What is the Rarest System You Own ?

[autobotracing]

mine i guess would be a complete sega cdx

[buttasuperb]

trade me that cdx.

i guess my rarest system would be a boxed neo geo aes.

[sir_lavey]

I think it's :
European system : Sega MultiMega
US system : Super Nintendo (it's the only one system from US I own)
Japanese system : Casio Loopy

mmmmmmm i would love to have a aes system

[udisi]

PSX blue Test Station

[mattpfeil]

I guess mine would be a toploader, just got it in the mail yesterday....and check out the bargain i got on it:P

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1376256490&ed=1030333086&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOA:US:2

[mattpfeil]

dangit i dont think that worked, anyways, i got a BIN for $9.99 with no cords or anything, just the loose system. $15 shipping, and then another $14CDN for the stupid customs charge, all in all, still like half the price i woulda paid normally

[Raedon]

computer hardware: Easily my Kaypro II Luggable..
Console Hardware: hmm.. Top Loader, or mint Piggyback Sega CD one or the other..

[Syclone]

I have a couple of CDX's for trade/sell that i dont really need, i was planing on selling them at the CinciClassic show on oct. 4-5th. But im open for trade or sell.

-Chris

email me if interested

[rbudrick]

I've got an APF MP1000. But I have a Mega CD that Says "Property of Sega of America" on it. No lockouts that I have seen...but then again did the Sega CD have lockouts?

-Rob

[ashbourn]

it is a toss up between my
Boxed mint condition 2600 6 switch with manuals and catalogs
and my boxed min condition 32x with manuals catalogs

[Kroogah]

My Wonderswan Color. I know, readily available in JAPAN....here, on the other hand...

[Tetsu]

Sega CD does have a lockout: You need a Mega Key or Super Key to play imports.

[CrazyImpmon]

My rarest system would be the front loading NES that doesn't go blink-blink. :lol:

Next to that is my Vectrex.

[Sylentwulf]

I dunno :)

I have a toploader, Channel F, Turboduo. Probly one of those. Also have the columbia house version of atari complete.

[slapdash]

Japanese system : Casio Loopy


Hey, what is this thing? Is it just a label maker of sorts? I've seen it, and the cartridges, in auctions, but it's not clear exactly what it is...

[slapdash]

I don't know how rare they are, but Japanese:

Bandai TV Jack 5000
Casio PV-1000 & PV-2000
Epoch Cassettevision & Super Cassettevision
Epoch PokeKon
Gakken TV Boy
Othello Multivision
Sega SG-1000 & SG-1000 II

I love that old obscure stuff!

As for the US, maybe my Super Micro (Palmtex PVS) handheld, though it's not video. I don't have anything too rare in that regard... Maybe Vectrex or APF, or Coleco Telstar Arcade.

[ubersaurus]

Memorex Vis.

Japanese system : Casio Loopy

[punkoffgirl]

Umm... I've only got a DC, N64, & Coleco, but there's a Vectrex in the house with a multicart plugged into it that's practically mine ;)
And there's a Pac Man arcade in the other room, but that doesn't really count :D

[sir_lavey]

Japanese system : Casio Loopy

It's a console system designed for the girl ! You can play some (crappy) games but what makes it cool is the fact that there is a printer in it.

Sylvain

[GENESISNES]

my dad has a boxed atari 2600 4 switch wood grain with all inserts, and the dustcover.

[autobotracing]

I guess either my Neo Geo AES, Vectrex, or Coleco Telstar Arcade (soon anyway)

Nothing THAT rare...

dave

http://www.pong-story.com/pics/coleco/small/marksman.jpgthats the one i have

[biggamer]

MY GAME AXE,AND CHROME JAPANESE PANASONIC GAME CUBE

[coleco_chris]

Top-loading Nintendo I got from Funcoland for $35.00!
Intv III with box.

[TheRedEye]

I guess my Famicom Disk System and my Dr. PC Jr. Hey, what can I say? I like my Nintendo games to be on non-cartridge media!

[Mr. NEStalgia]

Show offs!!!!! :cry:

The rarest system I own is a regular NES.

I know...its sad...

-=Mr. NEStalgia=-

[Captain Wrong]

Top-loading Nintendo I got from Funcoland for $35.00!

