    Cooking mama 2, in france the first available retail copies were bugged with a glitch that freezes the game right after the first level, so it was being recalled everywhere, used to work at a gameshop back then and we did send them all back. This alone must make it the rarest DS game to have now, The first edition of Cooking mama 2 with the glitch in it, i think it was on store briefly for like less than a day, the copies must have been destroyed by the publisher, if anyone can back some info on this maybe?

    For real: If you ever get a chance to play Dokapon Kingdom (PS2/Wii) with four friends DO IT. At least, if you don't mind potentially losing them as friends. Dokapon Kingdom makes Mario Party look like tiddlywinks, in terms of being a potential friendship-killer. It's absolutely insane.

    I absolutely love "Solatorobo: Red The Hunter", which I still have in my Nintendo DS library, and it is perhaps the only JRPG-style game ever made in which the characters are anthropormorphic animals instead of humans, which is probably the reason why it remains one of my favorite games on the console, and I really wish other companies that work on RPGs like Square-Enix would design games with those kinds of characters as well! ^^

      It is a good game for the Ds, it doesn't hold up great today due to all the loading, but it did do abit more then ACWW, where you can fly to an Island to fish. There mystery missions to do to but you have a play often enough to get the effects. There hidden characters, like making everyone believe in a fairy and well you meet a fairy. It really good for a ds game considering how much they crammed onto it. I couldn't personally get into it due to the spells and everything cost tones and it took forever to build money unlike animal crossing. So its a hit and miss. In the UK the game worth £30

According to many, they are actually worse in that regard than the Mario Party games, and Mario Party is NOTORIOUS for killing friendships en mass.

    I believe the NTSC version of Animaniacs was cancelled due to the Bad press in Europe. I mean think about it. There's no real point in shelling the game out if it got slammed hard in another region. Yeah they could sell it on shelves but at the same time printing those copies would be expensive. And consumers who buy the game wouldn't be paying that much to even cover 1/4 of the printing cost. To the company it was essentially a failed project so they decided to simply stop production, call up any store or even any Warehouses they had that kept the copies and told them to return everything. Happened a few times with other games so who's to say it didn't happen here? There's been some games that got made over in Japan that got panned by critics which HAD an English translation and all but because of the low scores and failure over in that region, the translation and shipping was scrapped making the game or even series a Japan or European exclusive.

    My guess is that NTSC Animaniacs DS is the Honus Wagner Card of video games - it was released, or at least manufactured, but recalled so fast or even before official launch that only a few copies of it slipped through. If it was recalled before release, there is a chance that some store somewhere didn't send back its shipment and kept it or sold it. Had the recall been post release, then for sure at least a few copies exist somewhere.

I think that is why they always pass my radar and I have to collect them way after there release date. Here's to hoping I find it in a Moving Sale or Yard Sale. No way am I paying for that game right now on the market. Thanks for the info as the DS is my travel buddy now a days. Use to be my GB Advance SP, but it recently broke, so now I go with the DS.

    After a good amount of research, I thoroughly believe that the Animaniacs: Lights, Camera, Action video game was canceled for a release in America. So, let's see how I did. First, I had to find out the main differences between PAL packaging and NA packaging. That resulted in a difference in ratings (PAL had a Pegi rating, while NA had the ESRB). I conducted a search from there, following Nintendrew's steps along the way. First, I looked on third-party selling sites such as eBay to start. There, I found that most, if not all of the copies that were being sold were PAL copies. This resulted in a dead end as Nintendrew had mentioned. Next, I decided to continue my search on first-party sites such as Amazon and Gamestop. There, I noticed that both were selling different cover arts for the game. The main difference between the two is the logos, where the PAL version has Warner Bros, Nintendo, etc, the NA version only has the logo of the publisher, Ignition Entertainment. While Amazon was selling games with the PAL cover, I saw that Gamestop was selling what can be assumed as the NA cover art. Finally, I looked on Nintendo's website and the ESRB to confirm some loose ends. On ESRB's website, I found that there was an actual rating for the NA title, but not much else. When I looked on Nintendo's website, I believe that I found what I believe to be some sort of divider between released and unreleased. There, I found out that the cover art for the game matched the one that I found on Gamestop, but also that there seem to be either a lack of production of the game or just a flat out cancellation of the release. When looking at release titles for the Nintendo DS, I was able to find the game, but no way to buy a physical copy. I thought of this a confirming point but soon found out that other games also had this lack of physical copies. This story, of course, has many twists and turns after all, with some collectors on Reddit explaining how a NA copy of Animaniacs: Lights, Camera, Action is actually real, but didn't find enough physical evidence to base my conclusion on it.
    Therefore, I think that due to a dwindling fanbase and a horrid review score, Animaniacs: Lights, Camera, Action was canceled before release. Thank you for reading, and I hope this satiates for those who were wondering about what happened.

