Do you have any rare/collectible game systems?

Post by BoringSupreez »

Many of us (in fact, I'd say most of us) have games in our collections that are either considered rare or at least in high demand. Panzer Dragoon Saga, Shantae, Earthbound, and the like. But I was just thinking: none of my game systems are anything besides standard release. Do many of you have limited edition consoles, or have most of you focused primarily on the games like I have?

And if you have anything real neat, a picture would be welcome.

Closest things I have that'd count I think would be my gold N64 and my boxed Power Base Converter.

I have the black sports dreamcast.

which isnt exactly rare.

There are much more limited edition dreamcasts in Japan.

I'd say my Blue Developers PS1 that I got a few months ago is much rarer.

Are 3D0's rare too? Not many out there as much as they used to be.

For consoles I have a Sega SG-1000 Mk II that works great! I'm still trying to build its library but it's so damn hard to get the games mailed here.

As for games, Magical Chase for the GBC, Nightmare Circus for the Genesis, Action 52 for the NES & Genesis, Tetris for the Genesis although it's a repro and idk if Ninja Golf and Midnight Mutants for the 7800 count.

*I have a more rare games on My Notes section in my facebook.

Probably the TurboGrafx-CD.

I bought it with a TG16 and 11 games.

A couple of years a ago, from a thift store, with 11 complete games, the TurboTap accessory and like 6 controllers.

For $60.

There was actually two TG16-CDs in that bundle.

@TEKTORO no Apple pippin? ;)

can't say i've ever even seen one personally though. My "rarest" system isn't really rare, it's just arcade hardware (Sega NAOMI).