Hey! I got my top loader at Funco too! I always tell people who want one to ask them and be patient. (That and hope you have employees there who will actually check rather than just going to the back room and coming back out with out doing a damn thing!) I got mine the frist time I asked. Whoo hoo!

Other than that, Virtual Boy is about it.

[gamergary]

i am getting my top loader from pa_nes_ian for about $20

[buttasuperb]

most of the time i ask funco if they have a toploader, they just tell me they can sell them for 100 on ebay, so why sell it to me for 35. fuckin assholes. it dont matter though, i got my top loader complete with box and manual.

[Buyatari]

Well Butta one phone will take care of that if you really feel the need.

Adam

[Goodwill Hunter]

My rarest system would have to be my APF-M1000/Imagination Machine combo, complete with all power cords, Basic cartridge and "J" connector ...found bagged at a Goodwill for $9.99 and almost passed over until I wondered, "Why would they bag a typewriter?"

Rich

[geelw]

either my bandai playdia, casio msx, or the fm towns marty (i should have the latter in my hot little hands by next week- joy!)

[Tempest]

I've been looking for a Imagination Machine for a long time. I got the Basic cartridge years ago, but with the IM it's useless. What is this "J" connector?

BTW have you tried your M1000 on a large TV? I found that mine won't work on anything bigger than a 16" TV.

Tempest

[Raedon]

Hmm is a Sega Nomad rarer then a top loader?

[Keir]

rarest console: NTSC Amiga CD32

[ventrra]

My rarest would either be my Coleco Adam or my Microvision.

Tempest

The "J" connector (my term) is what connects the M1000 to the IM. The short end goes into the M1000 as it sits on the IM, the long end goes into the first of the 2 cartridge slots on the IM. Then carts can be played through the 2nd slot on the IM. Viewed from the side, it literally looks like a block letter capital "J".

And I'm pretty sure I had it hooked up to a 19" TV at one point.

[ianoid]

You know I'm lame when I'm thinking I should do some research into my inventory to answer this question.

Perhaps it's my Adventurevision.
Perhaps my Bandai Arcadia complete in box.
Or maybe my Haminex Ramses (Creativision clone.)
I do have a Super Cassette Vision Lady in the mail. She's a beauty.

Too bad only Slapdash will recognize all 4 of those. I think my goal in collecting is strictly to make Russ Perry jealous. How's it going Russ?

And let me state, for the record, that there is nothing lame about claiming your NES or Wonderswan are your rarest items. At least you have fun systems! Most of this crap I dig collecting are not for play- just for looks. I definitely would be just as well off if I was just sitting here with an NES and 10 choice carts. I'd probably be having more fun playing them than I would struggling to pay for rare systems I won't play.

Heh, well, you've only got me on 3 of the 4, as I at least have the SCV Lady already. I might have gotten a Bandai Arcadia, but the cost would have been exorbitant.

[mrjones2]

Well, my rarest Console must be Intervision 2001 ( An Emerson Arcadia Clone ), or Sheen 2001 ( Same thing ) or maybe it is C64 Aussie version.

mrjones

[Monochrome]

Well nothing real rare but:
2 Vectrex
The Odyssey 300
The Odyssey 3000 in a box
Sears Tele-Games Heavy Sixer

[sphereman]

I just got Indy 500 By Video Action. It has Racing car Games and
Pong games it in made 1976. :)
Thanks,
Tim 8)

[ROBOTRON]

I guess its a 3-way tie between my:

Atari 2600
TurboGraphx-16
Neo-geo Console

[le geek]

Well it used to be a Pink Hello Kitty dreamcast, but traded it for a Turbo Duo and Turbo Express. Second place NES top loader (a hand me back from my dad when NES Open died on him and we got him a PSX and Hot Shots Golf...)

cheers,
le geek

[slapdash]

I'm pretty sure that Russ wil reply fast after i've posted this message, heh, heh, heh...

Now, why would I do that...


Oh and Russ, you didn't mentioned that you too own a BBC Bridge Companion. ;)

Well, I wasn't going to list EVERYTHING... I never know if obscurity really means rarity in these cases.

(Oh, and re-reading the thread, I think Ianoid did you a disservice figuring that I'd be the only one that recognized the 4 systems he mentioned)

[gameman007]

I guess my near mint boxed odyssey.

