What is the rarest video game you own?

Oh yeah, I have a Panasonic 3DO and a bunch of games for it. The problem is, the plastic gear responsible for moving the laser is stripped and it doesn't move any more. I've looked into getting it repaired, but no one seems willing.

conkers bad fur day for the n64, i bought it for £50 5/6 years ago, amazing game

I've never played this, and the original Xbox remaster isn't an option either since it has parts of it are missing from the original.

 

i highly recommend getting a emulator for it, if anyone is on a mac and needs a n64 emulator sixtyforce is so far damn good.

 

I don't have an xbox so I'll have to go with an emulator. On windows I have used Project64 with some success.

 

from what i heard the xbox version is not as good as original so emulator all the way!

 

man, i wish microsoft never bought rare, they could be making some great games now. imagine a sequel to jet force gemini!

Buy a used (broken) 3DO and cannibalize it for parts (hopefully the gear is not broken either)

Or do what you know you wanna and break that broken piece of shite into a billion bits and put it out of it's early 32 bit misery!

Rakugaki Showtime: Treasure / Enix game that was pulled from shelves shortly after its release (1999) due to a 'falling out' between the two companies. Probably the rarest Treasure game (and one of the oddest):

I still have 2 copies of Final Fantasy VII. 1 original and 1 greatest hits.

 

I also have The Document of Metal Gear Solid 2. Which isn't really a game.

That's really cool - love the art style/concept on the cover too!

anyone got a copy of Radiant Silvergun?

I have a GC copy of Ikaruga, that's as close to Radiant Silvergun as I'll get.

 

JR, ignore my Bluetooth suggestion, I blatantly misread your comment.

probably Dragon Warrior IV for NES

 

I have all the NES ones and VII for Playstation too (which is maybe rare I dunno? All I remember is it's LONGEST GAME EVER like it was the first one in the series to record your playtime and I racked up 100 hours at least?)

$80 MIB not a lot but it's something

 

 

got Rez a few years ago including the Trance vibrator

 

Never played the follow up game Child of Eden, is it any good?

 

And not sure if it counts as rare, but also the "Bowie game"

Graphically aye, gameplay wise aye - but there's just something that doesn't site right with me. It's like the younger J-Pop sibling of the introverted older Rez

I do not own it myself, but a friend at work does, among other rare shmups (Border Down for the DC for eg). I have seen it, I have played it, and I am terrible at it.

I used to own a sealed Saturn Copy up until 2006 when I eBay'd it. Saturn has the best Shmup games, my favourite being Battle Garegga:

 

 

^ Also has one of the best soundtracks I've ever heard in a game.

you beat me to it. After losing 2 discs in my Panzer Dragoon Saga box, this remains as the rarest game I own in complete form.

yes

 

 

rarest system I ever owned was the PC-FX, which was the 32-bit sequel to the PC-engine / TG-16

I always wanted an FM Townes Marty so I could have an arcade-accurate home version of Splatterhouse...

I was told that Tetris DS is rare. I also have some special edition of the metroid trilogy for the Wii.

I do. I only have Virtual Wario and Mario's Tennis.

 

I have tons of games, but the only one that you could truly call rare is Ogre Battle for SNES. Lots of people mistake collectibility for rarity. Just because something is collectible doesn't mean that it's rare, it just means that people want them for whatever reason. Rarityguide says Chrono Trigger is rare, but it's not. People just want it because it's a really great game.

 

I have plenty of collectible/highly-sought after games.

It amazes how much Chrono Trigger has maintained its value considering it's available pretty much everywhere.

When a game is good, it's just good, and everyone wants it. It's available in all kinds of formats, and the definitive version is the DS one, which is pretty easy to find as far as I know, but everyone wants the SNES version.
