rarest game you got sealed???

[Mishimaryu]

I still got Disgaea sealed! BTW I read the lastest Tips and Tricks book RE 2 and RE 3 for cube were 100 on ebay while original FF tactics went up to 200 on ebay now thats insane!!

[Strider Turbulence]

I got some sealed copies of Shaq-fu, the RARE ones that comes with Shaq's rap CD!

[bluekeith75]

in the last month i got firefighter f.d. 18, suikoden III and disgaea. All three were and are still sealed, put away in my collection! firefighter f.d. 18 was 29.99 at fye, suikoden III was 9.99 at kmart and disgaea was 39.99 at gamecrazy!!!!

[Tromack]

First off, a sealed Disgaea isn't that rare. Anyway, none. I play my games. Trying to use a game as an investment is the stupidest thing I've heard of since there was that guy on the Daily Show that was convinced that after the turn of the millenium, Pez dispensers would take over as the dominant form of currency.

[Arakias]

I have Captain Novolin for the SNES sealed. Never heard of it? Yeah, its rare.

I used pez dispensers to buy all my games...

[ChrisXE]

black lable FFt is 200$ on ebay? wow I got one of those mint/complete

link?

[mkg12]

bluekeith75 where do you live? those prices are really nice...

[ukhoops]

Ive got sealed kakuto chojin for Xbox. It was pulled from shelves right after it came out due to some supposed "racial slurs" within the game.

[mtxbass1]

Will this thread become rare/valuable?

[danny90044]

the only game i still have sealed is XII wich is only sealed cause ive been too lazy to unseal it since i bought it last night

[Scorch]

black lable FFt is 200$ on ebay? wow I got one of those mint/complete

link?

Yeah, SEALED. Open is worth like.. $10.

I have Captain Novolin for the SNES sealed. Never heard of it? Yeah, its rare.

I remember that. They offered it as a free rental at blockbuster back in the day. I rented it.

[Darkside Hazuki]

Xenogears (non-GH).
Rez (import).
Everquest Online Adventures. #-o

[bluekeith75]

i am from ohio mkg12. I do not save the games for investment, when i get a game i really like i always try to get a sealed copy later on to put away, so i can pull it out 20 years from now and enjoy again!

[Ecofreak]

2 Sealed copies of World of Warcraft: Collector's Edition.

Going for about $225 a pop on eBay. Got them for $80. :D

No doubt, my best investment EVAR.

Also recently purchased Arc the Lad Collection for PS sealed. Thanks again, IGotBass!

[Purkeynator]

Only the true hardcore will know how rare my sealed copy of Fox Hunt for Playstation really is.

[62t]

sealed Rez and Gitaroo-Man.
Also got 2 copies of firefighter f.d. 18

[AdamInPlaidum]

I have Captain Novolin for the SNES sealed. Never heard of it? Yeah, its rare.

The diabetes awareness game? That game sucks. Damn shame for children who got this one under the tree, because not only do they have diabetes, they have a terrible game.

[anonymouswhoami]

Nothing big... just Gitaroo Man (PS2) and World of Outlaws: Sprint Cars 2002 (PS2). Thanks to CAG, I was able to pick both up within the last year for a total of $15.

[swetooth9]

i sold my sealed disgaea for 63 bucks on ebay sealed when i had it...before the reprint

[vanlandw]

i have that la pucelle game sealed

[msdmoney]

I have a ton of games sealed, although probably none of them are rare, I just haven't gotten around to opening or playing them. I agree with someone earlier who said video games are a stupid investment. A game gets rereleased and there goes your investment.

[evilmax17]

Sealed:
Rez: $50 (later bought another for $25)
Gitaroo Man: $10
Suikoden III: $7
Disgaea: $25
RAD: $20

EDIT: Oh, STILL sealed? None, I open all of my games (because I don't plan to sell them :-P)

[DenisDFat]

none. I buy my games to play.

[b3b0p]

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtels II (NES)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III (NES)
Super Mario Bros 3 (NES)
Zelda: A Link to the Past (SNES)
Earthbound (SNES - never came sealed though)

Chris

[62t]

hmm i also got shadow hearts 1 and RAD sealed (but they don't worth as much as i hoped).

