What Rare RPGS do you own? What do you have in your collection?

[NintendrCkolc]

Recently (While I was banned) I started getting into collecting rare and hard to find JRPGS for the PS1 and SNES. Id always been interested in starting a JRPG collection but never really had the money or means to do so. Now that ive found an awesome used game store in my area I've been expanding my library and self-inducing erections at what ive been able to find in the last 2 trips.

Unfotunately i'm plagued by green labels (Or greatest hits versions) in regards to the PS1 RPGs ive been buying. However, I found something that ultimately had me shoving tissues in my underwear and that something is Lunar: SSS Complete.


(Note: My ugly basement floor)

The game originally came out with 4 sets of discs. Each set had different art on it and upon research of this art I managed to obtain the rarest of the 4 sets. (The Demon magician/3 female trio) Not sure if it adds any value to it. Anyway I picked this gem up for a mere 15 dollars and in my eye it was a steal. Its a shame the original cardboard box, cloth map, and Hardbook are missing but even so Im extremely happy with the find.

I also have in my possession

Chrono Trigger, SNES  (just the loose copy.. No box )
Chrono Cross (Greatest hits )
Final Fantasy Chronicles (Black label)
Legend of Dragoon (greatest hits)
Breath of Fire, SNES( With box, map, monster stats)
Secret of Mana, SNES(Loose copy, no box)
Final Fantasy II, SNES(Another Loose copy)
Final Fantasy VIII, PS1 (Greatest Hits)
Final Fantasy VII, PS1 (Black Label, Missing the damn manual, Interesting note: First Edition copies had a Misprint on the back. If you own a copy and the misprint exists in the word "MasterP ece" you're a lucky prick.)
Final Fantasy IX (Greatest hits)


other games in my possesion that arent rare at the moment but could be in the future:
Xenosaga 1, 2, 3 (Especially 3)
Rogue Galaxy
Star Ocean Till the end of Time
Tales of Symphonia
Lost Odyssey
Disgaea: Hour of darkness
Ys: Ark of naphistim


Desperately looking for:
XenoGears
Grandia I
EarthBound (Even a loose copy without the box and book would be an orgasmic find)
Final Fantasy 3, SNES
Breath of fire III, IV
Suikoden I, II
Vagrant Story
Anything tales of
Anything Atlus (Persona 1, 2 is worth up to 400 on ebay if sealed.)
Lunar 2
Super Mario RPG

(And yes, I know FF7,8,9 arent exactly rare but they're still sought after so they still have value regardless of rarity.)

Oh and its not an RPG but A PS1 game by the name of Einhander is something else id love to get my hands on. One of the few Obscure Squaresoft titles on the PS1.

Well... the only real RPG I have is Chrono Trigger for DS. I wish I had a copy of EarthBound as well. I have been also looking for Final Fantasy VI Advance.

I don't play to many Gradius Esque games but Einhander was badass. I'd love to play it again.

Since when can data be rare?

I know! It was one of my favorite games before I gave it away.

Ebay some of the games ive mentioned.. Also gold carts of Nintendo World Championship 1990 for the NES goes for upwards of $10,000+.

[EtchASketchClock]

All I got for RPGs is Super Mario RPG.

[Thunderbolt]

only real psx games I have are tekken 3, rollcage stage II, the next tetris, space station cilicon valley and worms armaggedon

I do have some copys including einhander and vagrant story

[buttplug]

Good RPGs are never from Japan.

I dunno, is Final fantasy 8 for the PS1 a rare RPG? It doesn't have this 'greatest hits' label.

Assuming the case is in decent condition (no cracks) and the manual/mini strat guide is still in the case then you might have something. 8 is not exactly RARE but a black label is not easy to find and is very much sought after. Keep it in good shape!

Personally, I wish my copy of 8 was a black label. Greatest hits editions are ugly.. nasty chrome discs with a black and white manual and eww.

[Asshatclock]

Final fantasy VII (I think its pretty hard to get by these days)
Symphony of the Night
Megaman Battle Network 2 (I never ever found any of these in the stores)
Breath of Fire III
Breath of Fire IV

I guess all the other ones I own are pretty common.
I plan on importing Earthbound and/or mother 3 someday.

[GameSlave]

The only rare RPGs I have are EarthBound, Mother 3, and Super Mario RPG. I also have a copy of Einhander.

I plan to get Final Fantasy 2, Final Fantasy 3, and Chrono Trigger for the SNES eventually. I'm focused on fighting games right now though.

Fatal Frame- PS2

Legend of Zelda- NES

Zelda 2 The Adventures of Link- NES (still in box)

Metroid 2- GameBoy

That's about it.  Not much of anything really.

None of these are RPG's but Fatal frame is indeed hard to find.

Goin for over 60 dollars on ebay. Pretty good for a 10+ year old video game.

Does anybody own Suikoden II?

[AMPEEEM]

Chrono Trigger, Earthbound, FF7, Secret of Mana, FF6, Super Mario RPG

[TequilaClock]

Btw, I know what this thread is about, but I can't help but imagine Rareware making some RPGs

PS: I got Hotel Dusk Room 215 which is rare for the deal the reprints have a gay orange GTouch banner on top, and I got one without.
