themadgenius Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Hello, I own a copy of World Tour Racing for the Atari Jaguar and I was wondering what is the going price for this game? I do see it is a Rare game for the Jaguar. A person has it on Ebay for $500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaguarBrett Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 There are new copies available for around $80-$100 depending on the seller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themadgenius Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 Ok great! Is the game as Rare as this site rates it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+save2600 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Was going to say something to that effect - rarity of 7 must have been based on the fact it was "out of print" for a while. At least here in the States. Songbird is getting his copies from Telegames UK if I'm not mistaken. A game that is currently being produced isn't really rare, is it?

Willard Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 (edited) the AA rarity guide has some of those Telegames releases at 7 even when they were available from Telegames US, it even has some Songbird games at 7 even though they've been consistently available since their release. Most rarity guides that I've seen (AA, DP) are littered with inaccuracies or questionable ratings which makes them pretty worthless imo (they just give sellers an excuse to add "SUPER VALUABLE RARITY OF 7" to their auctions. I'd rather see firm numbers like "number of copies produced / number of copies sold" but of course the people who make these rarity guides don't have this information for most of the games Add to that, that rarity scales are all relative - Jaguar items are like default rarity 6 compared to Playstation games considering how poorly the system sold. Rarity guides don't have an absolute and relative rating scale so often the rarity guide is a poor mix of the two.

Goochman Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Id sacrifice mine for $450 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willard Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Id sacrifice mine for $450 truly a selfless gesture to offer the game to travis for less than he's willing to pay. A fantastic example of someone who'd rather see their game go to someone who will appreciate it rather than scalp for top dollar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+CyranoJ Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Cyrano's unparalleled hatred of Blackout! never ceases to amaze me. LOL Its such a shame. Nice music, ok graphics, good presentation. Zero game. Such a wasted effort (drama included) for all that time invested. Especially given you can write the logic for lights out in under 30 minutes. Would it really have killed them to do that? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorsten Günther Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 (edited) Surely you've experienced a decimal point malfunction... BTW: the engine of that game is based on Lankhor's Atari ST game "Vroom" (matter of fact, Domark's F1 is just "Vroom Multi-Player" with a FIA license - it even says so on the back side of the box): Vroom was originally written for the Sinclair QL (the computer Linus Torvalds first owned), but the QL version is really underwhelming: Edited November 2, 2014 by Thorsten Günther Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
