    Well it used to be a Pink Hello Kitty dreamcast, but traded it for a Turbo Duo and Turbo Express. Second place NES top loader (a hand me back from my dad when NES Open died on him and we got him a PSX and Hot Shots Golf...)

    Now, why would I do that...

    Well, I wasn't going to list EVERYTHING... I never know if obscurity really means rarity in these cases.

    (Oh, and re-reading the thread, I think Ianoid did you a disservice figuring that I'd be the only one that recognized the 4 systems he mentioned)

    Um... to me, probably my Boxed Genesis 3. To the US users, erm... Nah. Nothing obscure. Although I DO have Terranigma on the SNES. :twisted: (sorry. WILDLY OT)

    Hi Russ,

    (Oh, and re-reading the thread, I think Ianoid did you a disservice figuring that I'd be the only one that recognized the 4 systems he mentioned)
    Well depends on his point of view. We all know that you're a game console collector. Since you're posting very more often than me, Ian must have think that i was gone, dead or something.

    There's too many game systems that we could label "RARE", especially the ones that are too weird or obscure to be known.

    For now, i can't say anything about a project i'm working on but it does relate to video games. If i can finished this project, i'll be in heaven! :P ('nuff said!).

    Rarest system I've got is my Neo Geo Pocket Color. It was a pain to get one when I first could afford one, but after finding it, I can only say "Thank you CGE!"

    I have an Atari 2600 Jr. - is that rare? Can someone tell me?

    While it's common to you Americans, my NTSC N64 is priceless here in Australia!

    The rest of my consoles are commoners. I think!

    Nice...nice...too much money you have...as if any of that will lose value, I think not. The Sharp Twin actually isn't too rare; the rarest *functional* Famicom item would be the Sharp "Titler" unit, which is a Famicom that can add titles to your home videos. Hooray...

    My rarest item (not really rare at all) on the hardware side would have to be my MSX2, but I haven't been buying systems (in fact, at the moment the only other system I consider a collectible is my Neo Geo AES. Gold System, but who cares?)

    I should be getting a SuperGrafx + CD-ROM adapter soon, as well as a Sinclair ZX-Spectrum (it's been over a decade since anybody in my family owned one, in fact I daresay it was traded off for that awful TI-99 before I was born).
