Rare Video Games Auctions, Sales & Pricing

Guess what? The NES version of Duck Hunt you’ve known your whole life was actually a remake. The first and original Duck Hunt game was released by Nintendo in 1977 and consisted of a projector device that flashed orange ducks on your wall. It also came with a light gun, which worked the same way [...]

In my mind, with the release of the Playstation 1 came the birth of the press kit. There isn’t a clear definition of what a press kit is, but most collectors agree that it should at least contain a (promo) copy of the game. These kits are sent to journalists and reviewers to present their [...]

Dr. Retro’s (from www.dr-retro.com) first post here on GameSniped and what else to start with than some rare Playstation 1 games! Sony’s first home console was the first system that got a fair share of limited and collector’s editions. Previous consoles have their odd (and usually very rare) limited editions. But with the PS1 publishers [...]

I like internal employee items, and this is one I haven’t seen before. You are bidding on a Sony PlayStation 5 years of service award given to employees that have at least 5 years of full time work within the company. The base plus the controller weigh about five pounds. The controller is made out [...]

Lamest auction ever.

Surprised I missed this until now. I’m going to quote directly from Game Rave (the go to PS1 Source) on this one: Working Designs created this extremely limited edition set as both an award and promotional item during the 1998 Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3).

Thrill Kill is hands down my favorite unreleased game of all time. It is a four player PS1 fighting game, full of violence and sexual content. BDSM, fetishes, limb dismemberment, and violent special moves like “Bitch Slap” and “Swallow This”. Good tines. A few weeks before shipping, the game was cancelled by EA because they [...]

These are German, but there has to be a Playstation collector somewhere who wants 100+ foreign demo cds for what is currently less than four cents a disc. Auction Here
