Can we add the newly found Colecovision Fireman Prototype to the database now?

And can we finally get Gamma Attack listed for the Atari 2600 in the US games section?

somethign i got awhile ago and noticed it's a 6 but only worth $20 in the guide


Bronkie the Bronchiasaurus for SNES


from what I know it was a very rare game that had a limited release. Taught kids that smoking was bad etc. The ones i've seen on ebay go for about $50+ loose, never seen a complete one.

Hi guys. First time posting in this forum. I notice our online price guide does not have an entry for an Atari 2600 game made by Panda called "Space Canyon". AA has its rarity at a 6 (http://www.atariage.com/software_page.html?SoftwareLabelID=454) according to their scale. All the released Panda games on DP are listed as R7. The truth is somewhere in between I guess. I got incredibly lucky today and scored one of these off CL, and I think I'll record it as R7 until I hear otherwise.

No way in hell is Up N' Down or Super Zaxxon for the C64 a 4; they've gotta be a 6-7 at least. I've been collecting C64 for as long as the computer has been released, and I've seen *ONE* Up N' Down cart the entire time I've been collecting, (the one I own) and never seen a Super Zaxxon.

I just want to reopen for discussion the ranking for these items.

I noticed the Japanese game ZXE-D: Legend of Plasmalite for PlayStation is missing from the list. I'm not sure of the rarity as I haven't ever checked Japanese auctions, but I do know it took me over six months to find a single listing for the complete game via eBay (it comes with four model robots that can hook up to the game via the memory card slot). I found one thread that claims that less than 10,000 copies were produced, though I can't verify that number. The game alone is on eBay right now, but the value would be in the complete set. It's at least a rarity of 6, I'd wager, and possibly as much as an 8.

I'm sure everyone around here knows of Magical Chase (I did a google search for it with this site targeted and got hundreds of results), but, uh, why the price of $275 for a complete copy? That's low for even just the Hucard.

I don't think ZXE-D is terribly rare or valuable. All the major importers took orders for it here in the States and I have seen it pretty regularly on Yahoo.JP auctions for about what it sold for new. Using Ebay as your only rarity guide for Japanese stuff is foolish.

As for Magical Chase, I have to agree with you. Complete copies are regularly going for double that amount and sometimes 3-4 times that much.

crux
10-16-2009, 03:58 PM
I figured there was the possibility of ZXE-D being more common than it seemed, as I've yet to figure out how to find things reliably on Yahoo Japan (it took me ages to find Minimoni Tambourine for PS, despite the fact that it was being sold on Amazon Japan), although it's an early PlayStation release and a niche release at that (four configurable model robots). I can't imagine a title like that would be terribly common (sometimes a reasonable price for a seemingly rare title is just an indication of low demand, like some of the SuperGrafx games), but again I haven't verified it myself.

I'm also new around here, so what do I know? :)

Hey,
i also think that either the SNES COmp. carts should be raised to R10 (how many actually exist??) or the NWC lowered to R9, i have the feeling those should be in the same category, but maybe i haven't got a clue about US rarity.

Thanks.

Hi! How much does a Space Channel 5 Part 2 PS2 PAL game cost?

Hi Joe and everyone,

I go to Tokyo at least once a year and have noticed recently that the Japanese Virtual Boy prices and rarities are off in a variety of ways. Since the DP Guide is my go-to resource for this stuff, I'd like to help fix this up.

Japanese Virtual Boy games fall into roughly three categories.

Common: These sell for anywhere from $10 to maybe $25. Many stores still have brand new copies of them just sitting around! Galactic Pinball, Mario Clash, Jack Bros., Mario's Tennis, Red Alarm, T&E Virtual Golf, Teleroboxer, Tobidase! Panibon, V-Tetris, Vertical Force, Virtual Fishing, and Virtual Pro Yakyu. Of these, Mario Clash and Jack Bros. are the least common, but again -- brand new stock, still available, roughly $20 each.

Uncommon: These are slightly harder to find, but they're still readily available in a few specialty stores for between $40-80. Again -- you can sometimes still find new ones. Insmouse no Yakata, Space Squash, and Wario Land. Of these, Wario Land is hardest to find, believe it or not.

Incredibly Rare: These are the only games that cost over $100, and most of them cost even more than that. It's possible to find them, of course (it's possible to find anything there any day of the week) but they are some of the most expensive games in the country. SD Gundam Generation War, Space Invaders Collection, Virtual Bowling, Virtual Lab. Of these, Space Invaders Collection is the cheapest at around $200; the rest will run you $400-plus.

Import games are a bit tricky because of course they're a little harder to acquire outside Japan, and I know the DP Guide tends to take that into account. If we were living in Japan, I'd bump the common ones down a few points, but here are the ratings I'd recommend.

