    I wouldn't consider games that have 20 copies for sale on ebay at every single moment to be rare ^^

    The maximum carnage, you mean the limited edition US boxset ? Yup, that's pretty rare

    Get a Krikzz Everdrive MD and you will have all these games except for Wily Wars (expensive) and Virtua Racer (between common and uncommon)

    Was Mega Man Wily Wars ever released? I'm sure it never made it to cart.

    Of course it did. It was only sold in Australia though, IIRC.

    Not sure about that, firstly because the cover hasn't a rating printed on it (which is compulsory in Australia), and secondly because the game was über rare until an italian seller started selling hundreds of copies of it.

    Mega Man The Wily Wars is NOT an Australian exclusive, it's not even a PAL exclusive, it's just a Megadrive exclusive

    ''The Wily Wars was released in cartridge format in Japan, Brazil and PAL regions.''
    The Genesis version pictured below is an unofficial conversion.

    [​IMG]
    Phantom 2040 box set,
    primal rage boxet,
    time killers boxset
    ecco jr
    daze before christmas

    are AUS exclusives phantom 2040 sold for $900 AUD but also soldfor £166 on ebay.co.uk, weird. Or a ridiculous amount, so will any of the AUS exclusive box sets, batman forever being one of them too.

    Also I don't know why someone listed Spiderman as a rare game, spiderman maximum carnage however IS a valuable PAL game.


    As for rare/valuable PAL games


    Flink
    Normy's beach babe o rama
    Woolworth's exclusive batman forever box set (just sold for £256)
    Samurai Showdown
    Second Samurai
    Shining Force
    Gunstar Heroes
    Phantasy Star (any)
    The Punisher (recently sold for £122, should have gone for more)
    Time Killers
    Ultimate mortal kombat 3
    ristar
    streets of rage 3
    alien soldier
    castlevania the new generation
    mega games volume 3
    mega games volume 2
    ATB tour
    sega sports 1
    the ooze


    There are so many, and so many more which are debatable due to price fluctuation.

    I love the Megadrive but it's pissing me off how rare and expensive some games are.

    Do you have more info on that, never heard of that one before and I've been researching stuff like that for Mega Drive for the best part of 15 years!

    I'm guessing he means the blue box animated series release, not the blackbox game with the same title which is actually Spiderman Vs The Kingpin. I wouldn't class Max carnage as rare or valuable either unless you're talking about the NTSC box set. Spiderman/Venom Separation Anxiety is a pain to get hold of too, it was one of the last games I needed for my PAL set, I ended up having to fork out £100 for it although I reckon if I'd been patient I'd have got it for around £70 :).

    The only game I'd add to the list is Super Baseball 2020, had a tough time getting hold of that one personally, took around 5 months for a PAL copy to show on ebay when I was looking for it :). The Telstar double packs and Aus Double packs are nice little rarities too, I always grab them when I get a chance :)

    Yeah, but the topic is what are rare PAL games, not rare MegaDrive games. Before that Italian seller, I'd only ever seen the game for sale in Australia in a PAL format. I never saw it released in the UK, anyway. If anyone can clarify what regions had it, that'd be interesting.

    Not really. Rarity has nothing to do with current price trends. Rarity is how easy it is to find a copy. If 10,000 copies were made, it's never going to become rarer... unless someone destroys a load of copies, of course. The question was what games are rare, not what games are valuable. There are rare MegaDrive games that don't turn up often, but usually sell for peanuts when they do.

    I've no idea dude I just dug up a picture.

    before posting it I only knew of the EU PAL version, didn't know about a brazilian variant.

    for all I know it could just be a faded blue cover, but perhaps a language variant on the back or the manual, something which differentiates it.

    as for time killers boxset i guess i was pulling that info out my ass.

    i get confused as im sure its one of the games that is sold with a keychain or pendant something like that, but no its not a boxset.


    i know flatuswalrus here has the AUS exclusive boxsets and videos on all of them

    primal rage
    batman forever
    phantom 2040

    i guess the other one is the where in time is carmen san diego, whether exclusive or not it's a rare boxset, which i think he has up for sale on ebay now, may have ended


    True but sometimes you don't know how rare a game is until it's gone from a few copies on ebay to lots of copies on Ebay so for me, still learning about Megadrive games, I can't truely gauge how rare a Megadrive game is until I've seen it on ebay (or not if that would be the case) and therefore is true for anyone, specifically the thread starter, when gaining knowledge on this kind of thing.

    We are taking the assumption that in MOST cases, rare = valuable and vice versa

    see I don't even know about this spiderman game until i saw it there!

    Ebay doesn't always tell/show you everything,

    I did get confused I thought he meant maximum carnage which like you say, is debatable, I just know it's valuable and therefore, whilst not particularly ''rare'' would be the kind of thing which I and the thread starter would look for.

    This is what I can gather, there is NO difference or even a brazilian version. I didn't write it in my original comment and really should have read it before questioning myself.

    it just says it was released there so I'm assuming that's it. The PAL version just released in brazil, not much info come sup apart from what i copied and pasted so it could even be fake who knows

    but one things for sure there are 2 copies of wily wars in that picture, a gain could be a faded cover.


    EDIT: OK so he says there are TWO copies of the european version (same game) japanese version, chinese knockoff, brazilian and american repro, although the numbers don't add up, just check for yourself

    http://retrogamer.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=26485

    I can't find it now but on Ebay (dont know if it was official) was a megadrive game with 4 games on it, bubsy, bubsy 2 and i can't remember the others. weird to see a release with FOUR games on it as opposed to a double pack.

    dude all these spiderman games are giving me a headache >.< xD

    EDIT: ok so it was just a double pack by telstar, the four icons mislead me, dam advertising

    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TELSTAR-S...=&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557


    as for spiderman anxiety separation, so was this a good deal someone missed out on?

    For an obscure reason, the game oftenly comes in portugal in the pal box with a "garrantia sega portugal sticker" on it but with a genesis cartidge and manual. I've seen maybe 20 copies of the game like this on various portuguese websites so I think it was distributed this way there but why ???

    That's a good question... If megaman wily wars was indeed released in brazil (I have no way to verify), that would mean a likely-undumped cart able to run out of the box on US systems.
    Their console mode is English language with 60hz.
