- slimscane, on 02/11/2008, -2/+71Any article that mentions E.V.O. the Search for Eden, in any context, gets my digg. Most underrated (forgotten?) game of all time.
- The1337Dude, on 02/11/2008, -5/+57Awesome. I still have Donkey Kong Country, and I still have the "Making of Donkey Kong Country" tape they sent to Nintendo Power subscribers.

That's the real box to Mountain Bike Rally/Speed Racer. I own both games already so this sucker is never being opened. - Grimace421, on 02/11/2008, -3/+46EARTHBOUND!!!
- racketboy, on 02/11/2008, -1/+26Holy cow! Thanks for the box pic. I'll put it on the article, but if you don't want me to, just let me know and I'll take it down.
Thanks! - bbqsalad, on 02/11/2008, -2/+26Dugg for EarthBound.
- fadetoone, on 02/11/2008, -3/+25As a masochist, I laugh at you!
- ThEDeMoNKiNg, on 02/11/2008, -1/+21I freaking choked on my cereal when I read that. Are you crazy or something? Why did you sell such an awesome game? Have retro-gamers lost their way?
- racketboy, on 02/11/2008, -1/+19Actually, it would have been the next one on the bottom of the honorable mentions list of valuable games, bu its not as rare as you might think...
- inactive, on 02/11/2008, -3/+20awesome chronotrigger. my bro has that, we used to play the ***** out of it. ct was the only turn based rpg that i ever really liked.
- ZombieSociety, on 02/11/2008, -0/+15Yeah, that's hardly the point, you obvious-understander-of-how-collecting-things-works.
...sorry I couldn't come up with a more creative name to call you. - chingy1788, on 02/11/2008, -4/+16awww I have none of those...
My US cousin has Earthbound - lmulaire, on 02/11/2008, -1/+13Thank you good sir. some site are blocked from work but the digg mirror is not hehe
- jcastillo81, on 02/11/2008, -1/+13Thinking back its pretty funny that my 10-year-old, catholic school-goin' self loved a game about evolution. Now I'm an atheist. Truth that video games corrupt your mind?
- xxA7XxaDdiCtxx, on 02/11/2008, -3/+15Crap, I recently sold Super Mario RPG at a yardsale for $5
- UNL1M1T3D, on 02/11/2008, -1/+12Great article Racketboy. Long live the SNES.
- UNL1M1T3D, on 02/11/2008, -1/+11Favorite game of all time. I will never sell my copy, especially since I bought it for $15.
- inactive, on 02/11/2008, -4/+14*valuable
- joehobbes, on 02/11/2008, -1/+11You have the competition cart? or just the regular one?
- bbqsalad, on 02/11/2008, -5/+14And Halo is over-rated and really not all it's made out to be. There I said it.
- arcooke, on 02/11/2008, -0/+9I still have the video tape showcasing the upcoming SNES months before it ever came out. It was also sent out with Nintendo Power. And the poster that came with it. :)
I don't know how I managed to hang onto that.. I can't even find my damn SNES. - o0joshua0o, on 02/11/2008, -2/+11Halo isn't a SNES title, nor does it belong to the subset of SNES titles one could call "rare and valuable".
- capiCrimm, on 02/11/2008, -2/+11FREE HUGS!!!!
- joehobbes, on 02/11/2008, -0/+9It's probably because the page didn't finish loading for you.
It looks fine for me... - UNL1M1T3D, on 02/11/2008, -2/+11Greatest. Game. Ever.
- kidendless, on 02/11/2008, -1/+10Ah, the old "get coked-up and involved with the Hell's Angels". If I had a nickel for every time that happened to my relatives, I'd be rich enough to...well, get coked up and get involved with the Hell's Angels!
- DryerCombo, on 02/11/2008, -1/+9Mario All-Stars/Super Mario World is about 30 dollars in most stores that know what the hell it is. It was bundled with a SNES System so most people don't know that the cart even exists. Not that rare though, I've come across 3 of them.
- Zapita, on 02/11/2008, -0/+8>>"Making of Donkey Kong Country"
youtube it? :D - amgamer23, on 02/11/2008, -2/+10No doubt about it.
- insllvn, on 02/11/2008, -0/+7So, to put it another way, evolution is real, but god totally called it.
- Step1Mark, on 02/11/2008, -19/+26http://www.duggmirror.com
- MadFistWilly, on 02/11/2008, -1/+8No ***** man, I got Earthbound with the players guide at best buy on sale for $6 when I was a kid... and I had already spent like $12 renting it couple times, lol.
- daemoncollector, on 02/11/2008, -0/+6http://mother3.fobby.net
- AndrewDB, on 02/11/2008, -6/+12It doesn't list the Mario All Stars & Super Mario World combo cart.
I'm surprised by that, they're ultra rare. - rarson, on 02/11/2008, -0/+6Nothing on VHS is worth anything anymore.
- joehobbes, on 02/11/2008, -1/+6It's amazing how much the box and manual can do to the value of these games. Sealed game prices are also insane.
This is a lot like how old baseball cards are worth so much because moms everywhere threw them in the trash.
I would wager that only a small percentage of gamers in the 90's kept the boxes and manuals for their SNES games -- and even fewer are still in good condition.
At least the Genesis had mostly plastic boxes which were more practical for storage. - bonecones, on 02/11/2008, -1/+6I love that game. I can't help but think that this game was an inspiration to Spore or flow.
If any of you have never played it, do it now, you won't regret it. - inactive, on 02/11/2008, -0/+5i have shaq-fu with box and manual, immac.
let's start the bid at, say $.25? - fadetoone, on 02/11/2008, -0/+5Hmm... I still have several of those Nintendo Power preview videos... they worth anything?
- Scira, on 02/11/2008, -0/+5Remember those weird scratch&sniff stickers that came with it? one was like pizza scented, another was supposed to smell like a garbage monster..
- hppypnts, on 02/11/2008, -3/+8Harvest Moon (SNES) came out today on Wii VC for $8 I guess it's not that rare now ;) Some people will always want the original packaging though I guess. Plus it doesn't matter how they emulate it, it never comes out as crisp as the original SNES cartridge game.
- bffoley, on 02/11/2008, -0/+5Oh god, Funcoland. The one that was near me smelled strongly like diarrhea all the time. Then it turned into a Gamestop and the smell went away.
- bffoley, on 02/11/2008, -1/+5Well, the official Catholic line is that God created everything like Genesis says, but since then things have been evolving (which is what God planned to happen).

- loungechair, on 02/11/2008, -1/+5Don't feel bad, when I was a kid I sold my star wars action figures at a yard sale. ORIGINAL star wars action figures from when the first movie came out. I don't know or want to know how much they are worth, but I'd imagine it's more than the handful of change I got for them.
- nastajus, on 02/11/2008, -0/+4Ieatauqacrayons has a point here. WTF i can't read that. Bury his ass.
- FotoGeek, on 02/11/2008, -0/+3I Just finished playing though Super Mario RPG again. Its one of my favorite games of all time, Id never sell it.
