The Microsoft Windows version was released in the United States: on Februand in Europe on November 30, 2007. The Wii version was released in the United States on Februand in Europe on November 23, 2007. The Wii and Microsoft Windows versions were developed by W!Games. Ĭypel acknowledges that while the game was targeted towards girls, he felt that girls like boys would switch off if there wasn't good gameplay underneath the title, and so put a lot of effort into making the title appealing to young female players.
In doing research on horses and discovering their different personalities, Cypel deemed it an "educational" experience. The team liked how horses were both graceful and powerful. It has all the makings of a future rare (like Super Copa for SNES).Dane Cypel, the assistant producer, explained that the team was running out of ideas, and that horses seemed to be the most interesting project that they could create within the family-friendly animal-themed genre they were aiming to target. One new release to really look out for later this month is a Mexican produced NTSC release called "El Chavo". I'll keep my eye open for it but it seems unlikely. Someone on another website claimed that there was a much rarer regular white box version but I cannot confirm that at all. I got a couple copies of Fritz Chess (one opened, one sealed), One Piece sealed, F1 2009 opened (which I actually bought the day it came out) and now My Horse & Me: Riding for Gold.Īs for Metroid Prime Trilogy - that game is really sought after and will always be. For now, I'm just chasing down the rarest ones. The Wii is going to be a pain to collect for - but I have a feeling that so many people grew up with one (just like the NES and Atari) that it'll come back as a collecting system later when all those kids grow older and get those same nostalgic desires as many of us do. A re-release tempered values a bit but it's back up a little. Hmm.for the record I was disappointed with it, but is Mario All-Stars for Wii rare or uncommon? I got it for my gf but had trouble locating a copy.I too bought a copy for my sister for Christmas, kinda wish I got one for myself as well. I suppose I could see a similar thing happening with MH&M:RfG, the difference being that the few that were actively looking for this title when it was released (I traced a couple topics on the Atari message board for the game) were having an awful time finding a copy for themselves. It's still "rare" in the sense that you won't find it for cheap and you won't have much luck finding it used anywhere (a Gamestop national used search came up with two copies according to someone on another board).
I did notice that when more and more people spread the news about Fritz Chess being rare (including myself), that more copies came out of the woodwork on ebay and Amazon.

The first title in the series is extremely easy to find. Yes, it's shovelware (but maybe not - people into this type of game seemed to praise it), but its worth noting that it's terribly difficult to locate online, in fact not many retailers even know this game exists. One game that's currently starting to get a little notice as actually being rare is (drumroll) My Horse & Me: Riding for Gold.
I thought this was worth unearthing as the Wii winds down a bit with its release calendar.