Virtual Golf, V-Tetris, Virtual Yakyu: 3
Galactic Pinball, Red Alarm, Mario's Tennis, Vertical Force, Panibon, Teleroboxer: 4
Virtual Fishing, Mario Clash, Jack Bros.: 5
Insmouse, Space Squash: 6
Wario Land: 7
Space Invaders Collection: 8
Virtual Bowling, Virtual Lab, SD Gundam: 9

Let me know if you have any questions; I hope this helps!

Hi! How much does a Space Channel 5 Part 2 PS2 PAL game cost?

I'd also like to know about this game. I have a PAL, UK release of Space Channel 5 Part 2 (distinct from the European edition due to having different ratings labels - the UK version doesn't have USK). This seems to be one of a very small batch of released copies; all sources (including the rarity guide) indicate that it was never released in the UK, but the existance of the copy in my possession - and the few being sold on Amazon Marketplace - would appear to refute this. Most likely it was released and then recalled very quickly.

I can take photos of my copy if you'd like proof (or are just curious) - it's complete with manual.

There's a few mistakes with the guide so I thought I'd post them here.

Metroid for the NES;
The problem is with the description. It says no sequel appeared until the Super NES release of Super Metroid, but there was a sequel for the Game Boy that came out before Super Metroid.

http://www.digitpress.com/DP/cmf/game.cmf?gameid=5892


Impossimole for the Turbografx-16;
The title of this game is misspelled. It should be "Impossamole".

http://www.digitpress.com/DP/cmf/game.cmf?gameid=8258


Sora Kiba: Operation Code Vapor Trail for the Genesis/Mega Drive;
The first part of the title has been mistranslated from Japanese, the title should be "Ku-u-ga: Operation Code Vapor Trail" as that's what's actually on the front of the cover(though very small in print). Maybe some members here who know Japanese well can confirm this. I'm not sure if it should be Ku-u-ga or Kuuga as both ways seem to be common spellings.

Here's a cover scan so you can see for yourself.

I think Sparkster for the SNES is rarer than R3 I've never seen more than one. Maybe it's just rare in Canada? In either case the price for loose is $30ish not $6 on eBay if you can even find them there.

I haven't had a chance to go through every single game title by title, but I've seen many SNES and N64 ones that are quite questionable.

Can someone answer this, was "1" just used by default whenever a game's rarity was not known? Because there are a ton of 1s in the SNES database that could range from anywhere to 3 to 7 depending on the title. I find it hard to believe someone would really call those 1s, rather they probably just didn't research them?

Edit AHA - I now realize that does rarity across all platforms, not within a platform. I don't necessarily agree with this but it is what it is and as long as you are aware of it then no big deal.

For example, a Clayfighter Sculptor's Cut manual on N64 is a clear R10 within N64, by far the hardest item to obtain in the set. However, when you compare it across platforms like to an SE box, it is not nearly as rare. I'd still categorize it as an R7 or R8 at least even across everything...

I don't know... A quick check of "Completed Auctions" on eBay shows a bunch that actually sold going for $2-8. I think some of the later, rarer releases are certainly worth more than $1. Though to be fair, we're talking NIB, not cart-only, when looking at these auctions.

You may be right but on the other hand if you're a buyer looking for Game.com games there really aren't all that many $1 games being sold. I just did a quick search on eBay and I didn't see one Game.com game listed under $2.99. I know that asking price doesn't equal value but It's hard to argue that something's only worth a dollar if you can't purchase it for that price somewhat regularly.

Does anyone update the lists from here?

http://www.digitpress.com/lists/

Those lists are hellishly useful, but the rarities seem far off. Also, the link to 'forum thread' on that page is broken.

I've been collecting N64 pretty intensely for the past few months, and I can mention a few I'd like to see changed.

For example - Conker's Bad Fur Day - Currently at R1 - would boost to at least R5.

Elmo's Letter & Number adventure are at R5, and I see them quite often - I'd say R3.

Beetle Adventure Racing is one of the most common games I come across, has to be an R1 (not an R3!). Likewise for Excitebike 64.

The Collectors Edition of LoZ:OoT is not a R1, it is at least an R4. Same for Majora's Mask - which doesn't have separate entries on that list.

The following games could use a boost in rarity by one level - 007: World is not enough, Clayfighter's Sculptor's Cut, Harvest Moon, and SW: Battle for Naboo.

Anyway, sorry for all that babbling.

I'm not sure where else to post this and didn't want to make a separate topic. There's a spelling mistake with one of the games.

http://guide.digitpress.com:8080/DP/cmf/game.cmf?gameid=11748

Goemon is spelled "Goeman". I couldn't find the listing when searching for Goemon, only when I searched for Great Adventure did it turn up.

