launch, but it confused the market by competing with Sega's own next-generation console for developer support. Its short, roughly one-year commercial life resulted in a small game library, making complete 32X titles a compact but genuinely scarce niche for Genesis-era collectors.
Gamevaro tracks Space Harrier for Sega 32X 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 Space Harrier 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 32X release dates back to 1985.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Space Harrier, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Sega 32X titles.
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.
