What is the Single RAREST Item In Your Collection?

[Crysonic]

Don't have much rare stuff, I only collect games I really like but it's probably a pretty minty Crisis Force CIB.

Very cool Saturn DJ. I don't have anything ridiculously hard to find, but I would say mine are:

Panzer Dragoon Saga (complete)
Earthbound (cart only)
Phantasy Star for SMS(complete)
Complete in box Virtual Boy

[synbiosfan]

Probably a sealed Daytona Netlink

Mmm... I would say Pocky and Rocky 2 for the SNES, a Sealed Kirby's Adventure/ Loose Romance of three kingdoms II / Chip n Dale/ a complete Alien Vs predator for Jaguar and International Superstar Soccer for SNES too.

I have a lot of SNES/NES Stuff, but I don't know how rare they are, because the rarity here goes very diferent from what I see here!

[Guyra]

Probably my sealed copy of Zelda's Adventure for the CD-i.

[Shai'tan]

a few pretties and a sealed Earthworm jim

[NavesRegge]

Either my CIB copy of Snatcher for Sega CD or my copy of Pier Solar: Reprint Edition. I have a feeling that there are a lot less Pier Solars than Snatchers in the world, so Pier Solar is probably my rarest.

[Parodius Duh!]

Legend of Almana and Doki Doki Panic pirate carts!!!!!

[BetaWolf47]

[weaponepsilon]

I was told my Championship Soccer 94 for Sega CD was extremely rare. I bought it many years ago at a garage sale for $1.

[Callin]

A Minish Cap NFR Demo cartridge.

I haven't been collecting too long, but there you go.

[Colorado Rockies]

My 2 rarest games are my CIB Bubble Bath Babes for the Nes and the other is probably my U.S. Rage of the Dragons for the NEO GEO AES. I think only like 200 U.S. versions were produced but I'm not sure.

[Badhornet]

Music Machine for the 2600. Not only my rarest, but probably the cheapest I paid for any single piece in my collection........ 25 cents at a flea market

[Carey85]

Want to double your investment on that Music Machine cart? :D

[WelcomeToTheNextLevel]

Probably Dig Dug for Intellivision (Rarity 7) or Plumbers Don't Wear Ties (supposedly Rarity 3, but probably much rarer)

[Nightowljrm]

Probably my Castlevania: Dracula X... Yeah, I know, not that rare.

[WelcomeToTheNextLevel]

Probably my Castlevania: Dracula X... Yeah, I know, not that rare.

Worth quite a bit... so pretty nice (: And we all take time to build up rare games...

[BobaFettHotep]

the rarest things in my collection are probly my turbografix 16 cd player or my Kisado pc engin to turbografix converter or my maxi 15 nes cart

[Rickstilwell1]

My new rarest item is Muncher for Bally Astrocade. R8 I believe, sure it's a tie with some RCA Studio II junk I have, but what is more desirebale is worth more. So I say Muncher.

[moocow111]

My rarest is probably a CIB SNES. I bought it back on the original release date and have kept it in my basement ever since. One of these days I might sell it.

[PSP509]

My Atari Jaguar Proto CD Set is the rarest,I guess.Supposedly,they're the only ones in existance,I'm told. :) They belonged to a former Atari Corp. employee. ;)

[BetaWolf47]

Just noticed that GameCube Action Replays are worth quite a bit. I have a CIB Action Replay Limited Edition w/ 64 MB Memory Card. There's a completed CIB listing on ebay that went for $215. So that's probably my most valuable.

Also, I hear that the PSX Analog controller (not Dualshock) is rare. I have one of those too.

[WesternNYCollector]

I used to have the Earthbound scratch and sniff pizza delivery guy hang-up thing that you got for sending in a questionnaire, I forget if it was in Nintendo Power or the back of the Players Guide that came with it.

I seem to have lost it sometime in the past 10 years though.

[Informationator]

Currently...

Pieces and The Miracle Piano Teaching System for SNES

[Sunnyvale]

KO Boxing for the SMS

Rarest I got.

[Casati]

According to NintendoAge, my rarest Nintendo item is the box for Bandit Kings of Ancient China. I had two CIB a couple years ago, and managed to find a bidder at auction for the extra on Ebay for about $25. They might be worth more now. I also have the box for Arkanoid. I don't know my rarest Playstation, Atari or Genesis items.

[nensondubois]

Well here's some widely known semi-rare Sega MegaDrive/Genesis pirates I picked up months ago.

[BlastProcessing402]

Most of my rare games aren't super rare, just higher demand than supply, like Panzer Dragoon Saga and Suikoden 2.

Equipment, about the only thing I have that'd be terribly rare would be the Action Replay for the Genesis. Had to send away for it from a magazine ad and then they came out with a newer version that didn't use the same codes or something so it wasn't very useful in the long run. Of course if I'd just waited I could've gone to any store in America and bought a Game Genie instead, but I'm impatient, lol. I even went to Canada to buy a NES Game Genie back when they were banned in the US.

I only know one other person who has it. I know next to nothing about it. I'd like to know how it was circulated.

EDIT: Doing a little searching, I read where someone said they mailed in some candy wrappers for a Lost World game or demo (forget which they said) but got SSv2 instead.

[xFiercePridex@aim.com]

for me not so much the rarity in general but the hardest for me to find and get at a decent price after 14 yrs would be intelligent qube.

I picked up a complete copy of a ARC thrift store for $4. I'm sure you'll find one like that one day.

[BnGamesReviews]

Tough Call, but some of these I know are very rare

MegaMan X3 SNES
Earthbound
Final Fantasy Tactics Orig.
Clock Tower
Conkers Bad Fur Day

Ive got a crap ton, hard to say what is rarer anymore.

[treismac]

Oddly enough, Darkwing Duck for the Turbografx-16, which was given to me by a friend along with a healthy handful of other TG-16 games.
