Up through 2012, you could usually find a bare cartridge in the 10 range.

If I have seen a recent sealed copy sold, I will include that separately.

Instead of simply being bundled alongside a standard retail version (like a Rampage T-Shirt Pre-Order offer at Target, Sears and Toys-R-Us) all the items were actually packaged in a larger version of the cardboard retail box.

Obviously, Wal-Mart actually sold many more units than that, but most people threw the boxes in the trash and the even the keychains probably often got tossed aside.

Keep an eye out at garage sales, I suppose).

N64 Games On Snes Classic Manual And The

Of course having the manual and the inserts (which are the same as the standard retail release) and the condition of the other items can factor highly into the overall value of a complete package.

The T-shirt bundle (instead of the keychain and big box) can sell for about 300 to 450.

It is now regarded as possibly the rarest USA N64 release you can have in your collection in complete condition.

You might be able to find some cartridges of this rare release at a semi-reasonable price, but because of the Blockbuster deal, it is especially difficult to find a boxed copy and harder still to find one with the manual.

Back in 2010, when it was king of the mountain, it was only commanding 50 for a loose cart and 120 for a boxed copy.

While it might have had just as few, if not fewer units produced as the Rampage World Tour 2 bundle mentioned above, Tarzan hasnt had quite the demand as Rampage.

From what Ive seen, its typically one figure of Tarzan and then another figure of a different figure that varies randomly.

The figures on their own can often sell for a couple hundred dollars for a pair.

The cartridge was designed to be used in North American kiosks, but all the game text is in Japanese.

In hindsight, it seems like a death sentence for a games success.

But perhaps they didnt have the most confidence in the game and Blockbuster offered them enough cash to soften the blow.

So while the bare cartridges are hard enough to find in the wild, the complete copies are especially a rare find.

Prior to 2010, you could find loose cartridges for 5 or less.

We saw a modest increase between 2010 and 2015, for loose going for around 25 and completes for 250 to 500.

But in late 2016, we really saw it kick into the gear with the overall N64 push.

Loose copies started selling in excess of 100 and complete copies getting into their current levels.

Even though that North American release has those large and fragile jewel cases and the expansive multi-tap actions to boast of, this N64 rarity takes the crown this time around.

The first Bomberman 64 didnt sell especially well, but for some reason, Hudsonsoft gave it another go on the Nintendo 64 at the very end of 1999, just as the console was in its final years (the Gamecube would only be a little over a year away).
