I have one of the original Hologram-y copies of Majora's Mask. And a gold cart Ocarina of Time. Doubt those are really "rare", though.

No, there were at least 100,000 of them made...

My Bookman's (or is it just "Bookman's"? I'm not sure if it's only local) has one giant cabinet filled to the brim with N64 games., and roughly six copies of Paper Mario and Yoshi's Story.

I'm not actually sure if that doesn't mean they're rare though, as this is also a store that had two copies of Nocturne at one point (albeit in 'fair' condition).


He's in Italy, hence PAL copies. Paper Mario was a very late PAL release for the N64 and it does command a good price today (although not especially super rare).

Always remember, never confuse value with rarity, they don't always go hand in hand ;)

An oooold game, called "E.V.O" , for the SNES.

Also, The Doctor, I have 1 thing to say:

"HEEEELP MEEEE MARINAAAAAAAAA *ding*"

The only thing I truly remember from that game.

Hmmm....define rarity on this one....

I'll take a guess...and say Super Smash Bros. 1

If that's not rare, I've got none.

I wanna add a few more that I can think of off the top of my head. You know what, scratch that, this is just an updated list.

Legend of Zelda Wind Waker (got the 1st edition/Gamecube)
FFXII Collector's Edition(PS2)

(and I'm sure these NES games are rare now since I never hear about them anymore, but I could be wrong...)
SNK Baseball
2-in-1 Super Spike V'Ball/Nintendo World Cup
Back to the Future Part II & III
Batman
Jack Nicklaus' Major Championship Golf
Kirby's Adventure
Metroid
Mike-Tyson's Punch-Out!
Monopoly
Startropics
Startropics II: Zoda's Revenge
Super Mario Bros./ Duck Hunt
Super Mario Bros. 2
Super Mario Bros. 3
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Arcade Game
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III: The Manhattan Project
Tetris
Tetris 2
Top Gun
Town & Country Surf Designs: Wood & Water Rage
Wheel of Fortune
Yoshi's Cookie

Again, I'm sure some of these are rare, but don't know if all of them are even though they're old..... and I'm sure there are many titles I'm still missing. All the games mentioned too, I own the original boxes they came in, plus the original instruction guide.

Well, not necessarily. I was going to use two games I own (Pizza Tycoon and Unnatural Selection) as examples but they still fetch decent prices as it turns out so never mind.

But not necessarily.

These kick all kinds of arse.

Doshin is the Love Giant. With his good actions, people show him their love, and he increases in size (only for that day, by the next day, he is back to normal size).

Depends... I could rattle off a whole list of games that are not rare but sell for high amounts (due to demand, see many Square RPGs for SNES) and games that are rare that don't sell for much (see many hard to find PS1 titles that people don't know about).

@Chikikyo - I've got all nine software titles for the 64DD and the keyboard here. Prices on them defo have gone up in the last year or two, so good job I got most of it ages ago...

True enough... expensive games aren't necessarily rare. A lot of SNES cartridges are expensive where I'm from, in stores around me.

Lunar Silver Star Story Complete and Lunar Eternal Blue Complete for the Playstation are the most hard to find/SUPER RARE games to purchase over hundreds and hundreds of bills!


What the hell does that mean?

I just bought Lunar Eternal Blue Complete yesterday at Bookman's for forty five bucks. Still in its original packaging and wrapped.


Yeah, I was kind of wondering that. Also, whatever this Bookman's is, I want one to open up near me.

As for rare...I owned Persona 2 for awhile.

Ah, Mischief Makers, Mystical Ninja...an idiot ex-friend of mind had a lot of these old games. They rocked but I bet he sold them for drug money or something, eventually. =P

Um...I DID have a copy of Star Ocean: The Second Story for the PS1. Bought it from a small shop for £20, later brought it into a bigger shop, and the guy was all "WOW! I'll give you £60 for it!". I came back later and it was inside a glass case with all the obscure/old stuff.

I guess the only (possibly?) rare game I still own is Azure Dreams. Surprisingly addictive monster-raising, turn-based RPG - I got it as an ex-rental. I'm gonna miss that game when we get rid of our Playstation 2.

Why on Earth would you get rid of a PS2? I sold mine months ago, and despite having a DS, PSP and XBOX 360 I still think selling it was the largest mistake I've ever made, seriously, greatest system ever made if we don't include the PC.

Agreed, there's no reason to sell a PS2. Gotta upgrade mine now that I think about it.

I also own "The Bouncer", Squarenix should try to do something like this again.

Post subject:  Re: Rarest Game You Own
The Bouncer was the first game I got for my PS2, it was a decent brawler, but much too easy, and far too short. I finished it in 3 hours or so, and when I tried to replay it I got a DRE. :/

Money >>>> PS2

With lots of money you can buy even more PS2s and sell those for even more money. You do the math.

I want to go back in time and use my, what, 15 year old self as a punching bag?
Just.
Just.
........fuck.

Other than that, I have a decent collection of games that are, I suppose rare but not expensive. Aaand I'm judging "rare" by things that weren't commonly found being sold 2nd hand before the system went out, I suppose.
I'm planning on buying Suikoden I + II this spring though; that series is one of my favorites (and Suiko I one of my favorite RPGs period) and I'd live to own all of it excluding IV.

Also, not a rare game, but I own the Lunar I/Lunar II official artbook, which is absolutely gorgeous. It's a rare artbook for a game, so it's rather close enough.

My brother wants to sell it to get some money for his Xbox360...and I'm looking to get a Wii eventually. But really, even if we just got it out and dusted it off every once in a while, I think we should keep it. If just so I can keep playing Azure Dreams and We <3 Katamari. And Psychonauts. (Yes, I have a taste for obscure games)

If he tries to sell the thing I'll have to show him this thread. XD I know there's still a few games on there that he loves. This is the problem with sharing every console we've ever owned. (Apart from our bad luck with electronics...RIP Playstation 2 the 1st and one second-hand NES)

I replayed it around... maybe 3 times total, since I THINK there's at least 2 endings obtainable, but it's also been a while since I played it.

I loved that game. Duragon C. Mikado's final boss fight was great, and this also had different paths, depending on how certain things occur (the train, the "sneaking into the base", etc.). Great game... but yeah, was very, very short per game completion.

I'm not sure. I guess the rarest are:

1) The golden NES Zelda cartridge (not sure how rare that is, actually)

2) A limited edition of the first Jack and Dexter game where the CD cover is like those demo games.

3) Some of the other NES games I have (Kibuki: Quantum Fighter, that crash test dummy game, ninja gaiden 2, metroid, super mario 3, mega man 2 and mega man 4, little samson, bart vs the world, ninja turtle 1, battletoads. All I can remember for now.)

I'm not a collector, though. I just, you know, play the games.
