I found out this game was good RIGHT AFTER selling a copy. I had a flea market booth where I bought and sold retro games, happened across Wild Guns in a a yardsale box I got, saw it went for a decent price and I needed money, so it went on the sale shelf without much thought. Slightly later, Mike Matei (the other guy who worked on the angry video game nerd pre-movie) started uploading his own videos and one of the first was '10 Most Underrated SNES Games' and this hit the top of the list. I think this was 2010 or so, peak AVGN popularity, so not only did the price skyrocket immediately after I sold it, once I tried it on an emulator I realized I wouldnt have sold it even for a lot of money cause it's fucking SICK. I did come into an Action 52 cart just a bit before the AVGN video came out for that one and made a shitload on that. I only kept shit I would play, you literally cant play the Action 52 for more than a few minutes unless you wanna risk breaking it. The weird bootleg cartridge gets hotter the longer its running.
