About this game
As Popeye , you are trying to win Olive Oyl's love! She is at the top of the screen dropping tokens of her love, and you need to collect them before they hit the ground.
After you have collected the required number of items, you can move on to the next, more difficult level.

There are many obstacles trying to stop you from completing your task, though! Brutus wanders around the screen and is constantly trying to catch you.
If you collect a can of spinach, you can temporarily knock him out, otherwise, Brutus will knock you out.
Other objects such as bottles or birds are also flying around the screen and will cause you to lose one of your lives if you are hit.
Each level features a different layout of platforms and ladders, and will have you collecting different items as they float towards the bottom of the screen!
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 Popeye [5 Screw] 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 Popeye [5 Screw] 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 1986.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Popeye [5 Screw] 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.
