River Raid (Intellivision, Boxed and Complete)
Got it at a garage sale along with around 15 other boxed games and an Intellivision unit for $15
(Took TWO bike rides to get it all home) :D

[vintagegamecrazy]

I'm sure I posted earlier in this topic but I'm not going to check. I recently got Congo Bongo with the manual for Intellivision. That's probably the rarest.

[Dr. Retro Gamer]

Malagai + instructions

Lochjaw

Both for the 2600.

[Mayhem]

As of now... hmmm... hard to quantify...

2600 NTSC Asterix proto?
Vic20 Ultima: Mount Drash?
Starcharger Survival Island/Sword of Saros?
C64 Satan cart?
SNES Donkey Kong competition cart?

They're not the most valuable compared to other games (well maybe apart from the Ultima!) but are still ultra rare.

[captain nintendo]

Cheetahmen 2 for NES which is an R9

and

Starfox Super Weekend for SNES which is also an R9

those are my 2 rarest games , but not my hardest to find ;)

[BloodshedPlague]

Mine is Panzer Dragoon Saga and Hopefully Radiant Silvergun soon.

[Nez]

FINALLY found a R7

Sonic Adventure Limited Eddition.

FINALLY!

[briskbc]

It would either by my minty Braindead 13 for the PS or the 2 white promo Dreamcast discs from the UK. I think they were just given to reviewrs.

[nintendo_man]

bubble bath babes complete for nes or a cart on music machine for 2600

[MattyXB]

My Rarest Videogames which I own are all here:
Rare Videogames (http://home.arcor.de/mattyxb/Website/)

Last Time as I see the Rarity Guide (which is not working in the moment by me and all is so slow) was Revenge of the Apes (Planet of the Apes Prototype Hack & Reproduction) my rarest game, which is a R10 in this Guide. :D

But my favourites Rare games are these:
[Atari 2600 VCS] Raiders of the Lost Ark (Prototype with some bytes different)
[Atari 2600 VCS] TAZ (Prototype Titlescreen different without TAZ)
[NES] Crystalis (Prototype some Bytes different)
[SNES] Starwing Competition (German)
[Saturn] Panzer Dragoon Saga (4 CDs Presse Promo)
[PSX] Castlevania - Symphony of the Night (Promo)
[PSX] Final Fantasy IV (Promo)
[PSX] Final Fantasy V (Promo)
[PSX] Final Fantasy VII (Promo)
[PS2] All Promos

[DeanoCalver]

My rarest will probably never appear in any guide as I may have the only finished copy in existance and I'm not sure I can ever restore it to playable form without getting access to a Dreamcast devkit again...

Renegade Racer : Dreamcast

There a bunch of less finished prototypes floating around but that the only one thats 'complete'. (It never got a product code, as it never passed submission due to the Dreamcast market collapse).

Just to prove it almost existed

[towerofsong]

Spirit of Excalibur for the CDTV, with the original map as well.

[video_game_addict]

Well thanks to fcw3, I can just about double the value of this lot of boxed games, can you guess which one I bought from him? ;)

[Lemmy Kilmister]

Hello this is my first time Actually posting anything. Though i i'm a long time guest. :)

I would have to say my rarest games would be

1.Panzer dragoon saga (which i got for free from a old friend).

2.My sealed copies of metal gear and castlevania for nes (which i got for 50 cents a piece :eek 2: ).

3.non-GH xenogears.

4.Muiltable complete snes and sfc games (like Rudra No Hihou,super turrican 2,gunbare goemon 2).

Oh and just the same old chrono trigger and earthbound. LOL

[kelma66]

OK my rarities are only on Colecovision and they include:

TWO copies of Artillery Duel/Chuck Norris Superkicks R7
CBS Schtroumpfs C.I.B R7
Q*bert's Qubes R8
Up'n'Down R7

and a mint CBS version of Fall Guy!! 8-)

I also have a few good R6s including a N.I.B. Jukebox, Sir Lancelot w/manual, Robin Hood and Mr. Do's! Castle
The rarity numbers that i list here are from the DP online rarity guide.

[SkiDragon]

See below.

I can find these rare games, but not some common games that I just want to play. Its annoying.

