    Maybe someone who reads Japanese can tell me what I have here.

    This book was given to me by an Acclaim employee many years ago, he told me it was an internal CapCom document containing concept art for a then yet-to-be-developed Street Fighter Zero.

    The book is black and white throughout and the cover is flat white card, not glossy.

    Anyone tell me more? This is a sample of pages from the book - every character from the game is included.

    Gaming-wise would have to be a copy of the unreleased point-and-click game Necrobius (it's a beta; I received it directly from the creator, Daniel Auld). I've since ripped it and made it available for download, (which, for the record, Mr Auld was perfectly happy for me to do).

    Non-gaming wise would have to be this yo-yo; I inherited it from my Grandfather and it is apparently pretty rare:

    im not really sure if there the rarest things I own but I definatly feel there worth a mention, I have a Complete in box (except for the map unfortunately) Final Fantasy 1+2 for the Famicom Autographed by the sound composer Nobuo Uematsu as well as my copy of Theatrhythm Final Fantasy that I also got signed when I met him.

    EDIT: oh yeah and I just picked up a sealed copy of Diddy Kong Racing N64 version

    ^^ SWEET! :friendly_wink:
    the image above is a bleak reminder of what i truly desire...
    i'd STOMP that blue POS to DUST, post the clip on boob-tube, BASK in the hatred of the cast-fanboys IF i could get a cd32 with the SX-32 PRO outfitted!
    ..
    THAT is much more 'rare' than ANY dc i've seen or known about! (and as a gaming/AV platform, steinberg floyd CUBASE isn't for sega)

    I would say the rarest gaming related thing I own is a copy of the vaguely-limited-release Red Alert 3 PC Premier Edition (only 100,000 made). Mine is #4380 of 100,000.

    Being 1 of 100,000 isn't what makes it rare though, its the fact that its got a personal message on it from Aaron "Apoc" Kaufman, then Community Manager for the C&C series. I got it because at the time I was a leading figure in the C&C series modding community and have a website (www.cncmods.net) and was given a free copy of RA3 because of that. I am still involved with the C&C series modding community (I would say I know more about the internals of Command & Conquer Renegade than anyone outside of the original development team and am the lead coder on a project that has cloned/modified/rewritten a fairly major chunk of the game engine and added a pile of new features) and if they ever release another C&C game worth playing (i.e. one where you pay a single price to get the entire game than another single price for each expansion/extra piece of content/DLC rather than one that involves potentially open-ended spending or pay-to-win) I will likely be involved in modding for that too.

    This, possibly. I've posted a message on another thread asking about scarcity and value

    The rarest things I've got are component cable for the GameCube and PsOne LCD Combo (boxed with manuals).

    EDIT: Oh and I forgot this...

    I have it boxed with manuals too in perfect condition. :)

    Wow, what is this item? A press disc?

    I just noticed it says "soundtrack" on the cover. Still very interesting!
