The photos are of this exact copy — look them over closely for its condition, packaging and details. Every cartridge's shell, label and board are checked for authenticity when it comes into the store, and it's tested before it's listed. It ships in a collector's bag or a hard plastic case.

Item Description

Hoth is where the Empire strikes, and it is where this game starts testing your nerve. Super Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back drops Luke Skywalker onto the ice planet with a blaster and a lightsaber, then sends him, Han Solo and Chewbacca through a side-scrolling retelling of the film's biggest moments, from the frozen battlefields around the Rebel base to the swamps of Dagobah and the gleaming corridors of Cloud City.

Dagobah is where the game gets clever. Under Yoda's guidance, Luke picks up Force powers that change how he fights and survives for the rest of the adventure, giving the second half a very different feel from the first. Between the platforming stages, Mode 7 vehicle sections put you in the cockpit of a snowspeeder, swooping around the giant Imperial Walkers as they advance across the snow, a scene every Star Wars fan has wanted to play since 1980.

It is also a hard game, famously so. Enemies swarm from every direction, the jumps demand precision, and the long march toward Luke's confrontation with Darth Vader on Bespin feels earned when you finally get there. Developed by Sculptured Software with LucasArts and published in North America by JVC in 1993, it builds on the first Super Star Wars with more variety and more spectacle, with John Williams' themes rendered in rich 16-bit sound.

As the middle chapter of the Super Star Wars trilogy, it is the one many players remember most vividly: the snowspeeder runs on Hoth, the Force training on Dagobah, the satisfaction of finally clearing a stage that had flattened you twenty times. For a Star Wars games shelf, the JVC release sits right at the heart of the run between Super Star Wars and Super Return of the Jedi.
