Thread is now up to date. Sorry it took so long...typing from scratch is hard. Gonna have to do up a full count of games (minus the "unbeatable" games, which won't count toward the total)...but I'm too damn lazy right now...gotta spend some time actually playing a game this weekend

-------------------------


"It's always amazing to me how some of the most worthless games from a gaming perspective tend to fetch outrageous amounts of money. But then again, it could be said that something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. I'm curious if the high bidder of the $873.04 Stadium Events (cart-only) realizes that it's nowhere nearly as rare as about 20+ games I can think of that sell for 1/10th that amount?  At any rate, I wanted to draw attention to this trend: if people say it's rare, it must be true, and therefore it must be had at any price."

Seeing as I am running it, I figured I should at least contribute something...so I just knocked off Wheel of Fortune: Deluxe Edition. Probably do something else later, but I needed something for the time being

Thanks for making the thread! I've been waiting for this. So far I've beat these:

Captain Commando
Pieces (this game is actually really fun)
Family Feud
The Great Waldo Search (on Expert - this game is ridiculously easy)
Wild Guns
Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers (looks like someone beat me to it)

Now that this thread is up I'll be motivated to do more. I have some pics from beating some of these that I'll post when I'm not at work.

I knew I could beat Power Rangers: Fighting Edition really quick. And I did. I decided to add pictures.

BTW, I'm looking for a clean (non-damaged label) copy of this game. Anyone got one? PM me.

I actually have a spare mouse, but I wanted to bundle it with a Mario Paint cart (since I doubt I can find a home for the cart on it's own).  No pad or anything, just the mouse, but it does have the mouse manual with it.

I finished Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure tonight. It was a childhood game. Really hard at some parts, but I know all the tricks. There is one boss you can literally skip over if you use the hot pepper.

At this point, I think my wife might be getting mad at me. I've spent too much time over the last two days playing games. I might have to slow down.

Do they work fairly well without the pad? I haven't used one since back then. If so just shoot me a PM with how much you'd want for it shipped to Ontario (N3R 8A1).

I don't see Natsume Championship Wrestling on this list. Is that an oversight or am I missing something?

I can't say for sure, but it should work okay as long as you have a hard flat surface.  All it is is a piece of plastic

I'll PM you in a bit though, my team is playing right now so my head is in a hockey game at the moment

Not really sure actually.  I just copy/pasted from the previous years, so it may be an oversight on my part, or maybe it's missed somewhere (if it was listed as a different title or something, I dunno).  I'll add it to the list when I edit the thread (probably during intermission ).

Most were short games, and three of them were done recently...as in not the day he posted.  Anything from January 1 onward is valid.

Like Wizard said...I had three beat already coming in and the other games were pretty short. I beat the Power Rangers fighting game in like 20 minutes. Pitfall took some time though, but I still sailed through it fairly fast - I owned it as a kid.