Edit: The same mistake occurs with a few other entries.

There are other entries for Goeman too when I searched for that name, I can't think they're right either.

If you're interested in N64 variants, WWF No Mercy v1.1 US is one to look into. The cart front label's product code says "NUS-NW4E-USA-1". (pic (http://media.photobucket.com/image/recent/theclaw/special/wwfnomercy.jpg))

Can you please reassess the rarity rating of ESPN NBA Hang Time '95 for the Sega CD? It has a rating of 5, but since July 2010 there have been only 18 sales noted by pricecharting, that's almost 6 copies per year. That is an absurdly low amount of games in circulation. The two most recent CIB auctions were January 9 and May 22, they were sold for $105 and $90 respectively.

I consider myself extremely lucky to have found this in a game store for $5 years back, knowing that it was at the least a rare game. Now I'm starting to think it may very well be one of the 3 rarest games on the console, if not the rarest. It's a sports game that used to be worth $1. I guess news came through to collectors, especially to Sega CD completionists, that this game is INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT to find, MUCH, MUCH moreso than Keio Flying Squadron and even Radical Rex. I've also seen that complete copies of the game fail to list something I have. It looks like those that own truly complete copies of the game also have a 15"x20" poster of the game's cover.

At present, no Sega CD U.S. release has a rarity rating higher than 6. Frankly, I think this game deserves an upgrade from R5 to at least an R8, because I think it surpasses the criteria for R7 by a wide margin.

I'd also increase the price as such, since $60 is the current guide price for complete copies, but recent sales would put the game in the $95-$100 category.

Also, S.C.A.T. for the NES has recently had a dramatic increase in value from $5. Loose copies average sales of $65 now. Don't ask me why. I have no idea why a game I bought for $7 6 years ago went up in value exponentially. It's what happened to NBA Hangtime, except this game doesn't have a rarity excuse. Gargoyle's Quest II is up from $10 to $45. You actually might want to do a sweep of all NES games, because a lot of games in my collection went from being worth nothing in 2010 to a ton of cash now.

Thanks for your great site. I've been to NAVA once so far (hard to go when I'm stuck in Memphis), and hope to come again with my friends soon. I think your comprehensive classic guide is about to see major price boosts in the NES section, and it doesn't look like these prices are going to go back down. CD-based media might, but the NES games are starting to get white hot. Games like Power Blade 2 that were $10 a few years ago are $225 now. It's beyond crazy. I should've kept building my collection in 2006 when I had the chance. Also shouldn't have sold my boxed Dragon Warrior III & IV (I originally bought them for $20 each sometime a few years ago. Even the store clerk thought his boss was an idiot for having those games that low. I also could've got 1&2 CIB but was broke enough). Boneheaded move of the century.

Anyway, that was one of my patented wild rambling tangents. Thanks again.

I'm not sure if anyone reads these anymore, but I'll agree with you Hangtime 95 is an extremely rare game. But part of it could be because people just expect it to be another cheap crappy sports game and pass over it when out in the wild.

When I skimmed through my Sega CD collection's pricing on pricecharting, I completely skipped my sports games. I barely noticed it after I was done looking at my other games from the console. When I caught a glimpse of Hang Time, I said, "There's no way that can be right. I know it's rare, but it can't be THAT rare." And sure enough, it's insanely pricey now. The chart shows one listing that went for 99¢ around 2008. I may have been the person that won that auction 5+ years ago. I recall there being an auction for a rare game I bid on and was surprised nobody else outbid me, and this may have been it. I don't recall where I bought it, but it was cheap and I knew the game was rare and worth at least $15 at the time, and I was also set on getting a complete Sega CD collection so I picked it up. (I eventually gave up that endeavor and instead decided to only get the good games like the Lunar series and Popful Mail, the latter of which I'm trying to retrieve by trading Lunar: EB or said copy of NBA Hangtime even though the game's true value may be $600+)


AVGN's bud Mike Matei reviewed S.C.A.T. (or I think he actually had a PAL copy, Action in New York).
That's what happened to S.C.A.T. and Gun-Nac for NES and Run Saber for SNES.

It's amazing to think a review can increase a game's value, but pricecharting does show a sharp increase on S.C.A.T. and Gun-Nac around the release of the video. I noticed that one common game that usually sells for $2 spiked to $15 for a week or so after the video. There are some games he excluded on the list that I'm still trying to collect, so hopefully Matei or AVGN leave those games out until they're in my collection. Makes me wonder if Journey to Silius will be the next game to rise in value dramatically. It's an R2, but it's a damn good game. There's an R4+ game I need that I'm going to go ahead and spend the $30 on now before its value increases. Hopefully I can snag it at a bargain of $22 or less, but frankly the game is worth it. I'd mention what it is, but I don't want competitors.

