Top 10 Rarest and Most Expensive Nintendo Wii Games

[@pbloo574]

Nice list. The only three I own are Fritz Chess, The Metroid Prime Trilogy Collector’s Edition and Ju-On: The Grudge and I never realized they were this expensive until very recently. Makes me glad I was able to pick them up as cheaply as I did.

[@moonshinegaming]

Nice! I think Metroid Prime Trilogy is my favourite on the whole list, thanks for checking out the video!

[@Binighted]

I bought the Metroid Prime trilogy Steelbook edition for $20 last year. No idea it was such a score.

[@moonshinegaming]

Nice!

[@omegablack_]

I bought it for 60€ and now its worth now is over 250€. The game is also extremely good.

[@BLPBLOG]

Veggy World goes for about $350-400 now. Looks like it climbed to number 1 now.

[@moonshinegaming]

Holy shit!!! That’s a crazy price spike since this video was made

[@lucyloo2228]

Oregon Trail is on the rise

[@jeffmoen8563]

And now it’s back under $200. Crazy video game market

[@nicholassullivan1239]

These's always the modded Wii option for these.

[@moonshinegaming]

For sure!

[@mrpickles6968]

I love klonoa which is such an underrated platform series. I have the wii version but personally I can’t see this being rare now since they released the first and second game in a remaster collection last year. Maybe the gba versions but not the wii version although I’d say the ps1 original would be. I hope namco reboots the series and makes some more games but I highly doubt they will unless the remasters sell well enough to justify another new game.

[@HistoryandReviews]

The original ps1 version sells from $299 to $500

[@MHKeenani]

I’ll never forgive myself for turning down a CIB Klonoa for $7.

[@edwinsvideogames]

I want try Klonoa . Awesome video 😊

[@RetroMediaRoom]

I have Fragile Dreams unopened...guess I'll keep it that way haha

[@moonshinegaming]

👀👀 wow!

[@pepsihabbit]

Great video. Thanks

[@moonshinegaming]

Thanks!!

[@JuanHernandez-sd7cf]

Awesome video and great list but I still feel that you missed out on a few games that should of been there but overall 👌🏾

[@moonshinegaming]

Thanks for tuning in! Which games do you think should have been on the list?

[@newspooiechannel]

For the Wii, I have the Klonoa remake and the Metroid Prime Trilogy. For Klonoa, I was a big fan of the original. After I got the PS2, I tracked down a copy of that one at the local Record Town (music store), which later became FYE [regional chain originating in Upstate NY]... then the two GBA Klonoa games. So it seemed this was the only natural progression. For Metroid Prime... still have the trilogy sealed. Got it right before they started vanishing. I already picked up Corruption separately and the first two on the Gamecube, so I didn't have a need to open it until I was ready to play with the different controller scheme. Well... it's still in "the pile" waiting to be played and who knows if/when that day will come.

[@moonshinegaming]

Klonoa is such an awesome series! Same with Metroid obviously haha, I have a feeling the Metroid Corruption will start raising in price soon, I'm surprised the market value hasn't increased more with Corruption to be honest! Thanks for the support 👏

[@crashers17]

My Wii Metroid prime trilogy collectors edition,is one of my favorite games of all time. Mine is complete and in mint condition. Had offers of over 300 hundred Euros for it,but I'll never sell. Its my favorite collection piece by far!

[@circa2008]

great research!

[@moonshinegaming]

Thank you!

[@mr.tie-rex9577]

Scored a copy of Klonoa for $71 though the case was from Hollywood Video (RIP to all those stores)

[@moonshinegaming]

Nice!!!! That’s a great find

[@mr.tie-rex9577]

@@moonshinegaming For the best I’m going to wait to get Klonoa 2 since they announce the duology for the Nintendo Switch coming out this summer. All built from the ground up, no emulation.

[@alliegrossi4873]

I have none of these games but I definitely want to try the multiplayer version of the Grudge :')

[@moonshinegaming]

Haha the multiplayer mode is good for a laugh, thanks for checking out the video!

[@misterneckbreaker88]

Klonoa on Wii I prefer ps1 version also pricey. I can stare at the box and drift away to my childhood memories

[@moonshinegaming]

It’s such a great game 👌👌

[@abrausedteleport8548]

Found my old copy of Fragile dreams today, had no idea it was worth anything.

[@moonshinegaming]

Nice!!!

[@mrmojorisin8752]

It’s interesting, though, that the rarest games are often not the most collectible/valuable. Panda games for the Atari 2600 are exceedingly rare, especially in box. They are now expensive, but not crazily so. The same is true of many unlicensed NES games; I’m thinking of the blue cartridges. The cost of them often has little relationship to how hard they are to find.

[@samanthaazira]

I would have also chosen mario party 8 to throw for my B roll lol. I love the klonoa series for sure.

[@moonshinegaming]

Klonoa is so good 🔥

[@Kain5th]

are you gonna do handhelds at some point? gameboy ds psp?

[@moonshinegaming]

Yeah for sure!

[@LazyRetroGamer]

Calling a very rare horror game very few sold and on sale on ebay

[@moonshinegaming]

Yes that’s another rare one on the Wii!

[@ProfessorJokaseyGaming]

I got 5 out of the 10 never played my copy of grudge and fragile dreams might have too after watching this

[@moonshinegaming]

Nice! Fragile dreams is great

[@MrMegaManFan]

I was confused right off the bat. Klonoa is nowhere near a $120 game. It's $45.

