I will site this and use this screenshot in the video (if that's ok with you) doing so will put Ninja Golf and Scrapyard dog at the top of the list for sure.

I couldn't find any CIB in recent sales on ebay, but i saw two loose carts both for about 230, so I think you are probably right. I will update the price to reflect that (i'll make it 460, twice teh loose price) .

That is a very interesting point. I wouldn't have thought about the value of the components of these games being something that might have a factor on their value today.

Pete Rose and Tom Cat are both listed at around 58 on Price charting. Looking at the recent ebay that seems to be correct: The only Pete Rose I could find that was completed listing that actually sold was Wata graded (not that that should matter) and it only went or 58.77: Do you have a source for higher priced sales?

nah. that is just old man hands. before it didn’t work at all no sound no image. zip. here is a better one.

Bought this at a swap meet non working with a torn cable for 50 bucks. Full clean and recap. fixed power cable and it is currently going through its shake down cruise.

holy crap. what a time to be alive, this is great thank you!

just wanted to jump in here and say that the mod you helped me with for my intellivision is still working like a champ a year later. thanks for sharing your knowledge with us luddites.

your comment about pal is interesting I ran into that on intellivision too. my book does not break out the game prices by region. If it isn’t too much trouble could you tell me which titles this might apply to in particular? i would want to note that when i discuss those games. think that would be good information.

for the moment i am trying to avoid too much conjecture, so i am using the 2002 pice guide as a source of truth. I am worried that any price i include for home brew would be viewed as my opinion. however, if someone has a resource that shows historical data for vectrex values I would love to take a look.

Hi everyone thanks so much for all this feedback. I will go back through the titles mentions and update the prices as needed. @sixwould it be enough to list the 2002 prices adjusted for inflation? or is there something i would need to do on the 2022 column as well? I am not an economist.

Thanks for the advice. As it happens the fact that I was using price charting was a big reason that they were criticizing me. At any rate, what I wanted to look at was how the price has changed over the last 20 years. Price charting doesn't go back that far. I am using it for my 2022 pricing. Do you have any suggestions where I could find historical data for the astrocade that wont be considered wildly inaccurate by serious collectors? I apprecaite you taking the time to comment.

OK. Well, thanks for watching. Sorry it wasn't for you.

Yup. I get it. At the risk of making an excuse, I did not want to include a price for a game I didn't have a reference for, but there is no reason I couldn't cite a specific atari age forum member for assistance with research, just as easily as citing Billy Galaxy.

copy that. I would honestly love to make follow up videos and highlight rarities and ephemera from collectors here. Making the focus the rarity of the various classic systems. highlighting the knowledge and expertise and share it with people, such as myself who are not as versed in the minute details of each systems library. For the rest of these series i will add an additional minute to the intro explaining exactly why i am trying to accomplish, detail my sources, clarify that it is not about rarity, and hopefully avoid any confusion or the semblance of me making these videos for any reason other than my own love of retro games and my own curiosity.

OK. well thanks for taking the time to critique it. Guess i have a lot to work on.

Hi. I appreciate the feedback. I just want to start by saying that this was not a “most rare games” video. So any “more rare” games that were not included were due to the fact that that was not the subject of the video. Secondly, I did not ask for anyones input because i was trying to avoid a situation exactly like this where someone says “this is just your opinion”. I chose to use a contemporary source for the 2002 and then to compare that to modern prices via price charting. any missing titles was due to a limitation in the data sets . I made my sources very clear and at no point presented myself as an expert. I am just a retro game fan who has an old price guide. As you say i have responded like this to other commentary. In the future perhaps i will make a “most rare” series and will come back for input. But that was not the thesis of these videos. I will have about six more of those and they will all be the same. prices from the 2002 price guide compared to price charting. in my opinion that is the most objective way to do it. i truly do appreciate all of your comments. I am a collector, but not at the same level as you and I certainly would defer to you knowledge and would be happy to include your insight in a future video that expressly discusses rarity and sites atari age as a source. also, the thumbnail with common games is just because that is what i have on hand. i like burger time…and don’t own a copy of meteorites.

Hi. I have spent about 20 hours putting together this video and I hope you enjoy it. I took a price guide published in 2002 and compared the prices of the most valuable games listed there to today. I wanted to see if the values changed much in 20 years. Let me know what you think. 25 Most Valuable Colecovision Games (From 2002 to 2022)

Thank you. I appreciate that.
