Incredibly Rare Game Boy Game ‘Spud’s Adventure’ Has Popped Up On Ebay Complete In Box | Retro Dodo (retrododo.com)

Incredibly limited-production titles for the original Game Boy, like 'Spud's Adventure', are rare treasures among collectors. This particular copy is not only still in its original box but is also up for grabs on eBay.

The game comes complete with a pristine box, plastic insert and instruction booklet. Unlike the incredibly sought after 'Amazing Tater', 'Spud's Adventure' has a slightly more accessible price point at $1,800 compared to the former’s reported $4,000.

The game itself sees players navigating through levels as Spud, a potato character, on a rescue mission for Princess Mato.

It's curious that the two rarest Game Boy games are potato-based...

Have you collected any one-of-a-kind cartridges?

They must be hidden gems

We'd better keep an eye out for them in the future.
