The most coveted game

"Gosh, It's Beautiful."

Not your typical ESPN article!

Nice article in the fact it's on an ESPN website.  But, um... if this is THE game to have, why have I never heard of it?

[tthurman]

Because it was a flop, but in truth was probably the precursor to all sorts of "activity" games.  Is it "dance, dance revolution"? or something of that sort, but games that involved physical interaction outside the boundaries of a handheld controller. 

A NES cartridge though....geez, no matter how obscure/limited, I don't see that kind of money being warranted!

It's Track & Field. So what if the cartridge art is different.

I can see those looking for a complete collection being into the rarity, but I bet dollars to donuts another couple hundred cases turn up at Namco Bandai.

I checked my romsets, I don't even have that game.

Oh, my bad. You're right.

Pretty much the same thing, sorta!  I was just posting that because Han was looking for it.

Ahh, yeah I've played that before, on an actual Power Pad mat.

" Stadium Events is a focal point of the 2015 documentary Nintendo Quest, where it is considered the single rarest NES title and is seen being listed for US$77,000. "  -Wikipedia

Wow.. $77,000 that's insane.  But I understand why it's so rare now because it was recalled to have the name changes.  Crazy.
