Wisdom Tree games

[kainemaxwell]

How often, if at all, have you found a Wisdom tree NES title in the wild?

[Scoots]

I see them at GameStop fairly frequently.

[Oobgarm]

I've seen them rather often around here, actually. Almost every Gamestop/Funco I go into has at least one. Usually Spiritual Warfare or Bible Adventures.

[kainemaxwell]

I found Bible Adventures yesterday at Funco. Surprised me really. Didn't know they show up kinda often though.

[den68]

I see them at Gamestop and EB a lot. in the wild??? I did get my copies of Spiritual Warfare and Bible Adventures from a thrift. these also had the manuals and cart sleeves that you'll almost never get at Gamestop or EB.

[MarioAllStar2600]

Never. I have never seen one in my life believe it or not. Weird thing is though I keep seeing mint condition Gyromites at my Gamestop.

[JWKobayashi]

I found a complete Bible Adventures at Game Crazy a couple months back.

[seizure bot 1011]

[VinnyT]

My Funco always has Wisdom tree games for Gameboy.

My friend once found Joshua for Genesis outside in the snow, and then gave it to me.

[oesiii]

I always thought they aren't as rare as some people think, I've picked up Joshua and Bible Adventures at Goodwill before and I've seen those and others at fleas, thrifts, and Gamestops pretty frequently.

[RetroYoungen]

At Funco, at Good Will, at fleas... I've seen so many (well, the same titles over and over, Joshua, Exodus, and Bible Adventures) that they're really just pissing me off at this point. Those games suck so bad...

[captain nintendo]

I see those games in the wild quite often.

Wisdom tree evidently has loads of old/new stock for sale. Check their website http://www.christianlink.com/media/wisdom/

I didn't call to confirm that all these games are still in stock, but they would have had to make a minimum amount of carts, and I wouldn't be surprised to hear they didn't sell so well.

Sunday Funday new for $25!

Noahs Ark 3-D new for $50!

Hurry before they are all gone...

O_O

[tynstar]

I see Bible Adventure all the time. The black and the blue versions of the cart. Spiritual Warfare I have only seen a couple time. I just picked up a loose copy of Joshua. So if any one has the box and manual for sale/trade let me know.

That site is funny every time I visit.

I remember hearing that Bible Adventures (I think it was BA...) sold something like 300,000 copies. I would think it didn't sell well also, but that sounds like a pretty successful sale for an illegal stealing-Nintendo's-revenue-and-living-to-tell-about-it-because-they-sell-BIBLE-games game. Isn't that insane?

[kainemaxwell]

Wow, this topic's gottne intresting. So Wisdom Tree games, as rare as they are, show up more often at gamestops then most ofther unlicenced rarities?

[nesman85]

i've only seen a few wisdom tree games in the wild and the prices on them were always way too high. :o

[Dr. Morbis]

I see Bible Adventures and King of Kings everywhere up here. If there are a group of 20 or more games gathered together, one of these two games will be among them. However, I have never seen any of the other 5 in the wild.

Slightly off topic: Spiritual Warfare is a GREAT game. If you liked Zelda 1, try this sucker out. If you want a challenge, try beating it without dying once. There are two bosses that are particularly tough to beat, even with practice. Also, the sword you get in this game just may be the most powerful video game weapon of all time (relative to the other weapons and enemies present).

[kainemaxwell]

How is Bible Adventures to actually play?

[Scoots]

The Noah's Ark section of Bible Adventures isn't terrible... It's simplistic as hell, but kinda fun too.

I think I've seen all the WT games in the wild except Sunday Funday and Bible Buffet. Still need those two... I also tend to find more than one of them at a time if I see them at all.

[Classicgamesdepot]

Bible Adventures and warfare are deifnitly the two most common with joshuah and King of Kings a close second. I found Buffet and sunday funday once in the wild on seperate occasions, those titles are worth picking up new because the quiz books and such are very hard to find, I think it's a good investment to pick up those last 2 titles new from Wisdom Tree, or cheaper on e-bay (as I did)

As far as genesis goes, the Wisdom Tree games are pretty rare for the Genesis, I'm probably going to order Joshua from them because I can't seem to find the Box and instructions for that title everywhere, I found all the others at a descent price complete or sealed

[RetroYoungen]

Wait, Bible Adventures and Spiritual Warfare are definately more common than the others? Because I've seen so many Exodus carts here (Northern Cali) over the past few years, for a while it seemed they were the only ones that made it here!

I rarely see Joshua carts, and I've NEVER seen Spiritual Warfare (NES or Genny) or a Sunday Funday. But to me, the only one even somewhat worth playing is Exodus. It's just Crystal Mines II with Moses instead of the burrowing robot, and he throws "w"s at everyone to beat them. Still kinda dumb, and I hated the bible quiz thing, but not that bad a game.

[kainemaxwell]

Either way I'm happy I found this and it's a different rarity to add to my own collection, sure not as rare as I thought it to be but still a good find to me anyway.

[DigitalSpace]

I've seen Exodus about three or four times in the wild. Picked one up for a friend recently. I've seen Joshua once. Nothing else yet.

For other systems, I've seen Joshua for Game Boy twice, and just bought Joshua for Genesis.

The only other Wisdom Tree games I would buy if I found them would be Spiritual Warfare for the Genesis and Super 3D Noah's Ark for SNES.

[Daria]

I think the reason GameStop usually has a few is that literally no one buys them... well except us. So even though they're "rare" they tend to pile up after awhile.

That said I kinda liked Joshua... >.>

I haven't gotten a chance to play it yet... but if I don't like it, at 63 cents it won't be a total loss. It's also my first rare Genesis title.

Wisdom Tree carts only seem to be for collectors these days... or the morbidly curious.

[Doonzmore]

I bought a complete copy of Bionic Commando from Game Hits the other day for 7.95 and talespin with the box at EB games for 7.99.

[DigitalSpace]

@Doonzmore - Did you mean to post that in the weekend finds thread? I don't think those were Wisdom Tree games...
