    All of my best NES and SNES games got sold in college to support my then girlfriend. Then I found out she was cheating on me.

    I have several. Mighty Final Fight, Zelda (Sealed), Bucky O'Hare boxed, Chiller boxed, Donkey Kong Math, and many others. I have over 650+ NES games and the entire 721 North American list of the SNES, 296 N64 games, 1,275 complete Wii list and 165 complete Wii U list of games. However, I only have 160+ Gamecube games.
    In total, I have 44 complete console libraries, including the XBOX, Dreamcast, CD-i, Atari Jaguar, Jaguar CD, Fairchild, and many more.

    My most expensive NES game is Gargoyle's Quest 2. Excellent series.
    For SNES I have some that are more expensive like Dracula X or Wild Guns, but my days of shelling out over $2-300 on games is over. I own the entire NA Castlevania collection. I'm officially good. Most I bought as they came out from GBA on but some entries in that series were stupidly expensive.

    No idea how expensive it is but the rarest NES game I have is a blue Chiller cart. From what I understand gray was the standard cart color for Chiller.

      Totally agree. I don't see the purpose of a sealed game and some of my friends do. As long as it's the native rom board, I'm 100% fine with damaged lables.

    With you holding Super Mario Bros. 3 in the video icon; I'd be more likely to purchase one of those hangable wall posters of the North American front box art. One of my big favorites when it comes to North American box arts.
    Then, later on have physical copies of both the Super Mario All-Stars version and re-purchase Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros 3 (although for the later I do have the digital Wii U virtual console version with the e-reader levels).

    Loose price my best game is probably Dragon Warrior 4 currently around $121 according to Price Charting. I have Dragon Warrior 3 CIB which goes for a good chunk of dough (but really, am I going to sell it)? I still have Metroid CIB which I got FREE back in '86 or so (SMB didn't come with my NES), so they let me choose a free game. I heavily regret selling my copy of Ninja Gaiden 3, I still have the box and manual, but no game 😮
