Games known for commanding stupid money, that you don't give a sh*t about

With all of the inflated prices of games, I thought it would be fun to list games that are well known to command stupid prices that I (thankfully) don't give two shits about. This isn't meant to insult anyone that likes these games, just some therapeutic fun.

Here's the first five that come to mind...

1) Tapper
2) Paperboy
3) Journey
4) Nibbler
5) Zoo Keeper



Let the slugfest commence!
 
Fine, I'll bite.

Quantum. I love it, but paying 3k for drawing vector circles... Ow.

Tron. Great cabinet, great nostalgia, but lousy game.

I thought you'd be all over Zoo Keeper for some reason.

The 5 off the top of my head:

Paperboy
Major Havoc
Quantum
Thief
Dragon's Lair
 
1) Tapper
2) Paperboy

I could never get into Tapper... too stressful having to manage all the customers. The cabinet is beautiful though.

I played the hell out of Paperboy on the NES... but I honestly don't find the game super fun either. Also great looking cab.
 
Oh, you can keep your red tents too. Especially with those silly 18" monitors.

As a mega Nintendo fan, I want a red tent... but as someone who isn't big into cocktail style cabs and also has a small apartment... I hate that red tents exist. I really want one but I really don't want one.

I guess if I had more space I'd just add it to the collection but as of now, I'd hard pass on one if I came across it. I also already have a PC 10 with a powerpak so I'm pretty good on being able to play any NES game... I mean I guess the red tent games are a bit different but not enough to justify.
 
ok anyone who says tron again is getting banned for a week. :)

any laser disk game
 
This is a rehash of an age-old continuing saga.

In essence, a necro-bump.

Journey and Tapper are my favorites to hate.

Yo, Tombo... THIS is what I was talking about......

Tron. Not because it's a "bad" game, I actually do kinda like it.... but it commands stupid money. In that regard, it's way overpriced.

EDOT, on the other hand.... now that game sucks.

I do agree with you about laser disc games. Those make no sense what they go for.
 
Tron.

4 Atari 2600 mini games with better graphics in a undeniably cool cabinet. All show, no go, no thanks.
 
discs of tron..

maybe if I smoked more weed I would get excited about a crappy game with tons of blacklighting.
