Rare N64 games ?

[imanerd0011]

I'm thinking about collectiong for N64 (does anyone else here do that?) , and I'm wondering if there are any known rare games for the system ? I want to collect for it , because it looks like a complete U.S. collection would be rather easy to get and wouldn't cost a ton. Also , exactly how many games are there for it.

Yup, go to the online Rarity Guide, click on "N64" and leave all other fields blank. Click Submit (or Enter or whatever) and a list of all N64 games - including rarity values - will pop up. And, lest you get whiny as to the size, it's only 4 pages long - easy to sort through for the rarer titles.

And if you ask for one of us to make a list for you, we'll give you a wedgie. The work's been done for you. You just gotta take 3 minutes and look at some lists yourself.

There are no extremely rare N64 games. At least not at this point. The rarest are probably the rental-exclusive titles, but since there is next to no demand for them, you won't have to pay much. It'll be a lot harder to get a complete copy for those, though.

Harvest Moon 64 is easy the most valuable game, but its price seem to be (temporarily?) dropping a little. It still won't put a huge hole in your pocket like a Stadium Events or Panzer Dragoon Saga would.

As for the total number of games, isn't it around 350? I always find out and procede to completely forget. :/

I'm starting to give the N64 a little more attention myself and my biggest obstacle has been finding certain games that are complete.

This is one platform that is still very affordable to start collecting for.

In my area N64 games are more expensive overall than dreamcast and psone.

Aussie2B , thank you for your reply. I wasn't asking for a list, because I already checked the online rarity guide, I was just wondering what other collectors had to say about rare N64 games and collecting N64 (because it seems like nobody does it).

did harvest moon not get uk release?

[ubersaurus]

Ogre Battle 64 seems like its worth some good cash too, for that matter.

Somewhere closer to 250... I forget too.

Clayfighter Sculpter's Cut is generally accepted to be the rarest of the N64 games, though not the most valuable.

Star Craft 64 kinda bounces back and forth in price range

Harvest Moon

Clay Fighter Sculpter's Cut (I've seen this at $60-70 lately)

Ogre Battler 64

Spider-Man (On a good day I can get it for $15, but it's not that rare yet)

Scooby Doo: Classic Creepy Capers <-- this last release title is getting harder to find, but here's a hint, it's in a black cartridge

Dr. Mario 64 (Can't stress that enough)

Monopoly I've always had trouble finding at a good price

Bomberman The 2nd Attack (I noticed an incease in price on this one)

Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine <-- been a while since I've seen this

Goemon's Great Adventure (I think this is part 2 of the Mystical Ninja games on 64, but I have seen an increase on price as well)

Fighter's Destiny 2 <--- havent seen this in a while

Killer Instinct Gold (Big demand for this, sitting at $24.99 and up)

CastleVania: Legacy of Darkness (Of course, it's Special Edition!)


and that's all the titles I have heard off and on that many have claimed that are "rare"

Not much really, unless it's sealed. You might get $20 for a loose one if you're lucky. Prices are down. It's still a cool find.

[Aussie2B]

Dr. Mario 64 (Can't stress that enough)

What do you mean by that? o_O

Is the Sculptor's Cut really getting that expensive? Is that for a complete copy? I noticed a copy with cart and box sold for about $20 on eBay not that long ago.

Dr. Mario 64 has gone from $30-35 lately

Sculptor (loose or in the box) has been insane lately

Same here most I find are in the 15-20$ range.

[Aussie2B]

Well, I'm glad I was able to pick up a copy of Dr. Mario 64 with the box for $10 this past summer. :) For that matter, I'm glad I loaded up on a lot of N64 games over the summer. I'm kind of kicking myself for leaving Dr. Mario at my mom's house, though; I get cravings to play it now and then... Definitely a very nice remake. :)

Earlier this year most N64 stuff around here was in the $15-20 range, but now I see a lot of stuff priced at $10 and under.

The priciest stuff (not to be confused with rarity) will be the Mario titles (Mario Party 1-3, Mario Tennis, Golf, etc). On average I see those go for anywhere between $15-20 in the wild. Another pricey one is Paper Mario. I paid $20 for a loose cart and if you can get one for that much or less, you got a nice deal. And of course, there's Harvest Moon 64. I paid $15 for a loose cart last month, but I don't know if I was just lucky or what.

Complete/boxed games aren't too hard to find, but go at it now.

I've heard that Stunt Racer 64 is another R5 title to watch out for. It was a rental exclusive as well. Gamecrazy is the best place to find this, but only because hardly anybody would pay the $29.99 they charge for it.

Oh, and that's another thing - if you want cheap N64 stuff, Gamecrazy is not the place. It's likely you'll find it cheaper elsewhere.

Good luck!

I don't know that they are exactly the rarest - but Paper Mario and Mario party 3 have going for a lot lately.

[Mayhem]

did harvest moon not get uk release?

I believe it did, but would have to check. Paper Mario was a VERY late release in Europe and now it's worth $50+ complete for PAL version.

Speaking of Harvest Moon 64, what would a sealed US copy be worth? Got one you see, but haven't opened it to play it! Wondering if I should leave it sealed here heh...
