MSX FAN 1987-04 page 67 has valuable The LINKS Konami network game info that complements the previous month's article. Firstly, the LINKS prices of the conventional Konami titles:
Game Retail Price RAM LINKS Price Emperor Yie-Gah 4,800 64 3,000 Goonies 4,800 64 3,000 Road Fighter 4,800 32 3,000 Hyper Rally 4,800 32 3,000 Antarctic Adventure 4,800 32 2,000 Circus Charlie 4,800 32 2,000 Athletic Land 4,800 32 1,000 Video Hustler 4,500 32 1,000 Konami's Ping Pong 4,800 32 2,000 Konami's Soccer 4,800 32 3,000 Hyper Sports 1 4,800 32 2,000 Hyper Sports 2 4,800 32 2,000 Hyper Sports 3 4,800 64 2,000 Mopirange 4,800 32 2,000 Pipols 4,800 32 2,000 Super Cobra 4,800 32 1,000 Yie Ar Kung-Fu 4,800 32 3,000 King's Valley 4,800 32 3,000 Sky Jaguar 4,800 32 2,000 Comic Bakery 4,800 32 2,000 Monkey Academy 4,800 32 1,000 Magical Tree 4,800 32 2,000
Next, the online score attack version of Knighmare = 3000 yen, A1 Grand Prix = 2000 yen incl registration fee. Contrary to what I imagined they were not play-once but could be permanently downloaded and played offline. LINKS had been running the high score competitions since the end of 1986 with 4 contestants reaching 999999 Knightmare score. A1 Grand Prix had "accidents" that could be prevented by locating the clues hidden in the routes and you could win some kind of money with slot machine to buy gasoline.
