Jerry Boy Manga (Lost Media?)

Artwork and a page snippet from the Jerry Boy (Smartball) manga.

I'd love to get this manga someday. It seems to be the opposite of the manga created for Mendel Palace (Quinty) where, instead of being separate episodic stories, each chapter is part of a large, ongoing narrative that tries to adapt the game's story. There's even some behind-the-scenes sections that showcase some planning sheets for the game's mechanics and sprites.

It seems like it could be an interesting read. Especially for those who want to learn more about the development of a game like Jerry Boy. The auction I got these images from was around ¥20,000, which is far from affordable for me. (Then again, it is warranted since this manga is pretty old and hard to come by)

Maybe the manga will resurface someday in the future.

The Nintendo consoles are action packed, thanks to.. Sony? Yes, with games like Hook, Smartball and.. Hudson Hawk.
