I got these in the mail today from Qixmaster.  FamicomJL says that one is a Stadium Events (blue one) and the other is a Athletic World (green one).  Does anyone have any more info on them.  How much are these babies worth for my curiosity?  I don't know pooh about Fami stuff.

Thanks FamicomJL for the previous info, very helpful.

Still considering eBaying them?

I am keeping SE for sure, and am going to try and find a PAL SE so I have one of each.  I might sale Althletic World.  I was hoping someone else would post with some knowledge about them, maybe that means they are hella rare.
~~NGD

Interesting find, NGD. Never knew that SE was released for the famicom. Of course, I'm no famicom expert but I've never seen one of these up for sale anywhere.

It's cool to see the same box art for Stadium Events for famicom is the same as NES. It's one of my fav box arts.

Yeah, it's pretty cool looking. And expect me to go after Athletic World if it's eBayed.  :)

I still want to get Top Secret. I still never played it  :'(

I saw "Family Trainer 1: Athletic World" at a place where that I usually consider their stuff overpriced and it was $18.  I don't think the US got but family trianer 1, 2, and 3, but there were around 10 over there.

"Family Trainer 2: Running Stadium" is ....  yes, you guessed it!  Stadium events...

"Family Trainer 3: Aerobics Studio" is dance arobics, I think.

if I were making a guess, I'd say that neither were worth more than $10 over there.  I'm sure you could get more for Stadium events if you put Stadium Events in the title on ebay...  :)  

I've heard the series called by the year as if they all came one year after another starting in '86 (ie Family Trainer '86 is Athletic World).  The only problem with that is that I don't think they came out one year after another.  I think that a bunch of them came out in '87 especially.

I guess the pad hit it off bigger over there...

$10 there, but here? Has to net atleast $100. Indeed, they're very common over in Japan, but the only reason why is that the Family Trainer Fitness Pad actually did REALLY WELL in Japan, while we were too damn lazy to use the thing. I just wish the Family Trainer carts would show up on eBay more. They'd be a good snag.

I know the famicom  4 player adaptor isn't compatable with the NES one.  How compatable are these famicom games with a NES pad?

I haven't been very successful with getting them to work. :-/  I don't have a Famicom system, and the converter I have is sketchy at best.  I got the SE title screen to come up twice, then then it blinked away.  So I know the games work, I just need something better to test them on.
~~NGD

you don't have an "official" nes converter laying around or in a game?  That's still all I use and I love it...    :)  

I was gonna bid on this but forgot:

Good seller too...got my three CIB Koei Famicom games from him...too bad you forgot.

Damn, if someone would've posted the link I would've bid on it!

If I didn't plan on bidding on it I would've gladly posted it.  I'll keep an eye out for others, and I'll let you know if I come across any, as I'm sure you want/need them more than I would ;)

Don't worry too much about it. :)

Here's another. A little more expensive, however.

I'm beginning to think that one NGD's got isn't worth too much. But still don't know much about the SE cart.

I am beginning to think the same thing JC, but I still think it is pretty cool.  I will try to find a PAL SE now, I will have all 3, would be a cool picture to have I think.

There you go FamicaomJL, a cheap ass copy of one for you.
~~NGD

...And I missed it. I only buy from Japan, The U.S., and Canada anyway...

Wonder who snagged that from under you.

You should consider buying from that seller, if you don't mind his prices. He's reliable and the shipping is quick for how for it's got to travel.

But like I said, only Japan, U.S., Canada, and the U.K. to an extent really...

NGD, find out anything on that cart yet? Find anybody else that has one?

I still say he should give it to me for free... ;)

Here you go folks - a gift 9 bucks including shipping

Lol....I was going to post that very same question again today and forgot.

Nope.  I haven't really done to much digging though.  Been very busy with other projects.  I am just glad I have it, I still think it is pretty rare, but who knows.  Just cause it sales cheap doesn't mean it isn't rare.  
~~NGD

Give it to me then... ;D

I let you have the NOID PLUSH~!, you gotta give me something back. :P

Michael says it's worth $20 to $25 and featherpluckinfilms says it's not hard to come by in Japan. So, I'm guessing that means it's not as rare as we had been thinking.

If it's not that rare, I would love to get a hold of a boxed copy just to have :) Kinda nice knowing they aren't that hard to find.

After that all I would need is the PAL version and the cart and manual for the NTSC version :)

Like I said at my forums, eBay worth is possible $100, but much much less for Famicom collectors.

A brand new one went for $50.  In other words, not very valuable!

I meant to bid and forgot. Oh well. I will contact the seller and see if he can track down another. I would like to have it just because it's a complete SE :)

Kris, aka featherpluck, is really cool. I'm sure he can find one for you. I wonder what he paid for the one he just sold.

I won the $50 brand new one.  The only reason it ended for that price is because it carries the "Stadium Events" name and is brand new.  I really doubt its that hard of a game to find.  I have it in my possession now so if anybody wants any pictures or screenshots or more information about it please let me know.

I would love to own one though for $50 i would buy something else. Still nice to complete the set like that, i will scoop eBay and check if i find one cheap. Would be great to own all 3 versions.
