[VG_Maniac]

My single rarest game is now Fun 'N Games for SNES.

[bobdrywalls]

For shits and giggles, let's bump this up.

[dj_spryte]

My rarest item would have to be a factory sealed CHRONO TRIGGER for the SNES. Vertical seal and all. I also picked up a factory sealed SUPER TURRICAN 2 for SNES for 15 dollars.

[dj898]

I haven't bumped into nor found anyone else with Sega Saturn pre-production prototype console...

[mb7241]

My rarest? A couple R9 Odyssey games, plus a Japanese Zelda Collector's Edition (GC; a lot rarer than you may think)... Also, I know where I can get a(nother) copy of Team Buddies (PS1; R8) for cheap... As for systems, I have a Korean version Halo Xbox, a Mountain Dew Xbox, a CDI 615, and an Odyssey, among others.

Edit: Since the seller who sold me the Zelda collection didn't exactly follow through...I edited my listing to reflect what is not presently in my hands. Also, since the original time of this post, I have gotten and sold/traded 3 copies of Team Buddies (and presently have a 4th). And on the way (hopefully...Adol is doing his part of the job at the moment), a complete Final Fantasy for the MSX (likely the rarest MSX release...at last check, it was unlisted in the DP online guide). :)

[Jumpman Jr.]

Star Fox Competition Cartridge

Intellivision:
Spiker! Super Pro Volleyball

I would say that my rarest items are:

Suikoden II (PS, pal) factory sealed

Legend of dragoon (PS, pal) factory sealed.....in germany Legend of dragoon mint goes for about 55 Dollar

M.A.C.S. (SNES)

[Whiskers the Wonder Cat]

NES system(Model 2)
Valkeryie Profile for the PSone Region 1
Suikoden 2 for the PSone Region 1

Uh, that's about it sadly.

[ProgrammingAce]

4 "TEST" debugging station PS2's
Some other Dev kits i can't talk about.
Duck Hunt/SMB... er, wait....
A bunch of Proto's i can't talk about.
The unreleased ultraviolent version of Punisher for the xbox.

It's nice being in the industry.

I'm giving out free bumps...

[macrophage]

(This is my 1st post here / former lurker)

Atari Video Music [C-240]

Pac-Man Arcade [Upright]
(Though not rare among Arcade Machine Owners)

[Wily]

Propeller Arena GD incl. System Disc 2 should be my rarest item. I own 3 complete Mega Man 1 PAL-B for NES, too...

Dunno... is Bubble Symphony for Saturn JAP kind of rare?

[20eyes]

Nothing real spectacular:

Nes: Blues Brothers prototype
Game Cube: Bust a Move 3000

[vintagegamecrazy]

I just picked up a sealed Atari 5200 Zenji, not a major rare game but a sealed one is quite a sight.

[Bleetness]

I guess its my copy of Harleys humongous adventure for snes, or Maui Mallard in cold shadow. I know :( Not that rare.

[tototheexplorer]

I just started collecting, so...um...I guess my mint copy of Guardian Heroes. Cubivore was my second rarest until the re-release.

[MattyXB]

My newest Rarest Videogame:

Little Magic (PAL Unreleased Prototype)

Released only in Japan, so its Rarer then all other Prototypes which I own in the moment.

[sharp]

If I look at the rarity guide it is Poxket Reversi for NGPC english clammshell (got it from ebay for 10$ complete bin). Other rare games would be Card Fighters Clash 2 for the NGPC.

Also have a european democart from Yoshi Touch & Go (was free) and a complete european version of Stack Up (box has some crushes and manual a fold, for the rest new old stock). I think especially Stack Up is really hard to find complete in a European version.

[diediemydarling]

mine would be my top loading nes or some of my nes games

[christhegamer]

Probably my copy of Tengen Tetris for the NES :D

There might be something even rarer in my collection, but I can't think of anything right now...

[sharp]

I need to add the Starwing Competition cart I found this weekend in the wild. I think I paid a cheap prce with 75 euro.

[Plasaw]

Gunstar Heroes [game only :(] for Mega Drive II (Genesis) ,pal, but I'm not sure if this is a rare game.

[jose.yoshitake]

Well, I don't know if my items are thaaaat rare, but to me they are at least
uncommon:

Tengen Tetris (NES)
Comando Noturno (Odyssey 2)
Barão Vermelho (Odyssey 2)
Rockboard (Famicom)
Super Tetris 2 + Bombliss Limited Edition (Super Famicom)
Summer Carnival '92: RECCA (Famicom)

[linlhutz]

California Raisins (NES)

Also have a few NES Tengen Protos. Nothing too special though.

