The wave cannon is now able to track enemies and there are two new types of weapons: search laser and shotgun laser.
For the land units a new anti-ground bomb can be used.
The arcade game and most versions derived from it such as the Amiga one contain six levels, each with their own boss.
The Game Boy version has five levels and does not incorporate the new weapons.
About Game Boy
The original Game Boy (1989) proved that handheld gaming didn't need cutting-edge graphics to succeed — its monochrome screen and legendary battery life, combined with Tetris as a pack-in, made it a cultural phenomenon. Game Boy cartridges are famously durable, so this remains one of the more accessible retro platforms to collect, though translucent color variants and complete-in-box copies with the original brick-sized manual add real value for condition-focused collectors.
Gamevaro tracks R-Type II (1992) for Game Boy with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