[epobirs]

I picked up Rhapsody for $10 sealed at Wal-mart and never got around to playing it. When I saw how outrageously overvalued it was and after reading some reviews decided I wouldn't be missing anything, so I sold it for a little over $100.

[Negative]

sealed Radiant Silvergun, im still kicking myself for opening Panzer Dragoon Saga, and playing it like for 5 minutes, im not into rpgs all that much.

[KrazyKefka]

None

[PapiChullo]

I have a bunch of sealed games just because I haven't gotten around to playing them. But the only one that would really be considered even somewhat rare is Disgaea. I plan on starting it eventually when I have time to focus on it.

[ViolentLee]

the only game i still have sealed is XII wich is only sealed cause ive been too lazy to unseal it since i bought it last night

Wow, that is rare -- the virtually-unknown prequel to XIII! ;)

Only the true hardcore will know how rare my sealed copy of Fox Hunt for Playstation really is.

I have a promo copy of the Fox Hunt soundtrack. Not sealed, though.

I'd say the rarest, most valuable sealed game I have is Paper Mario. I bought it at TRU years ago for about $10.

I find it funny how many people threadcrapped on this, ripping on people for having sealed games. Boo hoo -- just because other people view their gaming collections differently than you doesn't make you cooler than they are.

[Parathod]

I have a sealed second model SNES, but it's for when the one I have breaks.


Edit: I have no sealed games.

[Ozzkev55]

I have rare video games, just not sealed, though to to apply to a rare game(not just video) sealed, i have a 1900's Buck Rogers metal Toy Rocket, that my great grandfather would play with as a kid, he somehow managed to keep one sealed

EDIT: and as for kick in the pants stupidity, i opened the collectors Zelda:Ocarina of time, Ten Year Old McFarlane Toys, as well as the ever rare Vulcan Rare Action Figure, from MGS, which cameos in the Sequel for the PS2

[yops2k]

I don't usually keep games sealed for collection purposes, but the one exception I made is my copy of Final Fantasy Anthology (non GH) for the PS. I had won the game in a IGN contest in 2001 (something like "win the 10 best games of 2000" contest) and I kept it sealed because I already owned the game. I left it at home while I went to college. During that time, my parents moved and the case got cracked a little. Also, there's a nice little hole in the barcode in the back of the case (presumably because I won it in a contest). The fact that the game didn't really turn out to be rare also hurts a bit.

[XboxMaster]

I don't have ANY games sealed. When I buy a game it's opened on the way back to car or the car ride home whether I think I'll play it right away or not. I just love to open a new games and smell the "new game" smell. :D

[Rodimus]

Tales of Destiny II for PSX Sealed. Picked it up at a Toys r Us for $20 baby.

I got a friends that has a Panzer Dragoon Saga sealed. That bastard paid $10 for his copy. I Hate him.

[Apossum]

The only sealed games i have are VJ2, Spikeout, Shadow Hearts 1 + 2, MGS 3 and 2 copies of Ico

Haven't gotten around to VJ2 or Spikeout. I play my back ups of SH 1+2 and MGS3(and yes, with no remorse, so spare me the moral whipping), and I found the copies of Ico cheap and decided to hold on to them since I already have an opened copy and think the game will appreciate a bit.

[Kayden]

I dont really have much for big money games... I have to harder to find ones, but only one worth big money.

Sealed WoW:CE that I got for 60... tempted to play it...
I have a sealed copy of Shadow hearts 1, the promo copy.

The only games I have sealed are ones I haven't gotten to play yet, with WoW being the one possible exception.

[spoo]

None I am a Gamer not a collecter.

[TheRock88]

2 copies of RE2 (GC)
RE Code Veronica X (GC)
Shadow Hearts 1
Disgaea
Growlanser Generations Deluxe

[GuilewasNK]

The rarest...

Tales of Destiny II (PS One)
Rez (PS 2)
Paper Mario (N64)
Metal and Lace (PC) (Not a highly sought afer game but it is old and wasn't highly distributed. )

I really never had a lot of sealed games until I started coming to CAG. I got loads now but they aren't as "rare" as the ones I mentioned.

