Rule of Rose sealed for the PS2? I hadn't heard anything about this game until I stumbled upon it in a Gamestop.
$30 (sealed) could be more. the last time i check amazon when they had it on stock was at $39.99. its not that great of a game maybe just because its an atlus game that still holds its $20-$30 value for used copies.

$30. GTA Trilogy is still in stock at targets. RE1 longbox was $40-$50. now you can buy one less than $30. a sealed copy of that game could go upto $500. i saw one that ended at $470

For the Xbox, I have sold 2 complete copies in the last month for $32 each. The PS2 version goes as high as $50. This is also one of the few games I have never seen at a pawn shop (both systems).

Someone wanna answer mine about NBA Jam TE (longbox, PS1) & Adventures of Lomax (Ps1)?

How about the limited edition US version of Shenmue that includes the Shenmue Jukebox disc? I got it off of Half for $7, and I tried looking around, but I haven't seen anything completed.

Rare in terms of availability, but not in terms of value.

//edit: I have Operation Genesis on PS2 but it doesn't have an instruction book.. so it's kinda dead to me :(

The value of these has dropped a lot since the XBLA announcement. It used to go for about $50, but now I see it ending as low as $27. I sold mine last summer for only $30 because that's the highest offer I could get.

I believe the White label is worth far more. Sealed copies are usually a collector's market, and collector's know the white label is the only way to tell the difference between original and reprint

reprints and download formats somehow hurts the value of the physical format for most games. since cds/dvds are cheap enough to produce, its no wonder companies like squarenix, sony, capcom, and atlus are doing reprints.

I have sealed copies of Fatal Frame II, Disgaea, and Nocturne all with the white security strip but can't figure out if they're worth more than the sealed reprinted versions.

I actually just e-mailed Tecmo begging for a Fatal Frame boxed collection. The guy answered with a reply much longer than the typical form letter bullshit and promised to forward it to the people that make the decisions. Hopefully this will come through for me and they'll re-release them all in a set because the used market price is insane. A little bit of a slap in the face to buy a single one (~$40) but a royal assfucking if you wanted to get all of them.

I figured with the survival horror blitz on the horizon (RE5, Silent Hill, Siren remake) and Fatal Frame IV in the works, it would be a prime time for Tecmo to capitalize on a Fatal Frame 1-3 set. Similar to the MGS Essentials and Devil May Cry set released a while back.

Here is a very rare and valued game.

Halloween by wizard Games on the Atari.

Game was cancelled about 3 weeks after release(along with Texas Chainsaw MAssacre) due to violent acts in the game.

And since Halloween has a big Following to it I have seen this game with box go for well over $400-$500 on Ebay.

this version is all old school teams. It was also a rental store only. A complete version is hard to find since most rental stores then were your mom and pop stores so they threw away the box and instructions. I actually have a complete copy of. Mint condition. Instructions are an 8 out of 10.

Anyone think the Pikmin games are going to be worth more now, or when Pikmin 3 is officially announced? I know that original games are worth more when a sequel is released, but that doesn't always seem to be the case (Smash Brothers Melee plummeted once Brawl was release, etc.).

Would any of the Gamecube Resident Evil games be worth more when Resident Evil 5 comes out? I've seen a bunch of them on Gamestop shelves (reprints, right?) so I know that their value hasn't held up like they once did.

I've got an offer to buy that, Paper Mario, and a purple N64 for $35. I'm thinking of biting.

I'd definitely bite!

I dropped $100 for a boxed copy of Eva back in the day so $35 for a copy WITH Paper Mario AND an N64 is a crazy good deal.

Evangelion 64 is still the best Eva game ever made IMO.

is it the one with boggle/yatzee/battleship? if so, its a front lane game. it really depends on the manufacturer/publisher if they dont get enough orders from distributors, they might have limited its production. it might come back for the this year's holiday season. i remember seeing it just about everywhere for black friday last year and for the same price of $14.99.

Hm... something's not right here. The game you're talking about sounds like the Monopoly 4-pack but that game's been rare for ages now. Are you sure you're not confusing it with the other 4-in-one game pack? I know there's another one that's basically worth nothing.

Any of you guys have an idea on what to expect for sealed first print copies of games which were reprinted after the white label was no longer used?

I have sealed copies of Fatal Frame II, Disgaea, and Nocturne all with the white security strip but can't figure out if they're worth more than the sealed reprinted versions.

I've seen many copies of Disgaea, with the white seal on eBay, and most of them sell for around the same price as the reprints. Now, the reprints of Ar tonelico, Digital Devil Saga, and Nocturne are missing the bonuses. So the originals still command a higher price.

I would say the ones that have the strip would sell for about the same as the reprint, unless the original had bonuses that were not included in the reissue.

Here's an auction with a sealed original Disgaea & Phantom Brave which sold for $51.

Yeah, it seems to be the trend. I saw a few Nocturnes with the soundtracks go for just a hair over the sealed reprints. I saw a few sealed, DDS Deluxe go close to $200.. I'm slapping myself because my boxset is open yet the game is sealed (original, white label). Those copies don't really get much more than complete DDS Deluxe sets.

The following is from Wikipedia and the article on there DOES show a blue colored cart. It's a 3 on Digitpress' rarity guide.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bible_Adventures

From Wikipedia:

Bible Adventures is an unlicensed Christian (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian) video game (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game) by Wisdom Tree (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wisdom_Tree), first released in 1991 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1991_in_video_gaming) for the NES (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_Entertainment_System), and later re-released in 1995 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1995_in_video_gaming) for the Sega Mega Drive/Sega Genesis (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sega_Mega_Drive). It contains three different games: Noah's Ark (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noah%27s_Ark), Baby Moses (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moses), and David and Goliath (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_and_Goliath), all of which are based rather loosely on stories from the Hebrew Bible (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hebrew_Bible). The gameplay (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gameplay) of these games is sidescroller style similar to that of Super Mario Bros. 2 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Mario_Bros._2).

may i humbly remind folks to poke around the internet for more than 3 seconds, before coming here to ask if something is rare?

further, it seems most people don't care about the rarity, and are only interested in hearing about the monetary value of a game. again, you could find more than you ever wanted to know by simply searching out the usual used game outlets first. i suspect a lot of folks are using this thread more as a "bragging rights" arena than anything else.

lastly, use the "Search this Thread" function before posting, as odds are that the title you're asking about has been discussed ad nauseam already.

If you were pointing this message at me, I admit that I was rather pressed for time earlier and I was genuinely curious about the availability for the games I listed mostly due to their import status. Looking on eBay or play-asia.com is all well and good, but I was more interested in the relative rarity of such titles in North America, where I assume most of the userbase is located.

Oh and if atheism is dodging accountability through denial, I'd argue that monotheism might just be dodging accountability by obtaining a pardon from a possibly mythical creature. ;)

Nocturne has a while to go before it does. Odin Sphere sold 100K within a few months of release and received a lot of hype with in, Nocturne sold about 50K in it's first runs and I doubt they reprinted that many more copies and it didn't get as much abstention.

Bonk's Adventure, Bonk's Revenge, and Splatterhouse are the only good games there. I would say it's worth between $50-$80 depending on how much you want those 3 games. I wouldn't say anything there is too rare. You can get all that on eBay for pretty cheap if you look around.

What is the difference between subsistence and snake eater, other than that they have different names?

Samus

08-08-2008, 12:13 AM

Subsistence has the better camera (not fixed and over head), and has a bonus disc containing all kinds of bonus missions/content. Also has Metal Gear 1 and 2, in their ONLY form released in the United States. You can't even emulate an English copy of Metal Gear 1 and 2. And these are not at all the NES games if you're thinking of those. They were released for MSX.

wow... i was digging thru a box of sealed games i've purchased in the last 2-4 years and found about a dozen that i forgot i even owned. while looking them up online for fun, i realized that Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence fetches a stupid price! i didn't even know there was a different version, called Snake Eater. i'm not even sure where the heck i got this game in the first place. i mean, i'm glad, but the price is just silly. anyone know what the difference is? i'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that Subsistence must be somewhat rare, right?MGS3 is snake eater. it was just dubbed as that because snake can now kill creatures and eat them and snakes are one of them. but yeah, Subsistence replaced what was once the value of MGS2: Substance. sealed copies goes for as much as $70 if not maybe more.

Actually, it was mostly called Snake Eater because Snake was engaged in operation "Snake Eater" in a mission to destroy the "Cobra Unit."

Lame nerd facts, I know. I couldn't resist. Forgive me. ;)

Subsistence completely changes the gaming experience by putting in a free roaming camera, as opposed to the fixed camera in Snake Eater. There's also the bonus disc featuring some pretty neat stuff. Oh, and it included Metal Gear Online play (but the server apparently didn't last all too long and was pretty short lived).

How much should you pay for a Nintendo Power 100th Issue Gold N64 Controller?

