So, I’ve been hunting for this guy for a while.  They simply do not pop up.  There’s close to no information on this release on the internets.  In all of my PlayStation hunting adventures this has been by far the hardest to find.  Super pumped.  It’s in good condition too.  
 

Are you going for a complete PS1 collection?

Suddenly everyone is searching for it.

Vaguely. It was my intent for awhile but I couldnt outrun the rise in prices so I’ve got a bunch but also a long way to go.  I continue to pick up odds and ends as my fancy strikes me.
 

Good luck.  

I feel like I just passed by atleast 1 of those if not 2. Huh.

This was one of the console's greatest hits? Sometimes I question that.

Ready to see that price spike on the GVN chart in a month's time, lol!

Hype Thread

4th Quarter 99 it was a top ten title for PS1. Sold well.
 

Based on what?  There is no previously recorded value for this.  Im not looking to sell and if you can find one, good for you.

 

So how did you find out about this GH copy? Is there complete list form SONY or something?

Speaking of these games, it was my understanding that if a game sold one million units, it became a "Greatest Hits" and was discounted to $20, if I recall correctly. I guess that the few that are super-rare are the ones probably got one print run because they made GS status (think about it as a badge of honor for the publishers) but once these games were shipped, many were unsold/trashed/returned to the distributor.

^ i'd like to see the list too.

Somebody should update the wikipedia page:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gre...

I spent a lot of time on PlaystationAge  . Also it’s listed right here on NA.  
Its not listed on the Wikipedia entry or anything.  I think the only other place I’ve seen it listed as a release is game-rave.

This is one of those odd games where the GH version was actually different from the original version due to a character that had been altered because it was "offensive" in the original version.

Learn something new every day!

I'll have to check the local shops; guarantee they'd be sleeping on this one.

GVN has it listed, though no sales data: https://gamevaluenow.com/playstation-1-ps1/toy-story-2-buzz-...
 

Which character and why? Come on man why ya gotta hold out on us with the actual info?
 

When in doubt about PS1, go to Game-Rave.com

Includes other interesting information.  
 

I believe it was a stereotypical Mexican claw machine toy

Neat.

Agreed, this type of stuff always falls under the radar

humanity needs more batmen looking out for offensive characters.
did someone point out the replacement character is offensive to white blonde guys who wear white hats? i happend to be white, blonde and i always wear white hats, even when i sleep


(thanks for the info btw, i do wonder if the GH version was released in purpose to show that "we have fixed the offensive character, now go f*** yourselves", which could explain why so few copies seem to have been printed)

it's not uncommon for reprints to be harder to find, on ps1 and ps2, ps3 haven't paid much attention. certainly as a general rule they are printed in smaller quantities, if not a single batch like someone mentioned here

i loved toy story 2 on the n64 -- is the ps1 version the same (apart from adjusted graphics)?

I have this game because an ex-girlfriend loved that movie, and I literally just bought the N64 cart on Wednesday because I saw it in the store, remembered the PS1 game, thought my son would like it but didn't feel like going through my PS1 stuff to find it... I guess I have to find it now.

Realistically I'll never run into this, living in Canada. And we have some interesting variants here, but nobody will ever give a shit.