I bought a sealed DDR disney mix just a year ago... not for the purpose of keeping hidden, but for playing... only cost me 24.99

I have plenty of sealed games in my collection at the moment, only because I wont open a game until I am ready to play it

[Kaijufan]

The only game I have sealed is Second Sight, which I got during the CAG Gamestop Pre Order deal. I haven't gotten around to opening it yet.

[KingofGames]

Klonoa: Empire of Dreams - $9.90
Suikoden III - $12
Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse - $30

I used to own a sealed copy of Yu Gi Oh Premium Edition for PSX that I bought for $13. I sold that sucker on Ebay for $111 shipped though. :-D

[Mr. Anderson]

None. I don't care how rare a game is, if I have the means to play, it's getting played.

[bugg33]

Bomberman for NES
Ummm...
I used to have Final Fantasy III sealed before someone stole it.

Resident Evil series for Cube sealed except for 1 and 4 (non-rare ones).

Disgaea/La Pucelle/Phantom Brave (SE + regular) all sealed

[Rodimus]

None. I don't care how rare a game is, if I have the means to play, it's getting played.

Thanks for enlighting me

[LV-426RS]

My only sealed game, Karaoke Revolution 2. I won it and have no mic.

[Apossum]

teh SPIKEOUT

[Scorch]

teh SPIKEOUT

Might as well open it, the game's being reprinted now.. should be everywhere by this time next week.

Fatal Frame 2 on XBox. Not rare, but it's the only game I still have sealed.

[vanlandw]

La Pucelle and a few other games i have a low interest in....pikmin, mad mistrio <sp>, and PN 40 something?!??!

oh well...gg everybody

[Arikado]

Metal Slug X (PSX)

[PhrostByte]

Rez

[The VGM]

Fighters Megamix for Game.com (It isn't rare). I have 2 copies so it is the only game that will stay sealed.

On another note, I can't believe DDR Disney Mix is rare! I have that game sitting upstairs right now, I love that game. I don't think I'd ever sell it though.

[whoknows]

None, I can't stand keeping a game sealed, I want to play what I have instead of stare at the box.

[xenoman80]

only sealed games i got are .hack 3 and 4 and gta sa and pocket fighters(been trying to trade pocket fighters for paper mario 1 mint and complete anyone interested pm me)

[Apossum]

Might as well open it, the game's being reprinted now.. should be everywhere by this time next week.

Fatal Frame 2 on XBox. Not rare, but it's the only game I still have sealed.


d00d it liek sold for 1000 on ebay last week, i'm hloding on teh rar3 SPIKEOUT

[fieldkillah]

Just Dragon Warrior 7 (PSX) and .hack part 2 (PS2), i have too many RPGs to play at the moment to open them.

[coolsteel]

I also just don't like keeping games sealed, at one point I was opening up games i've had for a year only to find I hated them. Meaning it sat there taking space for a year. Rare or not if it stinks I don't want it in my collection, better to play and sell on ebay

[gaelan]

I have a shrink wrap machine, so all of my games can be sealed at any given time.

[psiufoxx2]

Valkyrie Profile. Sealed. Bought it when it first came out and never got around to playing it. I may open it one day, if I have the time :P

[Javery]

Trying to use a game as an investment is the stupidest thing I've heard of since there was that guy on the Daily Show that was convinced that after the turn of the millenium, Pez dispensers would take over as the dominant form of currency.

Yup. I don't understand people's obsession with keeping sealed games or how every 5th thread is someone asking "does anyone know if X will become rare/valuable?" So what if it is worth $200 because $200 isn't shit.

[psiufoxx2]

Yup. I don't understand people's obsession with keeping sealed games or how every 5th thread is someone asking "does anyone know if X will become rare/valuable?" So what if it is worth $200 because $200 isn't shit.

Seriously you're right. If someone's into games simply to make money, they've come to the wrong web site. We're in it for the GAMES, people... Yes/no?

