    Default NES Rarity List?

    On the NES rarity list in the FAQ archive, Stadium Events is a B, while Bible Adventures is a B+. Is there a better rarity guide I should be using?

    Mike Etler himself will tell you that his online list is very outdated. He's been a major factor in the DP Guide rarity list over the past four years.

    I'm assuming that the list you're talking about is Mike Etler's from 1997. You may want to look in the lists section, DP posted a bunch of rarity lists recently. If there isn't an NES one, and you don't want to shell out the money for a DP quide or a VGB, rest assured that most of the stuff on Etler's list is still quite accurate. The Stadium Events thing is the only real error I can think of off hand. He did a hell of a job really, I commited that whole list to memory a long time ago.

    I just bought the DP guide a couple days ago from Amazon, so hopefully that will put all my doubts to rest about the rarity of my games

    FYI, when Etler was doing his list, Stadium Events passed through his hands more than some other games. Hence, the B.
