Every once in a while a Nintendo World Championship cart will pop up for sale. These carts were given to the contestants of the 1990 NWC. There are about 100 grey carts and 20 something gold carts. Grey carts can pull anywhere from 5-10k, while gold carts can pull 10-15k+.
This particular one is claimed to be cart #1 and at $25k is probably the most expensive NES related item to date.
Crazy madness.

NCSX and Play-Asia are now taking pre-orders for the import fighter BlazBlue. While this game isn’t going to be stealing any thunder from SF4 of KoF12, it will be good to get some Guilty Gear style action in HD. Hori is also releasing some themed joysticks for BlazBlue. Of course the 360 users will be getting the inferior joystick compared to the PS3. Not that it matters though, if you don’t have a NTSC/J 360 you’ll have to play it on PS3 anyway.