[EagleNights]

Intelligent qube, nothing else

[Purple Flames]

Xenogears

[Beana Blasta]

Ive got a house of the dead game sealed for the sega saturn, non import, that worth anything?

[youbastards]

Knuckles Chaotix for 32x =)

[sonarrat]

hmm i also got shadow hearts 1 and RAD sealed (but they don't worth as much as i hoped).

I sold a Shadow Hearts 1 - no wrap, but sticky label intact - for $63 shipped yesterday.

As of right now, the sealed games I have are Growlanser Generations, Spikeout: Battlestreet (those first two aren't getting opened), Killer7 GCN, Pikmin 2, FFIV Advance, Golden Sun 2, and Iridion II. Scratch that, I just opened Iridion (and threw out the box, since it was smashed).

[Vinny]

I sold a Shadow Hearts 1 - no wrap, but sticky label intact - for $63 shipped yesterday.

Holy crap! I'm glad I didn't wait and just picked up both games for $35.. and I'm glad I got them because they're wonderful games.

And why is it that everytime someone mentions a rare game, people come in and cry about how it's stupid to keep games sealed and etc.? I used to open all my games before but ever since I realized that I might never get to playing some of them, I decided to leave them sealed until I get to them. If needed, I could sell a sealed game for a bit more money than an open copy which wouldn't have done me any good (since I wouldn't have played it and it would go for less). I agree that games are a horrible investment and it seems like a lot of people decide what games to buy depending on whether it's rare or not.

With that, I don't think any of my sealed games are really rare... SMT Nocturne was probably my rarest but not anymore since the atlus reprint.

[Purkeynator]

Yup. I don't understand people's obsession with keeping sealed games or how every 5th thread is someone asking "does anyone know if X will become rare/valuable?" So what if it is worth $200 because $200 isn't shit.

That almost a core xbox 360 buddy. Quite a bit of money to me.

[alonzomourning23]

Maybe in the big scheme of things. But really, many people would disagree with you on that. Its a nice bit of change that could help you pay bills for the month, or buy a few extra presents for your kids etc. Or if you want to be really frivelous then its a nice restaurant and a show.

[Maynard]

wait for it, wait for it! Chrono Trigger and the original guide brand new wrapped. Both price tags still on them. Also copies of Ring of Red, Gitaroo man, and Bangai - O for dreamcast.

[CappyCobra]

Marvel vs Capcom 2. Cherry. For Dreamcast >:-D

[EagleNights]

Ive got a house of the dead game sealed for the sega saturn, non import, that worth anything?

No. Can I have it?




Just kidding, yeah it sure is. Non-sealed complete mint are worth about $50-$75, from what I can tell.

[sonarrat]

wait for it, wait for it! Chrono Trigger and the original guide brand new wrapped. Both price tags still on them. Also copies of Ring of Red, Gitaroo man, and Bangai - O for dreamcast.

Holy crap - not so much at the game, but at the guide. I don't even want to think about how much that must be worth.

[Allnatural]

I sold a Shadow Hearts 1 - no wrap, but sticky label intact - for $63 shipped yesterday.
Damn. It was only about six or seven months ago that I bought my copy for $15 new. Easy to find at that price too.

[takingchase]

Shadow hearts sealed with shrink wrap and everything my most rare game. I traded a used DQVIII for it.

[Gameboy415]

Holy crap - not so much at the game, but at the guide. I don't even want to think about how much that must be worth.

Is it the old Nintendo Power guide? If so, I gots it too.

[thunder_gamer]

I got many sealed games, due to I do not play games as much as I did before, but do not think many of them are rare. The rare ones might be:

DragonBall Z: Budokai
Ridge Racer V
Tekken 4
Zone of the Enders: Second Runner

I even got a copy of Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance with a wrapper, there is a story behind why I took off the wrapper.;) The security seal is still very much intact, I did not even attempt to peel it off at all.

[Ikohn4ever]

any of the TRU 10 dollar games that I havent played yet, I like to play my games

[m_que01]

I have Dragon Warrior II for NES sealed. I'm not really sure if it's worth anything right now. Maybe in the future. Of course i've already played it through emulation legally since I own it.