08-08-2008, 07:03 PM

hmm just picked up tales of symphonia and dragon quest VIII for 20 bucks each, was it worth it or should i return it? Ive been to lazy to read any reviews about them and wanted to know if any CAG played them before.$20 is the MSRP for Dragon Quest VIII, so if you bought it new, you got it for MSRP, yay. If you paid $20 for it used you didn't get a very good deal.

According to videogamepricecharts.com, Tales goes for around $25 used and $50 new. So you either got an okay deal or a pretty sweet one depending. I think the price of this is going to spike this Christmas after the Wii sequel comes out. That's when I plan to sell my copy.

Dragon Quest VIII is a great game if you go in for that very traditional JRPG style. I didn't care for Tales of Symphonia but a lot of people love it. It is notable for being basically the only critically acclaimed JRPG exclusive to GameCube.

Sonic The Hedgehog for the Sega Master System....I've read that the US version goes for 200-300 dollars, but how do you even tell if it is really the US version (I'm assuming mine is because its from some guys collection from when he was a kid and I doubt he would be able to get ahold of a PAL game anywhere back then), what is it REALLY worth?

The US version is identical to the PAL version except there is a UPC sticker over the original bar code on the box. The sticker should have the number 010086070767.

I saw one sell for $300 on eBay once. I don't think I've seen another one since that auction (it was a few years ago), though I haven't really been checking.

There is a local store around St. Louis where you can still get it very easily (at least you could in January still, I since have moved, but there were 5 or 6 of them that had it).

Im not saying your going to run into them at Walmarts or anything, but as early as last year I had seen some Walmarts that still had it.

Obviously any sealed PS1 game in a b&m store is going to be more difficult, but as stated, Silhouette Mirage is one of the more common ones if you are going to head out on a hunt. Not as common as the GH Final Fantasy games but nothing like finding most PS1 games sealed.

I thought that the reason the PS2 version was sought after (higher priced) was because A) larger user base, B) better controller suited to 2D fighting, and C) backwards compatible whereas the Xbox has glitches.

Aesthetically, there's pretty much no difference between the two, as both consoles run the game in large-pixeled, grainy goodness.

it's becoming painfully obvious that people are using this thread mostly to brag about what mildly rare games they've purchased, rather than actually glean information or values of genuinely rare or hard-to-find titles.

Just wondering how much that's worth.unless your arcade cabinet starts with Marvel and ends with Vs. Capcom (the jamma board itself is or was worth around $250-$400 before), it shouldnt be worth more than what you paid for it. sometimes even less on ebay. what sucks about selling one on ebay is that you have to pay alot for shipping and handling. unless you can arrange a way to have it picked up, it could sell for more. if you keep it about 10 more years maybe it'll be worth more :).

Err, with all due respect, that might not be 100% accurate, because I've actually seen eBay prices go up to $500 for a legit Darkstalkers cabinet, and that's without the shipping.

How much do you think Marvel Vs. Capcom would go for, anyway?on ebay, youll probably spend around $400 including shipping. these cabinets would be worth alot of money one day, as capcom would once again in the future make a 3rd installment due to demand. buying them piece by piece might be easier on the pocket but eventually will cost you more. if you are thinking of buying it on ebay, an incomplete cabinet might be cheaper, like missing its original marque and controller guides, etc.

check this one out that ended at $227 (http://cgi.ebay.com/Marvel-Super-Heroes-Vs-Capcom-FULL-SIZE-ARCADE-GAME-NR_W0QQitemZ260284504572QQihZ016QQcategoryZ13716QQ ssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)

you could also check out a local arcade/amusement centers, those guys who put gumball machines at super markets, or those .25 cents have rides at store fronts, etc. to see if they will sell arcades if they have them. at least you know its working by testing it and it shouldn't cost you to ship it since its local.

It's very easy to tell between resealed and factory sealed items for regular sized, normal box games. The Y-fold seal on the top and bottom of the box pretty much ensures that it's factory sealed. If it's shrink wrapped, then you've got a resealer.

A few mistakes here and there, no big deal. If you look at the supply vs demand, you could consider it very scarce.

But i kept the jewel case artworks shown here

I think you could get $30 total for them, at the least. You should list them separately though, I think they would get you more as you'll them get more bids: from those who just want the case and from those who just want the manual and from those who want both. If you list them together, someone who only wants the manual/case might not bid as much.

Hello this is Ron from RarityGuide.com, thanks for your comments.

