That looks really weird! :P It's unbelievable to see all the accessories that were released for the NES. Almost all of the accessories were gimmicky and useless. They released tons of contraptions just to move your characters on the screen, and most of them all failed miserably ( *cough* PowerGlove *cough*). The only things you really need is the original NES controller, the Zapper, and ROB(well, if you have patience and play the way it was meant to be played :P) if you want to play all your games. Most of the other things are just crap. :-X

This is a pic of the board from the NA database, mine is essentially the same thing. It has a fami board soldered on a NES board  and some special NINA Chip, its basically a prototype board rather than a different game . Its for the game pyramid

I'm surprised to hear Megaman is considered rare seeing as it's one of the games American guys rave about playing in their childhood, along with Super Mario Bros and Contra. Did it have a small production run or something?

I don't think that any of the Megamans are all that rare, but 1 and 6 are rarer than the others. When people talk about playing Megaman, it seems they're mostly talking about 2, which is considered the best and most common.

The rarest NES game I own, is the lightgun classic "Chiller". Its amazingly fun and usually run about 40$ - 80$ on ebay.

Its very cool isnt it, and bloody.

I grew up playing Chiller in the arcade at my local pizza place.  It's no wonder that video games get such a bad rap...  but I ended up alright!  I wish I could buy that machine, sadly it's probably in a dump someplace.

My rarest games would be:

Guardian Heroes CIB - Sega Saturn (amazing game)
Dragon Force CIB - Sega Saturn
MVC2 - DC and PS2 (waiting for PS2)
FFVII CIB - Original PSX release (don't understand the hype)

I own 1000s of games, but there isn't too much that would sell for more than $50 individually.  Games don't really appreciate too much...  which is good for me because I am a buyer and not a seller.

^^not NES games  ;) lol  A lot of the higher end games do go up in value a TON, esp over the last few years.  You could get a Stadium Events cart only 5-6 years ago for 300 bucks, now they are 1500-1800...crazy inflation.

I bought a whole bunch or rarites lately for the NES. Namely a black cart baby boomer CIB, and a flawless mint CIB Little Samson ;D. Scored a few Hong Kong and Asian version carts as well. Little samson is now at the top of my 5 rare games list.