[LV-426RS]

I have Dragon Warrior II for NES sealed. I'm not really sure if it's worth anything right now. Maybe in the future. Of course i've already played it through emulation legally since I own it.
And I guess you made the back-up yourself?

Sadly my rarest sealed game is probably Karaoke Revolution 2 for the PS2. I don't have many sealed games at all.

[Radioactive_Man]

None of these are rare, I just thought I might as well post them.

I only have RE 4 : PE(ps2), Splinter Cell : CT LE(xbox), Metal Slug 4 & 5 (xbox), Fatal Frame 2 (xbox), Futurama (xbox) and Growlanser Generations Deluxe (ps2)

I got RE 4 PE just to support Capcom for making such an amazing game.

Splinter Cell we had at work for 5 months behind the counter in a glass case, no one bought it so I said f it.

Metal Slug I just haven't had time to play it.

Waiting to get Fatal Frame 1 until I open part 2

I have an opened copy of Futurama, bought the second one so Matt Groening could sign it at comic con, no dice.

I want to open Growlanser just to use the wacth, but I wont anymore seeing as I have a uber bad ass RE 4 watch my boss gave me.

[Dr Mario Kart]

the vast majority of my games are opened, because I play my games. Sitting there sealed doesnt do them any good. I guess it would have to be Growlanser Deluxe, unless you think Disgaea, Nocturne, or DDS are actually rarer, but I dont think so.

I've actually got all 4 NIS PS2 Games sealed (La Pucelle, Disgaea, Phantom Brave, Makai Kingdom). I buy two copies of the game, copy it to the hard drive, and sell it off, leaving me with the sealed one and I can still play the game.

[GunPanther]

I'm not sure if these would be rare, but since they're on some of the classic systems, I'm pretty sure it's safe to say they're rare.

(Of course, all of these are factory sealed)

SNES:

Super Castlevania IV

Nosferatu

Sim City

Ghoul Patrol


Sega CD:

Shining Force CD

Surgical Strike

Fahrenheit


Genesis:

E-Swat

Phantasy Star IV


I have quite a few games for the XBox, PS1, PS2, N64, Saturn, Dreamcast and GCN that are still sealed, but since those games are pretty much for systems released around 1995-2000, I don't consider them to be 'classic' systems.



GP

[sabin23]

La Pucelle Tactics... until I gave it away as a X-mas present last month.

[sonarrat]

I got many sealed games, due to I do not play games as much as I did before, but do not think many of them are rare. The rare ones might be:

DragonBall Z: Budokai
Ridge Racer V
Tekken 4
Zone of the Enders: Second Runner

I even got a copy of Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance with a wrapper, there is a story behind why I took off the wrapper.;) The security seal is still very much intact, I did not even attempt to peel it off at all.

ZOE2 and MGS2S are pretty rare in sealed condition. The cheapest copies of either one cost well over $100 on Amazon.

[MadFlava]

ZOE2 and MGS2S are pretty rare in sealed condition. The cheapest copies of either one cost well over $100 on Amazon.

MGS2S for PS2 or Xbox? I've seen a lot of Xbox version of the game (have a sealed one myself). There might be some seal PS2 versions at a compusa near me (since people seem to rarely buy games there).

Also, I noticed that Amazon "dealer" prices are way over inflated. I remember when the two disc edition of Fight Club went out of print people on Amazon where charging $60-70 for a used copy of the DVD. That was almost triple the rate that it was going for on Ebay.

As for me these use to be rare sealed games but not much so anymore:
Disgaea
Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne

The only games I still have sealed are this current generations.

[MorPhiend]

RE4 CE for the GCN.

EDIT: Oh, and SMT:DDS. If that's rare at all...

[onikage]

The only games I have sealed are a few I got for Christmas and the ones from the TRU sale. Otherwise, everything of mine is opened.

I guess DDS is the rarest I have sealed.

[ananag112]

I have Earthbound (with guide), FFIII, and Rez sealed.

[TheBlueWizard]

I have a copy of Phoenix Wright sealed. I bought it, planned to play it, and I haven't finished the games that I need to play first.

