Didn't see Pitfall ever becoming hard to find. I have come across that CIB a few times, from what I remember. I will have to make sure to pick it up next time.

Same with Blackthorne, actually. I have passed on tha,.t CIB at least once, and for a very reasonable price ( < $10).

When I was looking Blackthorne, T-Mek and Knuckles where the most expensive ones outside of Spider-Man.

I got about 20 of the 36 games, 18 are CIB. I got lucky and was able to get Blackthorne and T-Mek for ~$10 each.

Hopefully I get lucky with World Series Baseball and Pitfall as well so I only have to worry about Spiderman.

I actually got lucky with WSB.  I got it from Goodwill or Value Village for only $2 or $3.  It came with the box or manual.  I can't remember

I know I don't post much on this site, but I just wanted to add that I got World Series Baseball CIB for $1.25 at a flea market. I really think that the majority of the 32x collection could be had for cheap...just as long as you have the patience to find deals.

Pricey for me.

No Spider-Man but there is an auction for Blackthorne.

http://cgi.ebay.com/Sega-...ZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
Blackthrone is a great game, never played it on the 32X though. Certainly a game worth owning and playing. It's like having the early Prince of Persia games. But just look around and you'll find games over time and a lot cheaper than eBay or auction sites. Patience pays off in this hobby and if loose is alright with you then it's even easier. I actually found a loose copy of Spider-man the other month for $1 at a pawn shop, wasn't even expecting it but knowing of the title and rarity sure helped.

The 32X wouldn't be too bad to collect for just carts only. The thing I've noticed about trying to collect CIB for the 32X, is that it's a pain in the ass. Nobody seemed to keep the boxes and manuals. Also the first batch of launch titles came in hard black cases with colored manuals for a very brief time, like the original Genesis carts, and they are almost impossible to come across. I've got Wrestlemania Arcade in the hard case, but that's the only one so far. I don't know how many other games came in hard cases before Sega started cheaping out, but it's pretty much a given that all of the launch titles came in hard cases in the begining.

I know for sure that NBA Jam TE is available in the hard case, but not sure of any others.

I do and I know Tholly does as well.

A bunch of people have it. Click the Who Owns this link.

I actually don't have Spider-man.

I have everything CIB except for Spider-man and Pitfall.  Those are the only 2 that I am missing.  My only complete set is the Magnavox Odyssey 2.  I really need to get those last 2 for a complete 32x set.
