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

These people exist.

When Avengers Hulk LE pinball came out I went over to check it out at someones house. They spent the whole time telling me how these were going to be the "next Tron LE" and shoot up in value.

I was allowed to play it exactly once which since it was setup like shit lasted 2 minutes.

Punchline is that machine value actually tanked pretty hard, I think they go for way less then new now.

What a douche.
 
My list:

4 player Warlords
Gauntlet
Mad Planets
I Robot
Discs of Tron
Lasers

Note- I love most off these.. but the price of game offset by its fun and the space it takes up..
 
Misunderstood the topic.

Major Havoc.
Quantum. It's fucking terrible.
Spy Hunter.
Journey. It's terribad.
Targ. Ugh.

Tron is my favorite game of all time. I still remember seeing it for the first time in the lobby of the movie theater right after seeing the movie. I was 10. There was a dozen kids standing around that game. My dad put me on his shoulders so I could see. Later when I saw the game at my arcade for the first time I used all my quarters on it. A fun way to enjoy to game is to challenge yourself to beating some of the higher levels. Recognizer level anyone? There is a pac-man-esque trick on that level. Later lightcycle levels are awesome too... I like getting the "bit" on the spiders level and waving goodbye to people as I go up the MCP beam.

I find Journey fun as well.

Maybe I'm just easy to please. : )
 
Everyone had different experiences growing up, some titles mean more to them than others - just like music. Certain games make me remember certain times, locations, friends and the fun things we did growing up.

It would make a really boring hobby if everyone liked the exact same games.
 
Donkey Kong's with Steve Weibe plaques. Personally, I wouldn't pay more than 5 grand.

(Come on, it's a kaneda joke. Don't be mad, its what I do!)

careful man.. I think thats two mentions recently.

Like Beetlejuice after saying his name 3 times he will appear and start blathering on and on about how much a Wreck it Ralph is worth.
 
any 4 player konami quarter muncher. TMNT, Simpsons, whatever. TMNT boards going for > $400 complete games over 1k.

Having said that I am likely refurbishing one soon...I am a f.ing mess.