TBW

[Lexicon]

Not sure what my rarest I have on hand anymore is, Last year I sold my copy of Final Fantasy (nes) sealed and Exertainment Mountain Bike Rally/Speed Racer (snes) (that one will only get the crazed collectors excited) at the time one of only 5-10 known to be around.

[youbastards]

My updated list:

Knuckles Chaotix - Factory Sealed (Sega 32x)
Steel Battalion - Factory Sealed w/ original cardboard shipping box!!! (Xbox)
Mario Dance Dance Revolution (Gamecube)
Kingdom Hearts (Non-GH) (PS2)

Funny story about my Steel Battalion:
I bought this when I worked part-time at a local Funcoland/GameStop when they had an annual Employee Appreciation week (extra 30% employee discount!).
I paid around $140 for this and immediately took it home and put it directly in my closet. I don't know why I bought it, other than the fact that I got such a good deal on it.
I keep forgetting I have this thing!!!

[Pancake Rabbit]

I guess Kirby's Avalanche for SNES?

got it for free about 2 years ago and never opened it because I already have about 30 versions of puyo-pop/bean machine

[thunder_gamer]

ZOE2 and MGS2S are pretty rare in sealed condition. The cheapest copies of either one cost well over $100 on Amazon.

Cool. Glad I kept them sealed. :)

[Roufuss]

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney

Until they decide to reprint it...

[DomLando]

I got a bunch of rare games but none sealed, i play my games

[rabbitt]

Rez, Marvel vs. Capcom 2 (PS2), Doom II (GBA), and Mario Kart 64.

[Maynard]

almost forgot the rarest one I have besides Chrono Trigger wrapped, i have a copy of Panzer Dragoon Saga still wrapped also.

[Danro]

The only game I have left sealed is Virtua Quest. Which I think im going to create a contest for to give away here on CAG.

[djkunai]

Super Mario RPG
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/djkunai/P1010359.jpg

[EagleNights]

I guess now after IQ it's Wild Arms 2. I just bought it from estarland.com, and don't even know if it's rare, but that's my only other sealed one. (Is it at all rare?)

Well, if anyone wants to get one it's $35.

[Yoshox2000]

Yeah, keeping game sealed is just...weird. I mean these are games, not figurines or something like that. Heck, even if I know I won't get to play a game anytime soon(quite common with all the games I pick up), I still open it. It's like a ritual. If feels good to open something you just bought. Although with all the used games I buy, I spend more time removing stupid, annoying stickers than removing shrink wrap

[Rictor]

First off, a sealed Disgaea isn't that rare. Anyway, none. I play my games. Trying to use a game as an investment is the stupidest thing I've heard of since there was that guy on the Daily Show that was convinced that after the turn of the millenium, Pez dispensers would take over as the dominant form of currency.

Did you know Ebay was originally started as place to auction pez dispensers (and other collectibles). In the early days, I auctioned off an old pez dispenser I got at a flea market...vintage Green Hornet...and it got me around $300...paid $1. Looks like the same pez dispenser goes for a lot less on Ebay these days...probably has to do with a much larger supply now that the Ebay community is so much larger.

[Rictor]

I also think keeping games sealed is silly. I'm putting together a full set of NES games, and sealed games go for insane prices. $400 for a sealed Zelda when the exact same game is $10 if it's open and complete? Why?

Also, at least for the vintage games, keeping them sealed might be dangerous for long term collectibility as they have batteries inside the cart that may leak with age. Not all cartridge game have batteries in them, just the old games that had a save feature, especially RPGs.

[Lobsterjohnson]

My Factory Sealed copy of Duck Hunt that I got for free....

http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a171/domkillsyou/nes6.jpg

My NES collection r0x0rz.

[Rodimus]

Is the Duck hunt really "factory sealed" or has it been re-shrink wrapped? Looking at the seal of the wrap you can tell, if you know what to look for.

[Lobsterjohnson]

Yeah its got the seal across the back. It had the plastic hook on it but someone picked it off, the old adheisive is still there.

