There are a lot of scarce and rare games for the Super Famicom. But does Rendering Ranger: R2 rank as the rarest of them all?

Read here to find Super Famicom Guy’s take on the subject. Thank you for sharing another article with us here on SNES Hub!

I find it fascinating (and very strange) that one of the rarest SFC exclusives was developed by a European, especially considering the stigma that Western developed games have in Japan.

Wow. That one was expensive even back in the day before the price inflation! It is certainly one of the more expensive…..

I’ve seen a few complete copies on Ebay for around $1000. If it’s frustratingly hard as the article says it is, it’s not worth the price of admission.

Excellent article, enjoyed reading through it. Many years back I saw copies floating on auction sites for between £400 – £700. Nowadays, if you do see a copy they’re usually above £1000 which when you add in all the other aspects it ticks; such as quality unhindered gameplay, high-end graphics, rarity of copies etc, it is for dedicated (& wealthy) collectors, the grand prize as far as Super Famicom software is concerned.

Welcome back Mong! You’ve been missed around here. Looking forward to your input on a Top 200 SNES project that we’ve been working on.

Ah, finally had a look at that. I’m terrible for doing lists of favorite/best games but as it’s SNES software I’ll give it a shot. Shoot, there’s only until the 19th. Another week and it’ll be over. Best put my 200 in the mix.