[Malvanus]

As of this moment the rarest I have is Tower of Doom for the Intellivision complete.

Second would probably be Dragon Warrior II for the NES complete.

[Jasoco]

I'm curious as to what the GBA DOOM port would be as the Rarity Guide doesn't have a rarity number for it yet. I know it has to be pretty rare. I just finally found it yesterday. And I know there are tons of people still looking for it too.

(BTW, I also noticed the Rarity Guide has "Unknown" for the manufacturer/publisher/whatever while DOOM II has Activision. My box says DOOM is Activision too. So they should probably update that.)

[Aussie2B]

Well, according to the Digital Press rarity guide, my rarest games are:

R5:

Rollerblade Racer (loose)
Donkey Kong Jr. Math (loose)
Raiden Trad (loose)
Syd of Valis (loose)
Jaguar XJ220 (complete)
On the Ball (with manual)
Ogre Battle 64: Person of Lordly Caliber (complete)
Castlevania Chronicles (complete)
Doom (loose)

R6:

Quattro Arcade (loose)
Exertainment Mountain Bike Rally (complete)

I highly doubt that Quattro Arcade is as rare as Mountain Bike Rally, so I suppose that's the rarest US game that I own, as least according to the guide. Of coure, it's all very tricky judging my collection since I have so many obscure Japanese imports, and there is no source to find out their rarities. I wouldn't be surprised if weird games I have like Getter Love, Choaniki, Neugier, and others would be pretty high up there.

For the most part, I'm not very concerned with rarity. I care much more about value (and getting a good price compared to the value when I purchase them). I'm not one to seek out rare games nor do I care about having a complete collection for any particular system including all the rare titles. When shopping, I mostly look for good prices on games that interest me (or amuse me in some way, such as when I bought Rollerblade Racer for the hilarious label). Thankfully, most of the best games out there are pretty common. It's the demand and the value I have to watch out for. Games like Chrono Trigger may be pretty common, but when the value is high, it's more exciting to get one at a good price than to find a rare game that can be had for next to nothing because nobody gives two craps about it. I have a TON of high in-demand games, especially because I buy RPGs like crazy. I have every US released Square SNES game (not counting Breath of Fire which is a Capcom game), and I have a buttload of RPGs on other consoles, including nearly every one worth having on PlayStation (including the ever-so-expensive Suikoden 2).

[quote="testament89"]Hello this is my first time Actually posting anything.

2.My sealed copies of metal gear and castlevania for nes (which i got for 50 cents a piece :eek 2: ).


Last time I checked Metal Gear is not rare for the Nes. It's common as the SMB/DH carts. But factory sealed I guess it would be kinda rare, but that would be the same thing for anyother Nes game. As for Castlevania thats rare/common. Cause a lot of people have that game. I haven't checked out the rarity list here, but I'm speaking from another rarity list.

Anyways, my rare games that I have are:
Nes: Pac-Man (Namco), Toobin', Castlevania (complete for $10), Star Wars (boxed), Contra Force (boxed). And thats all I can think of now.

I know their not rare games per say. It's just i got them for a doller and their both still sealed (line and everything). The games may be common but they have also been open. I really don't know how much they would go for. Anybody else know?

[Jasoco]

Well, according to the Digital Press rarity guide, my rarest games are:

R5:

Doom (loose)Which console?

[Aussie2B]

I was going to put the system for each game, but I forgot. :P

It's Doom for PlayStation.

[Jasoco]

I was going to put the system for each game, but I forgot. :P

It's Doom for PlayStation.Still good. I have that version. Didn't know it was an R5. You only have the disc? You mention it's loose.

[Aussie2B]

Yup, it's the long-box version, but my boyfriend threw out the case a LONG time ago because he couldn't be bothered with non-standard CD cases. :/

[Jasoco]

Yup, it's the long-box version, but my boyfriend threw out the case a LONG time ago because he couldn't be bothered with non-standard CD cases. :/Mine's missing the instructions. :(

[DigitalSpace]

Here's a small update to my previous posts in this thread. I'd simply edit my original posts, but since this is a classic discussion that's not allowed:

Zero The Kamikaze Squirrel for SNES has been moved from an R8 to an R7. So my copy is pretty much dead even with copy of Joshua: The Battle Of Jericho for Genesis when it comes to the rarest games I own. Zero is still my rarest SNES game, though.

