    Ok, so I guess there is only one 1991 Campus Challenge cart that was sold for 20k a few years ago, and only two known copies of the 1992 Snes Campus Challenge. Both are held by some private collector.

They are considered one of the holy grails of video games, especially for NES collectors. The only thing I would consider more rare for the NES than an NWC cart would be a complete in box Stadium Events, and even then not by much.

    Powerfest '94 is the one that always comes to mind when I hear SNES competition. I think there are only two of those left in the wild -- the others were returned to Nintendo after the competition to be used for parts. I think Campus Challenge was the same thing, 'cept a different year. 1991 or 1992, something like that. A quick Wiki lookup tells me that there are only two of those carts in the wild as well.

    $20K seems to be the upper limit of what most collectors will pay for an item. I rarely hear of anything selling for more than $30K, unless it's in a private sale, and even those seem to hover around $18-$22K.

    Whelp, I should probably go finish what cleaning I was doing, then have a shower.

    This sure has been an exciting birthday.

    No worries, I haven't been advertising it that much. Any semblance of plans that I had (go to a bar with a book, order myself a decent meal and have a few drinks) got kind of dashed when my brother invited me over for dinner. So now I'm obligated to put up with the menagerie in their tiny house while making small talk just long enough so as not to seem rude before leaving, parking my car at home and maybe going out for a beer before I pass out and start a new day tomorrow.

    Or I'll just do all of this tomorrow evening before stumbling over to a friend's place to watch The Walking Dead. If I do that, then I can stumble into work tonight and maybe hit on one of the girl's there and see if I can't persuade her to come out for a drink with me tomorrow.

    Same ol', same ol'.

    Thankies. And I bring a lot of this on myself, so it's not nearly as bad as I make it out to be. I'm just cranky.
