Good video Aggie. Top 10 lists are always fun. I should think about diving into some top 10 lists as well. Anyways, good list. I think i have herd of most on the list. but i also like reading on video game history as well.
Thanks for watching! Panic Restaurant and Zombie Nation were two that I’m really happy to have discovered and it’s a shame they are so expensive; Cheetahmen II on the other hand…. Yikes…
Food/Chef games. The only one I like is "Out to Lunch" 😅 What's your thoughts on Out to Lunch? Out of the two, I only played Flintstones Rescue. I had a blast with it.
I have never played "Out To Lunch"! Looking into it, it definitely looks like something that I would enjoy. I will make sure to give it a shot. Thanks for watching!
You mentioned not knowing much about the Turbo Grafx... it was released the same year as the Sega Genesis here in the US (1989). The Genesis however thanks to their ad campaign ("Genesis does! What Nintendon't!") really took off. Turbo sales were not doing as good as the Genesis and ended up going on sale rather quickly. At this point, the Genesis was around $50 more than the Turbo. Lots of kids who wanted a Genesis ended up getting a Turbo Grafx 16 instead because of the price difference. There was a time when the most common systems you would find in someone's home was the Atari 7800, NES and/or the Turbo Grafx 16 (some kids had all 3). Granted, the kids who were lucky enough to get a Genesis loved the hell out of that system. I will also add that "Toys R Us" had a huuuuge NES section, followed by the Genesis. The Turbo section was usually fairly small. Turbo Grafx games were always on sale (as was the system). I'm honestly surprised it lasted as long as it did. NEC had also released a CD attachment for the Turbo Grafx to play disc based games. Graphically, there was not much of a difference... but sound quality/soundtrack was a bit improvement). The holy grail system was the "Turbo Duo", which came a bit later... but it debuted at $299, which for the early 90s was kind of pricey (granted, not nearly as pricey as the almighty Neo Geo... but that's for another discussion). Sadly, the Turbo Duo ended up dying off faster than the Turbo Grafx 16.
@@AggieThunderpaw Keith Courage was the original "add in" game with Turbo Grafx 16 systems.. although that game was not nearly as popular as Bonk's Adventure. They made multiple Bonk games, the one I enjoyed the most was called 'Air Zonk".. it was like a side scrolling SHUMP style game but you played as Zonk. Zonk was supposed to be a "futuristic" version of Bonk.
There were so many of these I've not heard of. Going through the list I had never heard of Zombie Nation but you're right that story for that game is absolute insanity, I love it! Bonk's Adventure, I fortunately got the TurboGrafx game downloaded on my Wii U before the shop closed. I had never heard of Panic Restaurant but as soon as you said it's a Taito game, ah that make sense. Taito games in that era seem to be expensive for some reason. Power Blade II...again another Taito game. Die Hard is MOST DEFINITELY a Christmas movie I agree! Bubble Bath Babes...huh that's a thing huh. Reminds me of some of the Atari...adult games that were made. Flintstones I knew would be on this list, this one is stupid expensive! As I guess every game on here is. Hot Slots, yeah probably much cheaper ways to enjoy the casino. In fact cheaper to go to an ACTUAL casino than play this game, and might get lucky at seeing a REAL naked woman there. Peak a Boo Poker, probably my favorite of the 3 adult games but still there are more thrilling Poker games, although they don't have women in them but hey more family friendly and less awkward if mom walks in the room. Little Samson, AH HERE WE GO! I was wondering on where he fell on this list! Wow at #2! Cheetah Men II, oh no I forgot this game existed. Yeah this game is bad! Great video!
I remember really wamting a Turbo Graphix console back then. Never got one. Is the Bubble Bath Babe farting to make such big bubbles in the bath? :) Little Samson looks fun. One that makes me tempted to find a legal emulator for it. Like the Atari, its weird that the most expensive ones are some of the worst. Good video!
Amazing how much these can cost, but rarity and functionality are biggies. I remember the day when friends and I were driving the city's rental stores in hopes of finding Tengen Tetris, as everyone thought it was the better version (for a while). Loose copies are like $75 and complete sets are $200 at least. But that was from a couple years ago and even then, I can't see it getting more expensive than what's on your list! 😊 The re-releases are great, but - as with long-lost film prints of movies that a collector might share for scanning/preservation - the original material will always hold real, unique value due to significance, especially if still operational. Most cartridges should outlive the console if it's just a pair of rom chips and no capacitors or 0 ohm resistors, etc.
Great video man! Super funny and really well done. Some crazy priced NES games for sure, yikes!
Thanks, dude!!! It’s especially crazy how much those competition carts go for….

Thanks for watching, Viro! I would love to see some top tens from you! I figure I should knock some out; they seem almost obligatory on UA-cam, haha.
I still own my original Little Samson. No box though. As a kid, we tossed those things.
Awesome video! Its crazy to see how expensive some of these games can get. And a lot of times they end up being crappy games with a few exceptions

Thanks for the info! I find the Turbo Grafx insanely interesting, and I will definitely get to covering it in some videos when I get a chance.

What about Stadium Events?
Got me saying "bubble bath babes" now.
Yeah, reading this comment has it stuck in my head again…
Pixel boooooobs! lol. Had one of those strip poker games on the Apple II system. Was a very hush hush operation getting hands on a copy.
