About this game
Aries was a peaceful and calm planet for millennia; however, it is now faced with its worst crisis.
The deadly army of Obellon fighters led by General Don Jingi, the evil merchant known to do anything for personal gain, is out to steal the “Starlight,” a powerful source of energy that could destroy the universe if misused.

You must properly guide the “Hunting Dog” fighter-plane along with Hawk and Esty (special undercover agents protecting the Galaxy) to destroy Obellon before they destroy the world.
You are the last resort of our planet.
About TurboGrafx CD
The TurboGrafx-CD (1989) was one of the earliest CD-ROM add-ons for a home console, expanding the TurboGrafx-16's library with games too large for cartridges. Its already-niche parent platform combined with the added cost of the CD add-on kept the North American audience small, making complete TurboGrafx-CD sets a genuinely rare find for collectors today.
Gamevaro tracks Gate of Thunder for TurboGrafx CD 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 Gate of Thunder 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 TGCD release dates back to 1992.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Gate of Thunder, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common TurboGrafx CD 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.
