Holy NTSCalomy! Ness!

Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought this never made it to Yankee shores in general?

You are terribly wrong! This is nowhere near to rare.

I would strongly advice against purchasing one of these. Most software is euro anyway so you are in for incompatibilities ahoy.

But I thought I read somewhere that Commodore had financial problems and their warehouse full of American CD³²s had to be closed up and the stock be declared unreleased because of it?

I cant speak for the U.S. but the CD32 definately made it to Canada. They sold them for sure at the World of Commodore as I bought one there.

I am almost sure they got sold over there and here we got imported those, not PAL ones. This is not rare Marz boy, don't be fooled, believe me. Now finding a PAL CD32 in Argentina, THAT is rare.

If you ever find a BRAZILIAN produced CD32... now that may be rare.

Yes, they were OFFICIALLY produced here, by a comapany called "PCI". I've met a couple of guys here in Brazil who owned a CD32 in their lives.

I even saw then being sold in stores here, among the Mega-Drives and Super Nintendos

It says
"It's US success was also cut short"
Cut short is not equal to non-existant, marzy boy!
