I'll scan it later tonight or possibly tomorrow, when I get my flatbed hooked up again.

But it seems like we aren't supposed to see it, because it's impossible to take out. I disassembled the box as far as I could without cutting it in pieces but the picture is just connected to the box, really. It's part of it.
Only Fonzie knows the answer to this, I think. Although, speaking as someone who does creative works, they probably put it there because they could. That piece was probably going to be there regardless, so they might have just said, "Hey, let's print something on there so it faces the back of the box.

Sometimes creators do stuff just to annoy people. Because it's fun.

Damn right! We did it many, many times when creating this game :).

I'm getting a 32x later in the week, but I already started the game and am about 7hrs into it.
Can I still get the 32X easter egg or special since I already started the game or do I need to start a new one?
Thanks.

I don't have a 32x (but searching for one in order to play kolibri, my only 32x game), but I would say yes, as I know where this easter egg is. So you can continue your game with your save and search for it. :wink:

I'm amazed many other things have been found before the 32X easter egg.

How will we know when we find it?
Can we have a hint because having 3 large AC adapters plugged in at once is a power drain and takes up lots of space.

Maybe there's a Kolibri cart somewhere in the game.

I wish there was a hidden message stating that those of us with the 32x can get a "32x-Sega CD" edition of the soundtrack with enhanced videos but much crappier sound by sending in UPC labels! (j/k) Anyone remember Surgical Strike for the Sega CD right before they canceled it? Apparently that one doesn't exist. Or Farenheit? The 32x CD had terrible sound compared to the blue 16 bit one.

I have played through the majority of the game with a 32X attached and there has been nothing. I disconnected the 32X and have been playing without recently in order to get slightly sharper RGB video (the 32X blurs things a tiny bit when you are viewing everything in RGB). So unless the developers specifically say otherwise, I'd say the 32X easter egg is just a rumor.

No, I swear - there IS a 32X exclusive easter egg in the game. And it's also very useful against the final boss.

Well, I doubt I am in any position to get it now. I am saved at a doorway or two before the final boss.

Then you simply missed it... :twisted: I'm not sure you searched well or if yes, there's something you didn't understand in the game...

There is certainly something I am not understanding about your post!

Well, to be honest, I don't have a 32X so I couldn't check exactly what the 32x easter egg does, but I know where it is, and if you're in front of the final boss, all I will say is that you missed it.
So just a simple question, and don't see any provocation here, but how did you play the game? Did you searched a bit everywhere, talked to every NPC or just went forward to the goal ? In the second case, it's normal you missed it. In the first case, it may be normal also, but in that case, I repeat that there's a tiny thing in the game you didn't took attention.
Don't worry, it's easy to miss it.

Well as I said I didn't play the entire game with the 32X attached so it probably never appeared. Although the game is good, I probably won't play through it again for a while. I don't think that the developers will ever let on about any of the easter eggs.
