NES Game Sells for $5100 on eBay

That's right, the game above sold for a whopping $5,100 on eBay. Why? Because it's 1 of 26 that are currently known to exist in the world. This cartridge was only given out at the 1990 Nintendo World Championships. Auction page.
There were only 26 of these given out-and you had to win them to receive one. There are 90 Gray editions made. These are hard to find and is a great item for anyone who is a NES lover! This game cartridge is hailed by most collectors to be one of the most rare and sought after cartridges from Nintendo, promo cartridges aside

Jordan, See link: http://www.atarihq.com/tsr/nes/nwc/nwc.html From what it describes, it is the games that they played in the world nes championships in 1990, Super Mario Bros., Rad Racer and Tetris. Never played the game my self (due to not having that kind of money).

It went through all three games in succession. Each game was played for a certain amount of time. You received a score for how well you did in each game. At the end, the three scores were added to give you a total score. Cool stuff.
