    Fucking Beautiful! Must Look!



    Behold. The rarest video game on earth. HISTORY. The 1990 Nintendo Wold Championship CARTRIDGE USED in the FINAL ROUND of the Tournament. PowerFest 1990. What the Wizard alludes to.

    You don't believe me how IMPORTANT THIS IS?

    This is the current price it is at on E-bay

    $2,075.69

    AND THERE IS STILL 9 DAYS LEFT. YES...this will make close to 5,000 bucks. Maybe 10K. Dear god...I am like pissing my pants...I've only seen this once before...and that was in a 1993 Game mag that no longer exists.

    The 1990 Nintendo World Championships was a video game contest for prizes. Players had to play a timed version of Super Mario Bros. (Get 50 Coins), Rad Racer (Complete A Level), and Tetris (Just play for score) After 6-7 mins of play scores were calculated. 90 NWC Gray cartridges were used for the acutal contest and given to finalists as a consolation prize. Shortly after Nintendo Power held a contest for 26 Gold edition NWC cartridges that were exactly the same as what was used in the contest.

    How do you know that this is the original cartridge, and not one of the other 26 cartridges (or even some sort of bootleg)?

    Because I own one of the other 24 (he has one, I have one) others possibly in existance. I also have the Gray one.

    He is missing the box it came in...that is understandable since he was not the original owner. But the last time I saw ANYONE that even HEARD OF THIS was in 1993 as I said, and it was some game reviewer saying he WISHED he had it...

    However, I've been quiet about mine...but since somebody else knows about it...and HAS IT...I guess I can speak up now...damn...it was like seeing a ghost, it was that freaky to see that thing for me.

    Now...I am waiting for somebody to sell the Super StarFox Weekend cartridge...that cost me 35 bucks from the Nintendo Super Supplies Catalog in 1993...I wonder how much it would go for nowadays...

    Am I correct in interpreting that as a joke, Zeo? To my knowledge, Megaman 2 sells for about $12.00, 3 for $14.00, and so on. For the first six games alone, if they were not only unused but still sealed as well, you might get $120 at best, and that seems highly unlikely.

    I really, really doubt it. I don't think those games would be too hard to collect by just keeping an eye on used game stores. The carts TSA is talking about, on the other hand, are rare.

    Right and Wrong. Technically, it was an event called Video Armageddon and they had Ninja Gaiden and the "new" Super Mario bros. 3. It was a game tournament similar to the real one though.

    I was also thinking about appraising some of my old games. I wonder how much my Fantastic Advnetures of Dizzy Gold Cart would sell for (considering it was only available through QVC, if I remember correctly).
