New Delhi, Feb 18 : Fighting arcade game T-Mek for the Mega 32X ranked the top most expensive retro gaming title at present, with Mario The Juggler securing the second spot in the list, a new study has revealed.

The second game — Mario The Juggler for the Wide Screen Series of the Game & Watch being able to be traded in for up to $1310 presently.
“When it comes to collecting groups of games, a collection can not be fully complete until it features every game version, especially when collecting for individual consoles,” said Emre Aksu, a spokesperson from 1337.Games.
“However, this can be an expensive feat, as limited production runs of certain games and consoles have made some titles incredibly rare and valuable, as seen in this list,” he added.
Coming in joint third place is the Super NES version of Mega Man X2.The game was voted one of the best Super NES titles, and despite the popularity of the console and the game itself, a top-condition version can fetch up to $1,228 when traded in, according to the study.