[briskbc]

I guess I'll update my 2 year old post. I have 3 games that are rare or at least interesting additions to my collection

1) Psychic Detective - PS1- My rarest game based stricly on the DP guide.
2) Pre 9/11 Spiderman 2 - PS1 - This has the orginal game content before it was stopped during production in order to change some levels after Sep 11.
3) MSR Opel Challenge - DC - A white label PAL demo of a game that was never produced.

[sidusson]

- 2 mario golf diskdrive gold spezial editions, only contest winners got this one
-4 majoras mask LE big box, very rare 100worldwide
-2 Oracle of seasons big box LE, also very rare 500worldwide
-1 Oot SPecial Edition big Box and small gold one collector, never seen before the big box, the other is common
-1 Wind Waker LE big Box very rare, only 300 worldwide
-custom made dreamcast paint

and some more 8-)

[graboid9]

A R8 3DO Woody Woodpecker & Friends Vol. 1 is my rarest...
then probably Raystorm for the PSX

[shanonw76]

I have a couple that I would define as my rarest:

NES Console Test Cart (grey version) R10!!
NES Dizzy Proto
NES Game Genie Proto
And finally an Atari Developers cart with a case of rom chips

Out of production games, I'd have to say my Complete Hot Slots for NES.

[drgrafix]

My rarest would have to be Tengen's AIRBALL. It's a final EEPROM in the black Tengen case (no label) and I believe its one of three in existence. I have a deposit on it right now and hopefully the sale will be final in January. Going price was/is over $1000.00 and the buyer is in Europe. I also had a Tengen XYBOTS which was sold to a collector here in the USA. Yes, I'm slowly liquidating my collection :).

I have two different types of Gameboy genuine Nintendo prototype cartridges, one is a small grey piece with the EEPROM cut into it, the other is a huge thing... easily the size of the actual gameboy with multiple EEPROM slots in it. Also a grey OEM Nintendo piece.

Have some tiny little chips for these EEPROMs.

There's more on my list of prototypes in another post where I offered them for sale.

[S_W_Prof]

my rarest iteam would probable have to be
Ghost manor for the 2600

its not the rarest thing its the rarest i got

[Tbowl]

As game-wise, probably sealed Cheetahman II. For console-wise, probably sealed Atari 2600 Test Console. In general, probably retail reference guides (PS and XBox)

[Bleach_and_Vomit]

Chrono trigger prerelease complete - not sure how rare it is but i offered 100 bucks for it and he took the offer.

[Hounder]

My rarest are for NES and they are:

Mr. Gimmick
Flinstones: Suprise at Dinosaur Peak
Donkey Kong Jr. Math with Box (looking for a manual)

And then if my two orange NES carts I bought of Ebay turn out to be genuine, then I might have some REALLY rare stuff there!

[retroplayer]

My complete rodland for the nes and mr gimmick.

[Jumpman Jr.]

Just got a copy of Stadium Events for the NES.
Currently, my rarest item.

[Rejinx]

Hmm...
nothing really rare
highest valued classic: Final Fantasy
Rarest game: Pipe Dream for NES
Rarest item: Game Player's Strategy Guide To Nintendo Games Issue 1

[Fighter17]

Raystom for the PSX, and MUSHA for the Sega Genesis are my rarest items, I think.

[ahamilton0953]

My rarest is a complete Montezuma's Revenge for the Sega Master System ( R6 ) Bu I do have a complete Suikoden II which is worth more =) ( have Suikoden I but no case/book ).

[blue lander]

None of my games are all that rare. Among the rarest I'd say are Jet Set Willy on Beecard for the MSX, Super God Trooper Zeroigar for the PC-FX, and Rayxanber for the FM Towns.

[Juganawt]

I've got a few rare titles, but the ones probably the most rare are:

Panzer Dragoon Saga (PAL Saturn)
Radiant Silvergun (JPN Saturn)
Wildroid 9 (JPN PS1)
Policenauts (JPN, got on both Saturn & PS1)
Snatcher (JPN - Saturn & PS1, PAL - Mega CD)
Propeller Arena (DC - Promo)
Clayfighters Extreme (PS1 - Beta)
Street Fighter II Interactive Movie (JPN Ps1)

and my jewel in the Crown..

Nakoruru - Dreamcast JPN

Ok the game's not that rare normally, but this one is sealed in a presentation pack (with a Nakoruru doll) and is signed by the developer personally.

Oh, and I have an Xbox 360, they're still pretty rare! (unless you're living in Japan when you can't move for seeing one on the store shelves)

[Tan]

i think Silent Bomber PSX (R6) is my rarest game so far

[Fuyukaze]

I'd say my loose copy of Pieces for the SNES is the most rare game I have. Oddly enough, its actualy a very fun game for what it is.