There are a lot of uncommon games he could've listed that would be worth a lot of money today. Take, for instance, the gold unlicensed cart Micro Machines. It's my favorite NES game of all-time, but the R4 game can be had for less than $20. I have an unopened R7 Micro Machines Aladdin Cart but it's only worth $15 because nobody would want it except for those that own the lame (yet rare) Aladdin Deck Enhancer or Micro Machines video game fans like myself. However, other games like Power Blade 1 & 2 have started to get on peoples' radars and now both have gone up in value exponentially. With the next generation of consoles looking to kill used games, I think this is going to be a period of years where good NES games R3 and up start to get really expensive. I had to spend $15.50 on an average Mega Man clone, The Krion Conquest. As late as December 2009 I could've gotten it for under $5. Change is coming to classic video game prices, especially to NES games.

It's funny, had Matei mentioned another Natsume game instead of S.C.A.T. like Shadow of the Ninja, it's likely that the shooter would still be worth about $10 and the Ninja Gaiden-type game with awesome co-op gameplay would've gone up to $80 or more from $15. I've only gotten to 2-1 on SotN, but I know for a fact that it's a hidden gem as well as Shatterhand, both just R3 games, but S.C.A.T. was an R3 game as well, so no even remotely uncommon game is safe anymore from massive price jacks thanks to the power of the internet.

SCAT was always a relatively difficult game to find, even before anyone cared about it. It is probably rarer than a 3. Another game that is much rarer than it is listed at is World Soccer '94: Road to Glory for the SNES. This game is listed as a 1, but I'd say it is a 6 or 7. I've only ever seen the game once in many years of collecting.

Only 20 listings sold since January 2011. I can't say I'm too amazed at the low value, but it definitely seems like an R7.

On a similar note, Championship Soccer '94 Sega CD is listed at $90. I do still think the rarity rating is correct, but the demand has gone down significantly. Average complete copies go for about $30. They got as high as $182 in March 2011.

There's not many eBay listings for the game so it might warrant being promoted to R7 (again, no Sega CD game has a rating higher than R6) with listings being scarce, but I still think Hang Time 95 is an R8+.

*edit* The entire NES library definitely needs a reassessment at least price-wise, as regular games have gone up 5x-15x in value since 2010 and expensive games have gotten even more expensive. Bonk's Adventure for NES is up from $85 to $270. There's just way too many NES games that need price hikes to note. Hopefully when the prices level out after this huge rollercoaster ride that's gone in only one direction, UP, puts on the brakes so an updated Classic print guide can be released to the public.

Well a copy of Hangtime 95 sold for about $90 recently (http://www.ebay.com/itm/300908770649) so there's your line to start from. I really don't think it's a $600 game though. Championship Soccer 94 is also very rare, I just think people saw the price spike and then decided they'd be happy to offload their copies of a soccer game for big bucks rather than sit on it.

Same thing kind of happened with Pitfall 32X, no copies had been for sale for like a year or so and then one came up and ended at about $250 I think. Everyone tried to sell their copy at the same time to get the big bucks and the price has been gradually decreasing.

I hope you already bought Keio though, that game is just stupid pricey at this point.

Sadly Keio evaded me until the very end. I know of Hangtime's value currently, but I think it has the potential to be worth $600 by 2015. I'm currently trying to barter it or Lunar: Eternal Blue for Popful Mail.

Wolfenstein 3D For Jaguar and SNES are both listed as 1, but I would put the SNES version as a 3 and the jaguar as a 4 or 5. Neither one of these games should be 1 as they are not really ultra common.

I wonder if the digipress rarity online guide is updated, isn't it?

On the "Value in USD" section on the database, it seems that it tops out at $127. I've looked at some rare games (Air Raid, NWC) and they are listed as being worth $127. I know for a fact that NWC and Air Raid, along with many other games, are worth way over $127. It used to top out at $999. Why have a max at all?

Alright, ever since the new Godzilla movie released this year, there have been a Noticable rise in demand for select Godzilla games (mainly on Xbox). Iv seen them
sell for around 30 dollarsc (Surprising since they used to sell for 10 bucks). Maybe even 20 dollars for a loose disc (Though I doubt this). A Re-Spark in Nostalgia factor for many a fan of Old School Godzilla is the probable Culprit behind the rise in Demand. And because a Godzilla sequel is planned in the next 2 years. There is a good Reason to start Investing in the Godzilla games for SNES and Xbox while they are affordable. Make no Mistake. These games ARE NOT RARE but There is a Demand coming. So I hope you update the list. For the Record I used Pricecharting.com for my research.

I also don't know if I'd say Stack Up cartridges are "quite common"

Even less common since resellers started harvesting them for Famicom converters. :(
