However, they’re still fascinating in their own special way, especially regarding the Nintendo 64.
Collecting for the GameCube is becoming a more and more expensive hobby every day.
Today, we’re picking through the rarest and priciest games.
All values are based onPriceCharting’scomplete price at the time of writing.
When no complete price is available, the loose price will be used instead.
Look at Bomberman 64: The Second Attack, the rarest entry in the series on Nintendo 64.
It must have had leftover US supply and simply used that.
Like many games at the time, it launched in Japan several months before the US.
As such, it shipped out a Not For Resale version of the Japanese game.
Even the International Version label on the cartridge is just a sticker on top of the Japanese label.
This incredibly bizarre variant is unlike any other in gaming.
It’s just the game’s logo on a white background.
It sold incredibly poorly, as one would imagine.
The poor sales are the primary reason this game is so rare.
The title was planned to come out in 2000 but got cancelled.
Why does a copy exist, then?
Are you going to have to empty your wallet, or are you sitting on a gold mine?
It’s so odd to have a game cancelled but still see a release in this limited fashion.
Stunt Racer 64 isn’t the rarest Blockbuster exclusive title on the N64, though.
The same rarity issue with boxed copies of Stunt Racer 64 also applied to Sculptor’s Cut.
Despite launching years before Stunt Racer, ClayFighter is the rarer title, likely due to higher demand.
You’d need some serious money to burn to pay $4,000 for a complete copy.
