Top 10 Rarest SNES Games

"After the almighty NES ran its course, Nintendo finally decided to step in to the 16-bit ring to take on their rival, the Sega Genesis. The battle between these titans still rages on today, but one thing’s for certain; the SNES has a ton of rare and expensive games. So let's dive into a collector’s wet dream."

Final Fight Guy I got it from my uncle who worked at blockbuster direct from Japan Orange box and all.

Nizulo3946d ago

That's incredible! You sir are a very lucky man :)

TheWolverine3946d ago

wow, i've still got my ninja gaiden trilogy. maybe I should trade that away

Nizulo3946d ago

If it's still in great condition with the box and all, you should fetch a nice little sum :) Hell, even if it's not in the best condition, it will still attract some good coin!

i have my copy of Metal Warrior right over there. ::points:: game only, but it is SO BADASS!!!!!!!!!! Best multiplayer split screen mech game almost period. ^_^;; My friends and i musta played that and Armored Core(later on) about the same.

Hey Nizulo,

Can I just asked what this top ten list was based on? Or how you define rare? Did you look at total copies in print or price value?

I enjoyed the list but where are games like E.V.O and Aerofighters?

Nizulo3945d ago

Thanks for the comment :) I tried to base this article on total copies rather than actual value of the game. My goal with this list wasn't to make it a 100% accurate, but to have fun with it and make it as interesting as possible. ^DV

It was a good read! Thats why I asked because there can be rare games that aren't worth much money, and also games that are really expensive and have a high circulation. My friend had a sealed copy of the uncirculated Speed Racer/Mountain Bike rally 2 pack. He sold it and bought a car if I remember correctly. That thing is mega rare!

Quick thing about Noah's Ark: it's not a "rip-off" of Wolfenstein 3D - it is Wolfenstein 3D. Apparently, the game's developers might have made it as a middle finger to Nintendo. Watch the Angry Video Game Nerd's take on it for the specifics: http://www.youtube.com/watc...

A Matter Of Trust: What The Game Industry Should Do To Win Gamers Back

Skewed and Reviewed have written an Opinion Piece covering issues in the gaming industry, how current issues were issues years ago, and what can be done to help restore consumer trust.

Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.

Garethvk5h ago

How do you know if you agree with it or not unless you play it? Which without conventions forces gamers to rely on trailers. Perhaps Demos should be made more frequently. But companies need to do better as well.

anast5h ago

Wait until release. Watch Gameplay. Exercise patience.

Garethvk5h ago

But is that not what they have now? Tons of gameplay or are you talking about watching actual gamers play it versus the trailers and streams? The big issue is that some companies pay streamers and influencers and they create content but for me; that is hardly a fair, unbiased, and factual look at a game.

Get rid of the suits in the industry and job done!!

Garethvk5h ago

They usually are attached to the money sadly. It would be nice to have gamers in charge but you have so much money invested that business people are needed. Hence the issue; you need people who know business but are also gamers who know have an eye to the community. It sounds simple in theory that if you give gamers quality games that they want to play; money will be made. But that is not always so.
