Yup, I've never seen a HOL Rodland, but I'm also not sure if ESP Rodland copies were actually sold in the Netherlands. Spain is a very popular spot for Dutch ppl to go to on vacation, tons of them go there, so it is very likely that some simply picked up the copies of Rodland while on vacation there.

Did you buy it new in the Netherlands or 2nd hand? As far as I know there has been no proof to show that Rodland was actually sold in stores in the Netherlands. So far the copies that Dutch collectors own are from 2nd hand places, and it makes sense that it's ESP since that's the only PAL-B version known to exist and Spain is a common vacation spot for a large percentage of Dutch people.

I'm no expert on PAL stuff but from my knowledge, Rodland was only released in Spain (PAL-B), and very minimal quatities in Italy and the UK(?). The UK I'm not sure on still but I know at least Spain and Italy had Rodland released. I've never heard elsewhere but then again I could be wrong like I was when I said that those dang black carts didn't exist....

You could buy games like Top Gun 2, Tale Spin, Asterix and George Foreman KO Boxing in grocery stores (possibly other places too). These games had ESP code (FRA on Asterix) and a paper with swedish text as manual.

I bought it second hand, but the ESP doesn't mean a lot here, Most games I have bought (also new games) say FRA or ESP, and some NOE..
I guess a lot of import was going on in the Netherlands Tongue

But Rodland isn't that rare over here I think, I know a lot of people in holland who own a Rodland cart, and they were definately sold here (import probably).

Same goes for pirate gear.. if you want to own a lot of pirate stuff you should come to holland Tongue

Haven't found a single fleemarket where they don't sell fake nes's for a couple of euros
