While on my weekly search for more Nintendo stuff (mostly NES) I often come across playstation games. They are usually very cheap at ~£2 each but I never know which ones to get. Has anyone got a list of PAL rarity's? or can list a few for me to look out for?. So far I know to look out for Panzer Front (got for £1 :), Bust a Grooze and Fifa 2004 but that's about it.

TIA.

"Bubble Bobble also featuring Rainbow Islands" goes for £20/25+ on ebay.co.uk regularly

Devil Dice, Kula World, Kurushi, Rapid Reload and X-Com UFO Enemy Unknown (me want!) spring to mind. Some RPG's are worth a premium now.

Early releases (<00100) in good condition are getting scarcer by the day so they're always a good to get, too.

I second that - Suikoden I & II and Vandal Hearts are getting expensive. So are both the "Everybody's Golf" titles. I'm gutted as I had all these and sold them with the PS ages ago, and can't get them back now!

I didn't think FIFA 2004 was anything special though - Amazon are still knocking them out at £14.99 (albeit within 1-2 weeks)

Sonic Wings Special- its a budget release by phoenix. Ive got no idea if its rare of not, but its a PAL only budget release late in the playstations life, so theres a chance it will be at least uncommon.

There are a *ton* of PAL only late release budget titles - even more than we have here in NTSC-U.

Castlevania SOTN is quite expensive, especially the limited edition (value is similar to DBGT:FB here). Kula World, Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain, the Suikodens (the first is actually scarcer than the second in PAL), Vandal Hearts, XCOM UFO are all quite expensive.

As for *rare* PAL titles, I think it's still a bit early to tell. Looking at the prices some US/JAP only RPG releases get in the UK, I'm thinking I should grab a lot of Lunars and ship them over :-).

Super Puzzle Fighter is another one that makes decent money, though I'm not sure if it's genuinelt rare or just in demand. I got around £25-30 for mine last year.

Hebereke's Popoitto, Penny Racers and Buttsubushi (late release, only in Germany as far as i know) are all pretty rare, although they don't seem to go for much on ebay.