[Ma12kez]

I'm not sure if its rare but I think the only one I have yet to be opened is Digital Devil Saga: Shin Megami Tensei (the box set one).

[depascal22]

Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne with the soundtrack
Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga 1 without any stickers on the shrinkwrap
Pure Evil 2-pack
everything else is opened and being enjoyed immensely

[Gameboy415]

EDIT: and as for kick in the pants stupidity, i opened the collectors Zelda:Ocarina of time, Ten Year Old McFarlane Toys, as well as the ever rare Vulcan Rare Action Figure, from MGS, which cameos in the Sequel for the PS2

Those MGS Action figures are worth money now?

I have every single one from the original series (including the 3 "stealth" variants) still sealed and tucked away in a box somewheres. Hmmm. Maybe I should sell off my toy collection when I go home to visit the folks this summer. *shrug*

Oh and I don't think I have any sealed games. I have TONS of "rare" games, but I like to play my games, not look at 'em.

[111111]

wow sealed that's a tough one for me since i dont collect sealed games/i dont care for em'.

hmmm....i guess probably my sealed SOTN.

i have a sealed digital devil saga but that game is not rare at all imo.

[evilmax17]

My Factory Sealed copy of Duck Hunt that I got for free....
Any good stories behind it?

[Parathod]

The rarest "game" I have sealed is the SNES redesign with Zelda:LttP. Other than that, the only other games I have sealed are Mark of Kri and Jampack something 2004, neither of which are rare or valueable.

What a fun drinking game this thread would be: Every time someone remarks, "I play my games..." you take a drink. You'd be hammered in no time. Thanks, snobby CAGs!

Thanks, snobby CAGs!

ZING!

I guess they don't realize that most of us have played these games, and only picked them up because of value.

[Lobsterjohnson]

Any good stories behind it?

When I was working at gamestop some guy came in and went "Hey I don't want these do you?" And 1 was mario bros/duck hunt cart and the other was the factory sealed duck hunt.

It was awesome.

Lots of sealed games and lots of opened games, all of which are in mint conditon. A few that come to mind that I know are sealed are:

Panzer Dragoon Saga
Phantasy Star IV
Disgaea
Resident Evil 4 Limited Collectors x2 w/no dents :)
Zelda Collectors Edition GC

Lots more. Of all my sealed games, I have open copies to play. Panzer Dragoon Saga would be the only exception. I had another copy, but it was 'misplaced' in my last move.

I wonder how many people bought a copy of DOOM Collectors Edtion for XBox and stashed it away. I bought a copy. Opened it, played it, and loved every minute of it. Worth the price of admission for me. A shame to see it selling for $9.99 now.

Nice topic. Interesting reading the comments between collectors and gamers. Gamers claim not to collect, but play. Collectors claim to collect and play. I suppose I would be in the latter category.

The diabetes awareness game? That game sucks. Damn shame for children who got this one under the tree, because not only do they have diabetes, they have a terrible game.
:rofl:

[CoffeeEdge]

Probably either CIMA: The Enemy, or Dokapon: Monster Hunter, both for GBA.

Neither are really all that rare, but they're two of the only games I have sealed, and I intend to open and play them, one day.


And hey, sqyxzylyx: for goodness' sake, open and play some of those gems!

When I was working at gamestop some guy came in and went "Hey I don't want these do you?" And 1 was mario bros/duck hunt cart and the other was the factory sealed duck hunt.

It was awesome.

I got some good hook-ups back when I worked at Funcoland (which was eventually absorbed by GameStop): a foursome of Super Famicom complete games including DBZ, a too-scratched-to-take Game Gear, a mint copy of Whizz for SNES, and mint copies of Lunar I and II for Sega CD after we stopped taking those games in trade.

I think I've heard this has been reprinted, but I still have a sealed copy of Gitaroo man from its initial release. I have an opened one as well, and I've got to say its one of my favorite PS2 games.

I have a ton of sealed games from all platforms...just because I haven't gotten around to playing them yet, but I will. But I have to say the best game I have is a sealed Custer's Last Stand for the Atari 2600 that I got at a flea market around 15 years ago for $4.00.