[marshmannes]

My rarest game is the pointless, horrible Lawnmower Man for Sega CD. The only reason I got it was because it was hardly anything. My loose Braindead 13 for PS1 is also quite rare as well.

[dj898]

umm... how about demolition men for 3DO released in Japan then? :p

[Lozza]

The only rare games I have anymore is the mint/brand new NEO GEO POCKET COLOR (clear) I bought on ebay from Japan. Not that rare but I plan to get alot of the games that never made it to the states.

[Kyle15]

Here are some of my noteworthy titles:

Earthbound (loose)
Klonoa: Door to Phantomile (complete)
Gitaroo Man (complete)
Silhouette Mirage (complete) PS1 version
PaRappa The Rapper (complete)

It's quite funny actually, I paid more for those
other games than Earthbound. I got it for $5.00!! LOL

[Von-Zipper]

Death crimson on Saturn.

I sold them but I used to have Mizubaku Adventure and Courier Crisis en Saturn Jap.

[Undertaker]

I have a few rare items,Swordquest Waterworld with manual,Chase the chuckwagon(got this for 3.00 at a flea market :eek 2: )Namco pac-man complete for nes,Valkrye profile (missing manual figures :roll: )miner 2049er 2,dragon warrior 4 everything except box.I did sell stadium mud buggies on ebay a few years ago for 128.00 :evil: not bad for a 2.00 buy at a toy show! never was a big intel fan. 8-)

[Yamazaki]

I don't have any prototypes but at least some rares for my PC Engine and Co.

PCE:

Darius Alpha
Sapphire SEALED
Sylphia SEALED

Neo Geo:

Ninja Masters


PCFX:

Kishin Doujin Zenki - bought it for 20$!!


the most expensive thing is probabyl my still unpacked Diver-2000 Dreamcast.

[Mr_Elimin8]

Team Buddies for the PSX. (R8)

[Captain Qb]

So, the DP's rarity guide says this..

- Mystical Ninja 2: Starring Goemon (N64, Loose) 4
- Bank Panic (SMS, CiB) 4
- Twisted Edge Snowboarding (N64, Loose) 3
- NHL '97 (Megadrive, CiB) 3
- Ghouls'n Ghosts (SMS, Loose) 3
- Big Air (PSX, CiB) 3

Lol, so.. My collection isn't so rare.. ^.^

[dj_spryte]

I'm a serious SNES collector. These are my most rare SNES games. In rarity order, more or less.

1. Ogre Battle factory sealed
2. Fun 'n Games complete NTSC version (R8)
3. Super Turrican 2 factory sealed (R7)
4. Adventures of Kid Kleetz complete (R7)
5. Hurricanes complete (R7)

[Moo Cow]

My most expensive games are Suikoden 2 (PSX) and Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 (PS2), which I bought for 40 each sealed when they came out. I only recently found out these go for extreme prices when they're opened. I have everything for them, too, so I'm happy!
Besides that, they're fucking awesome games.
My rarest one, though, is Mr. Nutz, which scores a 6.
Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 doesn't have a rarity beside it, but it does go for quite a bit of money sometimes.

[odyeiop]

My rarest would probably be Cheetahmen II, =D got it on eBay not to long ago.

[Hounder]

I'm going to have to add these for my rare NES games:

Jimmy Connor's Tennis NTSC Complete
Huge Insect Complete
Tajin' Dragon Complete

Probably my rarest right there. They are so hard to find complete.

[BrokenFlight]

Before last weekend my rarest games were only R5s. Then I got Zero the Kamikaze Squirrel, which is an R7. Unfortunately, it doesn't have the manual.

[mailman187666]

mine is a U.S. Panzer Dragoon Saga and 3d baseball for Saturn and the rare variation of Polaris for the 2600

[Slate]

Tank brigade for the Atari 2600, It's sealed in box, never opened.

Second most rare, Poy Poy for the Playstation. An R7, It's a fun game too.

[Dangerboy]

For now, my Elemental Gearbolt Assassin's Case.

[Vectorman0]

For now, my Elemental Gearbolt Assassin's Case.

But there are like 40 of those right? Certainly you can do better than that! LOL ;)

[Hounder]

My new rarest (and probably will be for some time to come) is my Myriad 6 in 1 Box and Manual. Just got to get the game for it now :)

Drgrafix, I think I now own this same proto you sold to our Europe friend unless you have two. But mine has a label. This is now my rarest - and probably will always be - item in my collection :) Which btw, is an R10 on the DP Rarity list in case anyone cares.

[Serragon]
