Re: Rare NES Game Sells for $41,300 on eBay

Well as of right now, when this first hit ebay there was speculation it was a real SE however, it was questioned whether or not it was infact a SEALED copy. If you look closley at one of the pictures showing the back of the game, you will see a ripple like spot. If it was infact sealed, it would be tight against the box. So this seller could be in for a major hurting if he/she is lying.

@ 16. The story goes like this. Bandai made 2000 copies of the game as an experiment, within one month of being on the market Nintendo bought everything related to Stadium Events. After they purchased the rights to SE and the mat, they destroyed all remaining SE carts (1800 to be exact) and resold them as World Class Track Meet with a new styled mat. So only 200 were sold, and as of now, only one is sealed. Hence why its so rare.

@ #7. sorry your wrong, a Stadium Events by a female seller sold for $13K (not sealed), and a week later a guy who had it when it first came out sold it for $41,300. The stories can be found at nintendage. The guy purchased the game when it came out not realizing you needed a mat to play, he was going to return it but forgot, so it sat in the attic for 20 some years.

Crappy BBC show? Your crazy. Top Gear is one of the greatest shows to hit the air waves. Thank God for BBC America. Every Monday night at 8 is filled with watching Jeremy Clark act a fool. I really hope they can pull off a Top Gear game!

Yes, the catch phrase was annoying. But this was just one of a hoard of awesome cartoon shows in the 80's. Glad to have the box set of this series already. Now lets get my favorite childhood series on there...M.A.S.K!!!

Target audience or not, we need to stop downloading those crappy WiiWare titles and let it be heard we want our VC running smooth again. Only way they will get the point is when their most profitable product isn't being profitable!!!

Still remember my buddy going ape for this game. I could never get into it though. Definitely check it out for old times sake though.
