Any thoughts?
That's not the Holy Grail. The Holy Grail is Stadium Events.

What's so special about a sports game?

We know how many copies of World Championships are out there. Maybe not all of them are owned by collectors yet, but we know how many were made and that they all went to someone specific, either a competitor in the games or a contest winner.
Stadium Events was released in limited quantities, very few of which are known to still exist. World Championships might be an amazing piece to have in your collection, but Stadium Events is a true holy grail since the majority of them that are known to exist are held by collectors. One pops up every once in awhile at a flea market or something for pennies.
I don't even have an NES to play it with...

What about Campus Challenge? There's only one official copy of that known to exist.

Hard to collect something that only one person can ever have at one time. :/
Also, how do you value something like that? It's pretty much worth however much the owner says it's worth.

Hm. True.
