Which is a quicker sale/more desirable game and which is the more valuable?

Assume comparable physical and operational condition...

Gyruss or Track and Field?
 
That's actually a pretty good one.

They are damn close in my opinion.

If I could have 1 for free I would take track and field first. I think this could be a 50/50 split.
 
At the moment I would say gyruss although I don't think it would bring in a lot of cash. Probably $200-350. I would say T&F would bring the same money. Just seems the "I want a T&F" trend came and went and there isn't a ton of buzz for the game at tha moment. Gyruss currently seems to have a bit more buzz.
 
Gyruss

Both great games. i believe that T&F apeals more to the masses than Gyruss. More people remember that one so i tink it would be an easier sale to non colector types.

I still want a Track and Field! Unfortunately, they like to tease me from afar (case in point) and $300+ shipping is just a wee bit too much. :(

Good point. It will have to be 'local' sale most likely as people aren't gonna want to pay for shipping unless the game is, dare I say it, 'mint'.
Neither of these are.

That said, they are both very, very restorable (is that a word?) and they are working.

I might be persuaded to transport into Wisconsin a ways as I have something to pick up there but beyond that... probably gonna be a non-collector or other local-type sale.

Yeah, they're both kind of half ass desirable. People that KNOW the games know that they're great, but casual people have pretty much never heard of them, so they don't make the universal list of desirable games... but they're not rare enough to be super valuable to collectors either.
 
My Gyruss has been in pieces in a corner for months now and I just picked up a Track and Field a few weeks ago (been wanting one for a long time). So I have to say that for me (today) Track and Field is the keeper! Im going with Track and Field...but being that it looks like it might go for a bit more than Gyruss....maybe Gyruss might be your best bet for the quick sale.
