SWIV
Sega Genesis · 1991
About this game
SWIV on the Game Boy Color is an adaptation of the 1992 SNES version Super SWIV (aka Firepower 2000 in North America).
It's a vertical scrolling shooter where the player may choose to pilot a chopper or to drive an attack Jeep.

The chopper is not blocked by obstacle, but can only fire straight forward.
Unlike the SNES/Genesis version, Jeep and Chopper have same specs: same speed, same armor, same agility.
Levels are also 'inspired' by the 1992 version but modified (less long, less enemies).
The 2 players mode (one controlling the chopper, the other in the jeep) was also removed.
About Sega Genesis
Known as the Mega Drive outside North America, the Sega Genesis (1988/1989) was Sega's most successful console and Sonic the Hedgehog's original home, fueling the "console wars" era against Nintendo's SNES. Genesis cartridge collecting is well-established: common sports and platformer titles are affordable, while sports-license and later-era games with smaller print runs can carry a meaningful premium.
Gamevaro tracks SWIV for Sega Genesis 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 SWIV 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 GEN release dates back to 1991.

Rarity & condition
No market sales have been tracked yet for SWIV — this could mean it rarely changes hands, or simply that Gamevaro hasn't recorded a sale for it yet. Be the first to add it to your collection.
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.

What's the difference between loose, CIB and sealed for SWIV?