[@moonshinegaming]

This video was made almost 2 yeas ago, at the time, it was valued at $120 CAD!

[@therelaxationstation8227]

I wonder if Wii game prices will ever skyrocket

[@moonshinegaming]

Maybe one day! They’re already starting to go up slowly, I remember when Fragile Dreams was like 70 bucks not to long ago

[@caldera11]

i bought sakura wars for 35 dollars new in 2015, now it goes for 120-150

[@Wes36Man]

I'm just curious for the most rarest games do you own all these games? Do you own the systems you are talking about

[@moonshinegaming]

Depends on the system! I own all the N64 and Wii U ones, for the Wii I only own prime trilogy, klonoa and veggy world

[@JadeW1121]

Omg I owned Dokapon Kingdom and my dumbass sold it to gamestop a few years ago for 30 bucks

[@moonshinegaming]

Noooooooo

[@untested3344]

a lot of these games went down in price because of remasters and rereleases of them.

[@amess6232]

I had The Grudge and got rid of it for the same reasons that you mentioned in your video. I would not rebuy that game.

[@NYCJoeBlack]

Fire Emblem: Radiant of Love may have another (physical) version that fixes the save glitch, but I cannot verify that. Anyone know about this or have a way to check the box art, disc, and/or inserts to determine if there is a re-release of FE:RoL?

[@moonshinegaming]

I’m not to sure about this! I’d be interested in knowing if this is true though

[@NYCJoeBlack]

@@moonshinegaming - I’ll do more research.

[@handrewmillan4293]

id like to know

[@NYCJoeBlack]

@@handrewmillan4293 - I could be incorrect in this, but I think that if you sent your game in, you would get a fixed version sent back to you. I remember reading something about that sometime in 2005/2006. I also remember that Marvel Card game for the Nintendo DS that has a game breaking glitch. I mailed my copy to SNK and they mailed me back a fixed version that also came with collectible cards.

[@handrewmillan4293]

@@NYCJoeBlack yeah i remember that process on other games as well like turok but with turok there was a visual indicator, wondering if its the same in this instance

[@johnnada6855]

Chess is an expensive game on the wii ? what?, omg

[@moonshinegaming]

Yeah! It’s pretty wild it’s been one of the more sought after games on the Wii for a while now

[@jakethegamer3974]

I’m planning on getting radiant dawn.

[@moonshinegaming]

It’s a good one!

[@jakethegamer3974]

I just bought it 95 bucks…

[@jakethegamer3974]

Idk if I payed to much lol

[@warehousedave7937]

For monetary value, I'd rather own Cyberbike (north american version) than anything on this list. Yeah it would be hard to pull dokapon numbers with it right now, but it's about as rare as Veggy World. I think collectors and investors will pay more for it though because it reminds them of the ultra rare Mountain Bike / Speedracer combo cart for the extertainment bike on SNES, also the publisher is reputable (Agetec) vs weird shovelware brand. Cyberbike should be a big one on this list.

[@moonshinegaming]

I could definitely see it raising in price in the future for sure. There are so many unknowns with the future of Wii collecting prices, I'm excited to see what happens in the next few years

[@warehousedave7937]

@@moonshinegaming same here! I'm feeling the demand heating up and supply drying up.

[@moonshinegaming]

The sheer volume of games has me excited to see what will become expensive and sought after, I used to love hunting for Will games and you’re right! It seems like they are significantly less common in the wild now

[@Sevenfifty8]

I have Metroid prime for game cube is that rare?

[@bonetron6880]

I would say these are expensive, but I feel like people get rare and expensive mixed up. Opoona for the Wii, is rare. It costs roughly 70 bucks right now, and another example, The Kore gang. Which Is incredibly rare, but only costs about 15 bucks. Just because a game is expensive doesn’t mean it’s rare.

[@moonshinegaming]

Since there is no way to gauge rarity, price point is the way I format these videos. Maybe you should make a video outlining what you think are the 10 rarest games in your opinion and source why you came to those conclusions. I’d be interested to watch! Thanks for checking out the video 👍

[@TheAndrew808]

Might sell for that but definitely not worth those prices

[@lemonfortyfive]

Rhythm Heaven fever has jumped in price! Probably my rarest game in my small collection…

How come youtubers make rarest and most expensive lists, but it's just a most expensive list?

[@moonshinegaming]

Haha I know right, horror collectors maybe, I would never pay full price for that game 😂😂

[@IDyce88]

@@moonshinegaming On a interesting subject, i'll tell you a survival horror video game series that is worth almost any price...that is the Fatal Frame series. the first 3 are slightly easier to get a hold of because they are all on PS 2 and i think 1 n 2 were remade (though many feel the remakes weren't as accurate in telling the story which is the most important part arguably as the entire 5 games are linked). FF 4 was on the Wii with stupid motion controls and only in Japanese until some fans were decent enough to translate it into English, the characters still speak Japanese but there are subtitles and the text is in english. FF 5 was for the Wii U and used that cheesy camera motion device...but the game was still awesome and thankfully they actually had it in english (guess the japanese learned to stop being selfish mofos). but i know people who would pay huge money to get the english translated version of FF 4...even if it technically is kind of a pirate game because it was translated without the companies' permission.

[@moonshinegaming]

Yeah fatal frame is great! I own 1-3 on PS2, they’re also remaking the Wii U one on switch so I’m looking forward to grabbing that when it comes out 👌
