Sneak ‘n Peek was originally an Atari 2600 game played in and around a spooky old house. Basically, one player (or the computer) hides and the other player has to find them. It’s the video game version of hide and go sneak. Now the game is available on the NES, with a newly released version […] More
There’s a pretty cool and rare controller up for sale at Nintendo Age. To give a background of the controller: At the 1990 Nintendo World Championships, players played on special competition game stations. On the tour, some of these stations had special NWC control pads. These controllers were like a normal NES pad, except the […] More
I don`t think I`ve written about these guys since 2008, when a pair sold for $115.00. These glasses were available from an offer shown in the Nintendo Fun Club News #4 – Winter 1987, predating even Nintendo Power. It required you to send in a coupon, a UPC from the Rad Racer box as well […] More
These turn up a couple of times a year (although less and less), and usually end up fetching over $100.00 for an empty box. Sealed copies are much rarer and while I can`t remember the exact price the last one sold for, it was somewhere between $200-$500. The Nintendo Cereal System was a breakfast cereal […] More
NES Blister Packs are rare, not well known and can fetch crazy prices. There’s a handful of popular games that have easily broke four figures, and I can dig up a few to post in the comments if anyone likes. While we have had at least one American (Canadian actually) Blister Combo Pack, it seems […] More
First party prototypes tend to show up much less frequently than ones from other developers. Internal security and regulations and well as desirability of many titles are probably the main reasons. One seller however, has two up at the moment. One for a Super Mario / Duck Hunt / Track Meet and the other for […] More
We seem to get a couple of these carts every year, and I love to mention them as they’re pretty neat little games and fetch a really nice price. Basically, they are just glorified pirates which were marketed to rental stores. Our occasional contributor Limbofunk has done quite some research on these and their origin. […] More
thethingsifind is another seller who has had some really interesting items over the past year. Current highlights include a Nintendo 1997 Regional Manager Meeting Guidebook. This was acquired directly from a former Nintendo employee. This auction includes an original 1997 Regional Managers Meeting Guidebook. Only available to management at the company, this book was only […] More

This thing is both huge and epic. I`ve seen several NES coffee tables over the years, but I think this is the first one I`ve ever seen for sale. I am selling my first Nintendo Coffee Table I ever built. It took me about 2 weeks to build, its made out of Medium-density fiberboard, painted […] More
Seller stevesvideogameworld has a lot of nice condition PAL NES, SNES and N64 games up for auction. I love PAL stuff for the exclusive releases, but also a lot of games tend to have different (and better) artwork. My favorite is the Boxed NES Zapper, which includes the Small Black Boxed Duck Hunt. Other rare […] More

I`m posting all the current auctions, and admittedly there are some […] More
