And Action 52 is like a $1000 game and that's not exactly a desirable game to play either. Strange. Maybe I'll hafta pick it up then, it could rise in value. I don't particularly care about having all my NES games boxed either.

    It just confuses me that shitstorms like Action 52 and Cheetahmen sell for hundreds and hundreds of dollars, yet Color A Dinosaur is less then $100.
    I also love the unusual nes titles, I know what you were getting at I just had to mention that those titles are nothing special.
    Color a Dinosaur could rise in value, and if it only sells for about 50$ now I wouldnt be surprised if it did go up (eventually).
    There are other really rare nes titles that are not super expensive yet. Chip and Dale 2 is one of the rarest US liscenced NES games and it seems to sell less than snow bros and about the same amount as duck tales 2. Race America is also really rare and thats less than 50$ via bin on ebay.

    Yes I think that has alot to do with it. Whenever he reviews something for good or bad, the sheep flock to ebay and pay whatever... then games sell for high BIN prices then those prices become the norm. When he reviewed guardian legend that common nes game went from 4-5 to 20-30 overnight. Demons Crest and Wild Guns shot up the same way, but even more.

    Action 52 and cheethamen are both quite rare, cheetha being much more so. With a retail price of 199$ I dont think many people bought action 52.
