rare PS2 games worth money later down the road

[Bronty-2]

gradius 5- sorry but this is a pet peeve. I don't understand why people use rarity and value interchangeably. Rarity is what it is. Price increases over time. Rarity doesn't.

This is the thing that always had me thinking.
Let's say that a game has X number of games printed, then over the years games get destroyed for whatever reason, thrown out, made into art projects, etc. Thus diminishing the number of copies of a game in existance.
These numbers are incalculable, but they increase a games rarity.

Back on topic: along with Disgaea, I nominate any other Nippon Ichi-made game for PS2 games that will hold their value well (La Pucelle, Atelier Iris, Phantom Brave, etc.)

# of games actually destroyed would be pretty small IMO. I doubt the attrition rate is 10% on modern systems. It's not a substantial #. People pay good money for games, they aren't going to throw them away for no reason.

Manuals and boxes might be thrown out... but not the games themselves.