[nitebycandlelite]

Um... to me, probably my Boxed Genesis 3. To the US users, erm... Nah. Nothing obscure. Although I DO have Terranigma on the SNES. :twisted: (sorry. WILDLY OT)

[kainemaxwell]

Rarist for me would possibly by my Sega CDX and Atari 2600.

[scmsx]

My rarest system is an obscure Brazilian 8-bit computer, MX Compacto.

Sergio

[Sly DC]

Hi Russ,


(Oh, and re-reading the thread, I think Ianoid did you a disservice figuring that I'd be the only one that recognized the 4 systems he mentioned)

Well depends on his point of view. We all know that you're a game console collector. Since you're posting very more often than me, Ian must have think that i was gone, dead or something. :D

There's too many game systems that we could label "RARE", especially the ones that are too weird or obscure to be known.

For now, i can't say anything about a project i'm working on but it does relate to video games. If i can finished this project, i'll be in heaven! :P ('nuff said!).

[driftout625]

An Amstrad Mega PC (plays Megadrive/Genesis games via a cartridge slot on the front left of the unit).

[Savedman]

Memorex VIS
Vectrex
Toploader
K-mart brand of PONG still in box

[wizardofwor]

Sears Telegames Arcade II mint in box :D

a/k/a Atari 2800

OR

Videopac G7400

a/k/a European Odyssey 2

Which is the rarest of the 2??

[hurstman]

I have a boxed T I /99/4A with 10 games and the speach expansion.

[Boboduo]

I guess it would be my 2 vectrexes.(I got 1 free ;) )

[RetroYoungen]

Rarest system I've got is my Neo Geo Pocket Color. It was a pain to get one when I first could afford one, but after finding it, I can only say "Thank you CGE!"

[dreamcaster]

I have an Atari 2600 Jr. - is that rare? Can someone tell me?

While it's common to you Americans, my NTSC N64 is priceless here in Australia!

The rest of my consoles are commoners. I think!

[game-o_v_e_r]

I recently have got into Bally Astrocade stuff, and I just one a Bally Home Library Computer.....It is the send away version of the Bally Astrocade that was released in 1977.....Pretty wierd. I also had a Tomy Tutor working system with 8 games.

[Nomeaz1]

Not sure which is the rarest...but here is what I have (nothing really rare):

Panzer Dragoon Orta White Limited Edition XBOX (new)
Limited Edition Black Skeleton Nintendo 64 (new)
Nintendo 64 DD (new)
Super Famicom Satellaview (new) - makes a nice paper weight.
Sharp Twin Famicom (new)

[Ed Oscuro]

Not sure which is the rarest...but here is what I have (nothing really rare):

Panzer Dragoon Orta White Limited Edition XBOX (new)
Limited Edition Black Skeleton Nintendo 64 (new)
Nintendo 64 DD (new)
Super Famicom Satellaview (new) - makes a nice paper weight.
Sharp Twin Famicom (new)

o_O

Nice...nice...too much money you have...as if any of that will lose value, I think not. The Sharp Twin actually isn't too rare; the rarest *functional* Famicom item would be the Sharp "Titler" unit, which is a Famicom that can add titles to your home videos. Hooray...

My rarest item (not really rare at all) on the hardware side would have to be my MSX2, but I haven't been buying systems (in fact, at the moment the only other system I consider a collectible is my Neo Geo AES. Gold System, but who cares?)

I should be getting a SuperGrafx + CD-ROM adapter soon, as well as a Sinclair ZX-Spectrum (it's been over a decade since anybody in my family owned one, in fact I daresay it was traded off for that awful TI-99 before I was born).

[mrhaboobi]

Id have to quote quite a few of the systems Sly has and....

Net Yaroze ( Usa, Jap and Pal machines)
Blue Debug PSX (Boxed New + a few loose systems)
Green Debug PSX (Boxed New)
10 Million Edition PSX ( Boxed )

Super Grafx
PcEngine,CoreGrafx,Coregrafx2,Duo,Turbo Duo.
2 Boxed New Famicom Twin Systems
Neo Geo AES and CD

[BIGMIKE]

boxed Rally IV system

[Bender_rules]

Magnavox Odyssey
Bally Astrocade
Fairchild

[Sylentwulf]

I would guess the Columbia house Atari 2600, Turboduo, Jag CD, Channel F, or intellivision telegames system for me.

[dlads]
