[edit] I totally forgot. This is mine!
Whoa. I had the Donkey Kong Jr. game and watch back in the day. Sold it/gave it way/threw it away probably 25 years ago. Anyway, its on the 3DS virtual console now and I almost cried from nostalgia when I loaded it up. I must have been 7 or 8 years old when I last played it. Damn youngn's today, don't even remember a time when Mario was occasionally a villian.
As far as rare games, the only one I've got even somewhat rare is Metroid Prime Trilogy, and I had no idea until this thread. I do have a bunch of 2600 cartridges back at my folk's house, but I really doubt those are "rare", damn console was just too popular.
Goddamn kids don't know how lucky they have it.
NASCAR Racing 2003 Season.
One of the biggest racing simulator gems of the earlier generation and still one of the most realistic sim created:
Still fetches for a large price

I do, brother. I do. Me and a buddy used to make mazes when we were 10 or 11 based on games. Check it out:
I used to have copies of Crazy Climber and Quadrun. You could only get them through the Atari Club. I used to have the entire run of Atari Age. I was foolish enough to let these things get away from me at some point in the past. Big regrets. Quadrun is worth a shitload now.
I think this is partly why I hold on to ALL games now. Once bitten, twice shy.
Are rare press kits cool, or are they... um... attempted bribery? Probably not a topic for this thread. Still, awesome things to have.

It being Zelda related makes it worth a bit more than your standard GBA SP. Also, it gets easily confused with the far more limited version [seen earlier in this thread actually] which was limited to 300 units and not for sale (Club Nintendo was one way to get it, competitions another). Difference is that has a bigger box, a numbered certificate and I think a T-Shirt.
never selling it even if it was rare (don't think it is)
And I Streetpassed his Mii, too.
Metal Slug X on the Neo Geo (Worth $800 bought it for $200)
Panzer Dragoon Saga
Earthbound
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night signed by Michiru Yamane
If autographed games count, then I definitely have to mention my Super Mario 64 cart and Mario & Luigi 3 cover art, both of which were signed by Charles Martinet.
And I Streetpassed his Mii, too.
It's the Mario 3D Land promotional event in Santiago, Chile.Is this the launch event in Brazil?
I didn't Streetpassed his Mii. =/
However, I think the rarest thing I own may be my Gameboy Advance SP special edition featuring Groudon with matching carrying case. These don't show up on Ebay often. There's a new one on there right now that someone is trying to get $799.00 for!
Metal Slug X is nowhere close to being worth $800 dollars. Sorry.
I was one of those 3000. Awesome game, such a sense of place in the world. It looked astounding at the time too.PANZER DRAGOON SAGA: This fantastic game was produced in the last days of Sega Saturn and in Europe around 3000 copies were distributed. In North America, around 10.000 copies were sold. The value of this game is around 150 EURO and that is the only game that needs to be owned in this list in our opinion
I had no idea it was so limited. I feel even worse now.
Just have to say how great this is. We would've definitely been best buds had we gone to the same school. Wish I still had stuff like this.
I got the English + Chinese version. Try to find one of those on ebay
Surprisingly to me it shows for 62 dollars here
Going to put it away, might be worth more one day ...
