In Deja Vu , action takes place in Chicago in December 1941.
Your character's name is Theodore "Ace" Harding - a retired boxer working as a private eye.
He wakes up in a toilet stall of a sleazy pub with no memory of who he is or what he is doing there.
To make matters worse, you as him soon stumble upon a very dead corpse upstairs with three bullets buried in him.
Sure enough, you find there's a gun in your pocket with three bullets missing.
From there you have to figure out what happened and who you are before whatever is happening to your brain turns you into a mindless vegetable.
To make matters worse the cops would very much like to have a word with you about that stiff.
About Nintendo Entertainment System
The Nintendo Entertainment System (1983 in Japan, 1985 in the West) revived the North American video game industry after the 1983 crash and established conventions — cartridges, licensing seals, save systems — that shaped the industry for decades. NES collecting is one of the most established retro markets: common titles remain cheap, but a well-known handful of low-print-run games (many from smaller third-party publishers) are among the most expensive video games in existence.
Gamevaro tracks Deja Vu for Nintendo Entertainment System 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.
Adding Deja Vu to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NES release dates back to 1990.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Deja Vu has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning enough copies circulate to establish a reliable market price.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
