How rare is the rarest game you own?

[27ace27]

The rarest game I own is Bank Heist, picked up for 98 cents, rarity 5, and I have no clue how to play it! Share your rarest game, stories behind it, rants, raves, ect!

Officially it is Quest by Sunrise, R8, complete in the box.

[aftermac]

Xenophobe, R7.

 

Coincidentally, Xenophobe is also my rarest 7800 game...

[Wickeycolumbus]

The rarest game I have is a Dumbo's Flying Circus prototype, IMO, a very fun game

[gamerz]

Rarest game I own is Swordquest Waterworld, and we already know how bad the swordquest series is to play.

I have several one-of-a-kind Atari 2600 protos not to mention rarity 10 Atari 2600 CIB games......

Yea right, Combat Demo and proto knowing you.

texas chainsaw massacre, handwritten label.

 

xenophobe for the 7800.

 

frankenstein's monster for the 2600.

 

i don't know about the rarity in terms of scale but they're the games ive paid the most for (outside of homebrews) so far. i collect for fun so i won't pay more than $50 or $60 for a game. if i keep the expenditure in line with the cost of modern games it doesn't feel like a financial investment to me.

I own 18 rarity 9 games. And most of them suck. I do like Rescue Terra I though. Swordquest Waterworld isn't too horrible. And Malagai isn't bad either. Tooth Protectors has a little charm to it. But beyond that, the quality/money spent ratio is pretty bad.

[Zoyx]

My two rare ones are Survival Island and Sword of Saros, both cassettes for the Supercharger. Graded at 8.

[Crazy Climber]

Nothing like an Atlantis 2 with docs, etc.. I think someone here owns that though....hmmmm...let me see....who was that again...

[BassGuitari]

Boing!, R8

 

I don't know anyone else with a MagiCard repro, so I'll include that too.

Now you know someone. I got Magicard and Video Life repros from a fellow AA user.

 

And both games suck. But I'm glad I have them.

Math Gran Prix: Enumerative Combinatorics Edition

Let's see, my rarest official cart (listed on the AA database) is Death Trap(R8)

 

However, some other rare ones include:

 

Kabobber Repro by Vectorman0

Atari 30th Anniversary Cart by Shawn Sr.

Alien Greed by Neotokeo2001

Krokodile Cart by Kroko

 

I consider these "rare" because of the limited quantities.

Magicard, Asterix NTSC proto... about what I have left from the slightly larger collection way back. Plus complete copies of all five Club Atari releases.

[crunchysuperman]

Atlantis II

 

Ultravision Karate

 

Pepsi Invaders

 

MagiCard (x2) - both labels (Commavid & Computer Magic)

 

VideoLife CIB

 

Various rare or unique label variations.

My most rare 2600 game is silver label Gravitar and it's R8. I also have a bunch of 5,6 and 7's. I also had a BOXED Mean 18 for the 7800 that I got for free! But I had to sell it a few years ago when I needed some cash fast.

Pac-Man.

 

Loose.

 

[swlovinist]

I had a secret agent proto that went to the VERY right person

 

I once had a magicard that I traded for several rare NES and Colecovision games(Stadium Events, Q-berts Cubes, Cheatahmen II)

 

 

Currently it would probaly be my boxed CIB Xonox games or some of my limited run homebrew titles.

 

 

 

I bet Rick has good answer for this

I have a signed Pac-Man! Looks like about a 5 year old.

 

Why do I have this feeling that these jokes have been played...
