Now that I just got a taste of posting about my rare vidyas;

What are yours?
And why/how did you end up with obtaining it?

This one is my rarest and most expensive. I have quite a few others that are pricey and/or hard to come by, though.

No video game is rare unless it was never released. A mass produced commercial product can never be rare.

I don't have any at the moment, but I purchased this lot off of ebay for $40 in 2014 or so. Sold Shantae in 2016 for $150.

No ragrets.

It's only worth about $4000 since I only have the game and manual. I keep it because I am too lazy to sell it.

A 100% standard Gamecube with the nameplate swapped out as Nintendo intended to be possible? Yeah, the plate itself is probably pretty rare, but there's nothing special about the system.

I had bought this game on day 1 & it didn't work, the characters wouldn't show, everything else worked, you could even move & jump but your character was completely invisible. Took it back for a replacement & had the same problem, got one more exchange & just gave up.

All Zelda CDi games, and a few GBA Metal Gears sealed in box. Don't know why this MGS became sort of pricey in the US.

There are only a few very rare things posted in this thread anyway, but I think the point is just what you personally have that's somewhat rare - it doesn't have to be incredibly rare by a more objective standard.

I was always good about keeping the games I bought in pretty good condition so I ended up with a lot of CIB games like Bucky Ohare, Mega Man 3 + 4, Kirby Super Star, Zelda, etc. I wish I bought more back in the day. My parents would always guilt me into thinking I was buying too many video games.

I disagree, entropy plays a big part. Eventually, everything will be rare. Whether or not that thing will be valued will be a more significant question.