Regarding our rarity ratings, we do not measure how "rare" a game is just by how many of it are out there or how hard it is to find one. Instead, we consider many additional factors such as age, demand, popularity and collectibility. You are right in saying that you would never have trouble hunting down a copy of that. In fact, you can find more copies of Silent Hill on eBay than Formula 98 (which is not so popular). Does that mean Formula 98 should get a higher rating? Most likely not. The Formula 98s will probably have a low succesfull sell rate, while the Silent Hill will sell most of the times because of the higher rarity rating.

That being said, I agree that "Scarce" can be misleading in this context. We will review the terminology used and see how we can improve it to prevent such confusion.

Currently there indeed aren't that many categories on the website since it just launched. While some degree of automation is employed in determining rarities and values, we manually go over all the figures and perform extensive market research before publishing, and this takes time. Still, we decided to launch early so that the data compiled so far can be of benefit to others. In a sense, the guide will never be "complete" since there are always more categories that can be added.

Ah, reminds me of the stack of FFVII I saw at Kmart when I was younger, 14.99, nobody would ever buy those. And then when the games were first going at 50 on ebay, I remember telling myself that it was probably a price spike and it would be around 20 again in a month. Whoops.....

I'd say it's more because of people now being aware of valuable games.

Back then, most people probably didn't figure that those $5 games would end up selling for 10x as much. Games in the last generation have been more aware of collectible games. I think the only bargain bin games we'll see this time around will be the ones which received a large print like sports games.

Ahh, I remember that! My BJ's had tons of copies of Tales of Destiny II and Star Ocean for PSX. I was considering picking them up, but then decided not to (as no one really cared about them years ago, and I had little interest in them).

Now I wish I had picked them up, but how could I have known back then? At least I got a brand new Grandia for under $10 back then! Now that's worth a lot today. Great game too!

I wish I wasn't like 11 years old when all of the PS1 games were being clearanced.

I searched the thread and couldn't find the exact answer so here it goes. I, apparently, have a "very" rare copy of Final Fantasy VII black label with the misprint on the back of the case. I looked on eBay and noticed that these copies go for around $200? Is that true or just an inflated price? Thanks!

By the way, I am the original owner and have had it since day 1.

FFVII black label already commands a very hefty price alone. Misprints would probably add to the price, but $200 is probably too much for something like that. Then again, some people are into that sort of thing.

I was thinking along the same lines. I did a search for "Final Fantasy VII misprint" on eBay and there were big differences in price. One from like $100 and another one from $230 or so. I knew the game was rare but I can't seem to get a firm gauge of what the price should be.

Tales of Destiny 1, 2, Arc the Lad collection BRAND NEW, Persona 2 , Thousand Arms:

Think I could get close to $200 for those?

Arc the Lad alone will get you close to $100.

I was wondering the same thing about the misprint FFVII.
I could never find the answer.

Also I know it's not a game but I have a comic book of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. I asked about it in general with no luck. It's not one of those Valiant few page comics. It's got quite a few.

The misprinted Final Fantasy VIIs never seemed to consistently sell at the same price. There probably aren't very many collectors of misprinted games out there since they don't even always sell for more than a normal copy. I'd think most collectors would rather have a perfect copy than one with an error. Some sellers probably just get lucky and get a couple bidders who think it's very valuable.

Sealed Castlevania Double Pack?
its common for the moment. above $30. really not worth to sell it for that much. harmony of dissonance alone, sealed, would be $200! the most expensive GBA game atm. beats Tactics Ogre by maybe $50 to $80.

By the way, I am the original owner and have had it since day 1.its is rare but it is common since they probably printed a few thousand of them. there are actually 3 known misprints for FFVII for Ps1

http://www.game-rave.com/psx/playstation_perfect_guide/releasedgames/final_fantasy_vii/index_files/ff7_error_i.jpg this is what you probably have?

http://www.game-rave.com/psx/playstation_perfect_guide/releasedgames/final_fantasy_vii/index_files/ff7_esrb.jpg not a big deal but it is a misprint/variant.

there was a reprinting that fixed the rather odd ESRB rating. The original version had a Teen rating and listed 'Realistic Violence' as the cause. Eventually it was changed to the more minor descriptions shown in the picture. http://www.game-rave.com/psx/playstation_perfect_guide/releasedgames/final_fantasy_vii/index_files/ff7_error.jpg and this (for greatest hits)

you can read about them here (http://www.game-rave.com/psx/playstation_perfect_guide/releasedgames/final_fantasy_vii/index.html).

they aren't worth as much as the original/regular versions. they're not so special. maybe upto $20 more if you emphasized them in your listings.
