Most expensive Game ever for USD 15'000.00?
- Details

Does the same count for the following game? On June 26th a Mickey Mouse from the Panorama Screen Series was sold on eBay. End price was USD $15'000.00!
The game is factory sealed and obviously worth a lot of money to the buyer. A quick research in the Game&Watch database shows, that in June 2011 a Panorama Mickey Mouse was sold for USD $3205.13 (view) – that was the most expensive game the database holds (the Green House mentioned earlier is not in the database).
What will be next? Will the USD $15'000.00 ever get topped? Let's wait and see! Thanks to our member mr_byte,who reported this auction.

Shigeru Miyamoto and YM-901
- Details
Shigeru Miyamoto On this year's E3 in Los Angeles, USA, (www.e3expo.com) Shigeru Miyamoto from Nintendo is present there, too. Shigeru Miyamoto is game developer and producer at Nintendo (more: ==> Wiki).
A member here from gameandwatch.ch has been at the E3 and has met Shigeru Miyamoto. This member, who does not want its name to be mentioned here, did sent my the picture you can see on the right. The Super Mario Bros. YM-901 Shigeru Miyamoto holds in his hands belongs to our member.
Shigeru Miyamoto did sign the YM-901 and asked our member, if it wants to have its name on the game, but our member declined. So, Shigeru Miyamoto answered: «OK, my name only then. And look, I made a little nose here.» and laughed. As you can see, he did indeed draw a nose in the middle of the case.
This special YM-901 is the only one we know of - a very rare piece of Game&Watch history!
Note: the owner of the signed YM-901 clearly said, that the game is not for sale!
