i think it's the rarest NTSC NES game...and it attracts naked women. plus, you can show it to bums on the street for mad props.

I personally find it interesting that one of the features is that "The top 3 winners will stand on the winners' platform." Thanks, but no thanks, asshats. I don't need a pat on the back from your damn NES game.

:rofl:
Rarest NTSC NES game + sealed = it all makes sense now. Now if I only had a box full of those sitting around here somewhere...

expect the price to at least double, I have never seen a factory sealed US stadium events on ebay ever, it must be pretty close to a 1 of 1. NES sealed collectors are the craziest of the craziest in paying top dollar.

What's even more hilarious is this will sit on someone's shelf until the end of time... seems like a waste of money, but at least it's not my money.

it wouldn't be that hard to mimic the seal if you REALLY set your mind to it and practiced on other games. you could even put Duck Hunt in there and play it off. if they could get an opened copy for about a grand, why buy the sealed one for that much only to open it? Does it even matter what game is inside? would you open to check? the answer is no. :lol:

Someone should tell the buyers that you can't take it with you. Seriously though, if you ever used the power pad on the World Class Track Meet game then you will understand why the owner never bothered to open this game and play it. If only nintendo could have created a dance dance type game back then we would all be a lot fitter right now.
If only my copy of the 7-up Spot game for the nes was considered rare (it's not).