Also, this is nothing, but just for the hell of it... my rarest Playstation games are Qix Neo and Pro Pinball: Fantastic Journey. Both R3. Sad, huh?

[TEXASGAMEPLAYER]

I wish I had a STARBLADE ALPHA (CRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!SOB, SOB) You have no idea what I would do for a STARBLADE ALPHA. Very sick and demeaning things!

[Jasoco]

TEXASGAMEPLAYER, please edit that post. Remove about 10 dozen of the Y's. Scrolling is so annoying. :angry:

[tededfred]

SNK Vs. Capcom Card Fighters clash Ver. 2 SNK store demo for NGPC

[robotriot]

According to the guide, my rarest one is Soccer/Football for the Vectrex (with overlay and manual) at R8 - although I kind of doubt this number is correct, as all MB releases have R7+ and they're by far not that rare here :)

[the_wizard_666]

The rarest game I own is a toss up between my boxed Big Nose Freaks Out (NES, R7) or my sealed Titus S.O.S. (SNES; R6). I'd probably lean toward S.O.S. because it is still sealed.

[Balloon Fight]

According to the guide, my rarest one is Soccer/Football for the Vectrex (with overlay and manual) at R8 - although I kind of doubt this number is correct, as all MB releases have R7+ and they're by far not that rare here :)

Actually this game is pretty damn difficult to find in the U.S. In Germany where you're located it is probably a little easier to find mainly because that's where it was realeased, in Europe. I have been looking for one for quite a while and just recently lost one to another vectrex collector on ebay.

[Daria]

For me, it's a three way tie.

Dragon Warrior 4 (r6)
Warsong (r6)
Crusader of Centy (r6)

And what's really annoying, is for both genny games I'm missing a manual. >.<

[Jasoco]

Well, I just found out that I've had an R7 for months. True Pinball for PSX. R7, worth $9, paid $3.99. So far, so good.

[The Great Dane]

I believe mine would have to be Bandit Kings of Ancient China for the NES.

[DigitalSpace]

Also, this is nothing, but just for the hell of it... my rarest Playstation games are Qix Neo and Pro Pinball: Fantastic Journey. Both R3. Sad, huh?

Another update: Thanks to a recent find, the above quote is no longer valid. As I mentioned in the latest Weeday Finds thread, my rarest Playstation game is now V-Tennis, which is an R7.

[mezrabad]

Percepts for the 1972 Odyssey. I think it's an R8 but not certain.

[abdul]

well for me its:

Faselei uk NGPC complete
Cool Boarders Pocket uk NGPC complete
Cotton Uk NGPC complete

[neoro]

I guess Final Fantasy 1 for NES, or Wario's Woods also for NES.

[Doonzmore]

Madded 93 Championship Edition (Complete)-Genesis
Pac-Man (Namco Version Complete)-Nes
Joshua (Complete)- Genesis
Ardy Lightfoot (No Manual)- Snes
Taz Express (No Box)- N64
Hatris(No box or manual)- Nes

Out of those 6 i'd say Madden Champ Edition is the rarest.

[vectrexer]

Vectrex based: Mr. Boston cart

Virtual Boy: Gundam

[Biff_McFresh]

Hmm, neither of these are really rare, but they fetch a good amount of money and are pretty sought after.

Suikoden II (bought it for $9.99 sealed a few years ago)
Suikoden I (same as above, price-wise too)

And PSO EP. 1 & 2 for the GC seems to be rather hard to find on average, so yay for me owning that too =)

[briskbc]

A month ago I picked up a UK Dreamcast demo/sample. One of the white disc games. It was for an unreleased game called MSR Opel Challenge by Bizarre. I have no idea how many of these white discs were actually produced but considering they were intended to be review copies for game mags, it couldn
t be that much.

[brandver3]

Okay, I replied to this a little while ago and some things have changed.

For the NES I have Flintstones:Suprise at Dino Peak.

Saturn: Shining Force 3 (disc and manual only)

Sega CD: Shining Force CD complete
