Nerdicus NES Review #147: Cowboy Kid


Title : Cowboy Kid

Publisher : Romstar

Developer : Pixel

Genre : Action

Players : 1 / 2 Players

Release Date : 1992

Estimated Value (as of today's date) : $100-$150

Is that Tom Selleck? Oh...my...GOD...is that TOM SELLECK!? No one can sport a moustache like that except Tom Selleck. And who's that Native American? Antonio Banderas?! This game is filled with top notch movie celebs! Although, I wouldn't really call Tom Selleck top notch anymore. Think his last major film was probably Three Men and a Baby.

So the name of this game is COWBOY KID, but he doesn't look like much of a kid. Well, I guess it makes sense if it's just a nickname. After all, there was Billy the Kid...but he was a kid. Okay, I'm not sure what to make of this. Regardless, it's pretty self explanatory as to what kind of game this is going to be. An action western of course! Haven't seen many of these for the NES, so this should be a doozy.

Not to mention this is probably in the top 20 of rarest NES games out there. A limited release, combined with the fact that it came out in late 1992 would pretty much make this game an expensive collectors target. I'm talking around $150 loose, and almost $400 CIB. So if you have this bad boy lying on your shelf, you've got some gold. If not, well, good luck finding one. I've yet to snag this.
