Quoted from Pinball_Nate:MinusWorlds - is that a shrine to your video games with a candle lit at night - hahaha.....
Uh yeah. What, you guys don't all have these?
Quoted from dirkdiggler:Are they nib or cib?
CIB, I have a bunch of NIB stuff too but these were/are my fav titles. The Castlevania and Kid Icarus are the first release cardboard hangtab versions. Finding those NIB...Well I have been trying to do that for almost 20 years...
Quoted from dirkdiggler:I've only come across d titles nib. If people think pinball is a expensive hobby, try nib nes games. And a lot more rarer.
Yeah that's my background. I've had some pretty crazy stuff. Many A list NIB's including Little Samson, Jetson's, Black Boxes etc. etc. Zelda NES Proto, Socks the Cat Proto which is being released now. Now I just collect stuff from my childhood. I did the sealed NES/SNES stuff for years. My buddy has a sealed CASE of Stadium Events. We were in an article for ESPN the Magazine last year about it...VERY VERY expensive hobby for sure. To the point where I dropped out...too much drama
Quoted from dirkdiggler:Absolutely. Box and manual average 3 to 5x the money then loose carts. And that's average titles. Generally the top loader is a more reliable system with less blinking. Qtip in rubbing alcohol to clean contacts. There's repop labels available now so watch out. They're taking $5 games and slapping labels on them to appear like they're $200 games. A collector friend bought a Flintstones last year for $250us and went to play it and it was skate or die 2.
Check pricecharting.com for values on any video games and systems. Loose, cib, nib prices, auction results and listings.
This is spot on info.
