WispFollower Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 I am just beginning in Colecovision collecting, so I don't know what would be my rarest, but I know some which may be hard to find.. I have about all of the Imagic and Xonox games complete and mint. Wizard of Id's Wiz Math complete in box might be the one I have which I consistently see rated the rarest. I also have all complete Spectravision games like Sector Alpha, Flipper Slipper, and Frantic Freddy. Up n Down, Threshold, and some Sierra Online complete as well. I was told one of my B.C.'s Quest games was a box variation, don't remember which. I've got some other stuff which seems great to me, but like I said, I don't have extensive knowledge on rarity, so I will end it here.

retroillucid Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Oh brother! Here come all the "what is this unreleased cart" questions! Let the fun begin.......... You know how I like to tease people, dont you?, Brother Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opcode Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Mine would be a bunch of still unreleased SGM games, DK, Pengo, Arkanoid... Also found this, I bet nobody here has a copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+nanochess Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Hehe, then I've the rarest of all: an unique cartridge PCB with a buggy Princess Quest, only a single bug that triggers a flashing letter in a corner of the screen, it was detected in the early beta test of PCB over real hardware. I should put a label over the ROM and sign it to make it valuable ... in fact I've got two non-working Colecovision carts where I can put the PCB ... Nah! I'll desolder it to put in a ZIF socket and EPROM to do tests Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youki Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 The rarest i have , is i think Lode Runer. (and may be the way of Exploding foot black belt edition). But i have also a Ghost'n Zombie II prototype cart! done in 2010 , just after the one be released . (In fact it contains all screens that i was not able to put in the one , but i decided to rewrite completly the game engine for the GNZ II and make in fact a different game that i will release in few time ) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RelliK111 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I would say is my Bankruptcy Builder is my rarest colecovision game, as it was a unreleased prototype and the game never came out. As far as I know this is the only cart. Although the rom is out there so people can play the game. Here are 2 more Colecovision games that are super rare: Jeepers Creepers #25 was Daniel Birnvenu's personal copy of the game that he saved for himself. #25 was a special number when this game came out. He made a you tube video about it. Mario Bros 32k Prototype #1 Only Three people in the world have this game! I feel very lucky to be one of those people Yes it plays very different then the retail release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIAD Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Yeah, but if you make a special cart or controller all by yourself then it doesn't count ! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shinju Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 For me, retail game would be Spy Hunter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurfbert Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I am not sure how rare but probably not that common, its not a game, it's my European CBS Colecovision kiosk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I am not sure how rare but probably not that common, its not a game, it's my European CBS Colecovision kiosk. That would rank right up there at the top! Is the Kiosk the same that CBS used in some of their ads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroillucid Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I am not sure how rare but probably not that common, its not a game, it's my European CBS Colecovision kiosk.

virtualvintagepdx Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Dragonfire for the time being... Looking into selling it. Can't play it right now, but it definitely looks fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LynxVGL Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I missed a low eBay Auction for Dragonfire this week. Staring was $9.99 and it never sold! Seller has relisted at $45. Doh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurfbert Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 That would rank right up there at the top! Is the Kiosk the same that CBS used in some of their ads? I have never seen it advertised anywhere and it is much smaller and different from the North American Kiosk. I believe it was used by some game store in Holland but perhaps it is a standard CBS (European) Colecovision kiosk that was in place in many game stores across Europe. The Colecovision is my favorite system so I think it is safe with me in Sweden until now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIAD Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Thanks for posting the pic and indeed, it does look like the one CBS used in Ads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