    I've been waiting for this one! In part because I own games I knew would be on this list.
    It's my understanding that Shepard's Crossing 2 is so rare because it was only available to purchase directly from its US publisher's website, said publisher being Graffiti Entertainment. I bought a loose cart for 100 bucks, and it's the most I've ever spent on a single game purchase at once. I genuinely enjoy it, though--I like that it's a little bit harsh, both in difficulty and tone.
    I bought a copy of Magician's Quest when it was new (the day it came out, in fact), and I'm REALLY glad I did. I actually liked it better that Wild World; I loved its fantasy theme, its music, and the spell system letting me feel like I had more control over the world (like choosing the weather). Every so often I'll see this discussion: "Are there any games like Animal Crossing out there?" And I hate then whenever I bring this up, it's with the caveat that it's really expensive to purchase. It's my understanding that the sequels moved away from the AC formula, but they only released in Japan.
    You know what game I'm surprised isn't here? Avalon Code. I had a devil of a time hunting down a copy, and they were all pricey.

    • @Akechi_The_Phantom_Detective
      @Akechi_The_Phantom_Detective 5 лет назад +1

      You're almost spot-on about Shepherds Crossing 2 there my friend. I'm not entirely certain why but Graffiti decided to release the game exclusively via Amazon which was a large contributing factor to it's rarity, they certainly aren't the only company to have done this but by the time most gamers found out about the game (an incredibly difficult thing to do as most gaming publications had no knowledge of the release date) the game had sold out. I don't believe it was ever given a second run.
      Avalon Code is also a really funny one because when it launched in the UK it was very rare than at some point a number of copies were distributed in a short time period... and then the game became hard to find again. So I'm not sure what happened there. The game is expensive but I'm not certain it's as rare as some other games on the system like Black Sigil, Dark Spire or other games like it.

    • @Freezair
      @Freezair 5 лет назад +1

      Heh! Thanks for the correction.
      It does seem like Avalon Code's price fluctuates a little bit, and it definitely needs to be a complete boxed copy to command prices like those seen in this video. It's already on the pricier end, though, and if it's not top 5, I wouldn't be surprised if it's top 10.

      @@jonahstoyroom7516 Asterix is HUGE in France. Arguably their biggest comic-book character. If one of his PS1 games got released in Canada, it was probably only released in Quebec. Being Canadian, that's my understanding of the situation.

    Pretty happy to see 2 of my games were on this list. I got magicians quest and solatorobo for $5 and $30 loose respectively, but this was a few years ago.

    Little Red Riding Hood's Zombie BBQ was a fun game. I remember playing it waaaay back in 2008. Someone I knew had it on their R4 card because they couldn't find a physical copy of it anywhere.

    Nah. The number one rarest ds game is the McDonalds ds game. Even tho there is recreations of it for pc, it’s the rarest game on a ds cartridge.

    In like 2004-2006 I had this DS fashion designer game which I can’t find anywhere on the web. The cover had this short haired brunette girl who I think was holding scissors ✂️. If anybody knows what this was please tell me. Btw it was a DS game which I played on my pink DS lite and now I’ve lost it in my house

    I saw a reddit post claiming that there were two NTSC copy’s of this game on eBay in early 2012. The wayback machine is a good idea but captures for two listing may be a long shot
