It is really hard to find cursed mountain's limited edition in shops but it is really easy and cheap on internet

Sid Meier's Pirates can be found for $12 new. albeit Ive never heard of the game, you sure its only 53,000 copies printed?sarentack

You can find the PC version anywhere, the Wii version however is a significantly harder find.

What would price have to do with anything? :P The only reason a rare game would be priced higher is if it was in demand, theres not really any reason for the Wii version of Pirates to be in demand, its just a rare game :P

Ohhhh you mean from like a collectors standpoint, my bad, yeah Pirates is a pretty crappy collectors prospect :P It's just a port of a pretty old, albeit awesome, PC game :P

Man Hunt 2 anyone? game was really fun imo

I picked up my copy of Prime Trilogy at Best Buy in July of 2010 for $20. It was the last one I ever saw on a shelf in any store. Lucky me, lol.

It is called buy online.

Most of the game listed can be bought on amazon new for under 20 bucks if you're ever having trouble finding a game amazon can be a great tool!LasPlagasHope

You are right. I think fire emblem still costs a pretty penny, but most of those games are like $20 new and like half that price if you buy used.

Another one to add that may be more rare than onepiece is F1 2009 which was gamestop exclusive.

The funny thing is that the CSI Games for the Wii are actually quite hard to find.

I picked up Metroid Prime Trilogy for £20 in Game in the UK. I picked up LKS for £5 too, was loads copies month ago but theyve filtered out now. Having trouble finding SIlent Hill, ive only ever seen one copy.

Mad Dog Mcgree was a pretty hard game for me to find. I finally got it at a Hollywood Video store closing sale.

try asking the store to ship in the games you want. it worked for me

There is two copies of Metroid Prime trilogy new and sealedsitting on the shelf at a local department store for $49.99 each.

Is this really the rare gamestop exclusive version?

I waited till it ended and put $45 on it and seems complete.

its Formula 1 2009 for the Wii.

[QUOTE="Los9090"][QUOTE="sarentack"] before I even gave looking for rare titles a 2nd thought, I would see Trilogy all over the place myself. I am still seeing Fire Emblem around though sealed and new in Wal Mart stores. Now all of a sudden its $55 unless you manage to snag a copy from gamestop.sarentack

Err, isn't fire emblem an RTS? What does that have to do with mMO's like Wow and EQ at all??? :?

RTS is different from MMOs, its the hack and slash that got old to me.

so far in obtaining Metroid Prime Trilogy, Onepiece unlimited adventures, and F1 2009.

This is the values I paid for them used and complete

F1 2009 Formula 1 - $48

Metroid Prime Trilogy - $55

Onepiece Unlimited Adventures - $45

Although with all 3 coming from Ebay, these prices vary a good bit in what people pay for them, Ive seen people pay up to $60 for onepiece with case art and manual, then I see some people win the auction and pay as little as $41 for it. F1 same way, Metroid Prime Trilogy seems to be the one that rarely goes under $50 used though and yet it seemed more common than F1 and Onepiece.

Those 3 games seem to be the holy grail of Wii games in terms of rarity IMO, I need to know if more exist like this.

I thought I'd add my two cents to this topic as it's something I've actively research for the past couple years off and on...

In terms of true rarity (essentially short supply) and taking some account of the general resale price for new or used copies (whether it truly sells or not), it seems to me that these would fall in the scope of top ten "rare" games for Wii (at least in the North American market)

1. Fritz Chess
2. One Piece: Unlimited Adventure
3. F1 2009
4. Rune Factory: Frontier
5. My Horse and Me: Riding for Gold
6. DragonBall Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3
7. Guilty Gear XX: Accent Core Plus
8. My Horse and Me
9. Dokapon Kingdom
10. Beyblade: Metal Fusion - Battle Fortress

Notice Nintendo games aren't included because while they are OOP and in demand, the release numbers were relatively huge in comparison to these titles. Try finding a copy of Fritz Chess tomorrow and don't tell me you didn't pay nearly $100 for it (if more). That game is a nearly impossible find. F1 2009 was not only a Gamestop Exclusive, Gamestop barely carried any copies when it did come out. I'm surprised the PSP version isn't worth as much, but PSP collectors aren't up to the level of the Nintendo crowd I guess.

RTS is different from MMOs, its the hack and slash that got old to me.

It isn't a Real-time strategy game, either. It is a turn based strategy RPG that has not hack and slash elements, other than the fact that they use swords in both games. Are you sure you are thinking of Fire Emblem? Check this gameplay movie:
