    Seriously, there are some seriously valuable video games out there!



    $33,433.30 Atari 2600 - Air Raid (Complete in Box)
    $13,877.78 Atari 2600 - Red Sea Crossing
    $6,000.00 Super NES - Nintendo Campus Challenge
    $3,606.00 NES Stadium Events
    $3,260.00 PlayStation 3 - Uncharted 2: Among Theives (Fortune Hunter Edition) (Complete In Box)
    $3,208.00 Atari 2600 - Superman
    $3,206.99 TurboGrafx-16 - Magical Chase (Complete in Box)
    $2,750.00 NES - The Flintstones: The Surprise At Dinosaur Peak (Complete In Box)
    $2,381.78 Atari 2600 - CommaVid MagiCard (Complete in Box)
    $2,200.00 Atari 2600 - Air Raid
    $2,125.00 Super NES - Earthbound (New)

    There are literally hundreds of $1,000+ game titles out there. Probably a dozen or so $10,000+ titles, and a handful of $25,000+ titles (I can think of 1990 Nintendo World Championships Gold Cartridge, 1991 Nintendo Campus Challenge Cartridge, Kizuna Encounter for the NEO GEO, Neo Turf Masters for the NEO GEO and Air Raid for the Atari 2600)

    So DO NOT scrap video game cartridges, you never know what you have.
    As a game collector you should be glad tohear some of them get scrapped. That makes the ones you have in your collection even more valuable as the ammount of them in the market decreases. This is the basics of any collectable. The less of something out there the more valuable it becomes.

    On the game cube cables are available for far less than $60. The video cable is the same one that the N64 uses and can be used on the SNES console, price about $2. The power supply can still be had for about $10. Mike.

    Watch the old "fat" ps2 consoles, check out the completeds on ebay.

    "fat" is "in" right now it seems.
