Recommended Posts

Is there a rarity guide for 2600 game manuals, if so where, if not then what would you say are the top 25 rarest or hardest to find 2600 game manuals and the fair market value to purchase them??

As with games, rarity doesn't always dtermine value. For example, I'm fairly certain chase that chuckwagon instructions would sell for far more than Boing! instructions but each are just as hard to find.

 

I even collect instruction variations. Obviously, instructions for all of the rarity 9 and 10 game are the harder to find than the games themselves. Having said that, here's some instructions that I think are really hard to find that aren't 9's or 10's:

 

Black and white Ram it instructions on thin paper.

Panda instructions

Konami instructions

Up n' down

Chase the Chuckwagon

Tomarc the Barbarian

Motocrass Racer

Subterranea

Guardian

Track and Field

Silver Label Gravitar instructions

The black and white variations of Moonsweeper, Demon Attack, and Atlantis that came with blue labeled carts

 

As for price, I've seen the above instructions sell for $15 to $50 but most sell for closer to $15.

 

Rarity 9 and 10 instructions could sell for anywhere from $30 to $300 depending on the game.

I've got these that were not too easy to find:

Boing!

Asterix

Cosmic Corridor

Busy Police (I actually got lucky on this one as it came in a lot of manuals that I'd won, but it was inside another manual)

Springer

Track & Field

Up N' Down

 

I'd have to say that most of the Zellers titles are hard to find manuals for. :ponder:

I've seen lots of Zellers carts over the years (no suprise since I'm a Canuckle-head :D ) but I've NEVER seen any manuals for Zellers games. I wouldn't mind seeing pics if anyone has them.

They are nothing special really, just a white instruction sheet. It's written in French on the other side. 8)
