VAPS Arcade Census

GAMES OWNED, WANTED, or FOR SALE BY MEMBERS OF THE VIDEO ARCADE PRESERVATION SOCIETY

Uncommon - There are 18 known instances of Forgotten Worlds owned by one of our 900 members. Of these, 6 of them are original dedicated machines, it is a conversion in which game circuit boards (and possibly cabinet graphics) have been placed in (and on) another game cabinet, and 11 of them are only circuit boards which a collector could put into a generic case if desired.

Of the 57,098 video games (3,420 unique) tracked by the Video Game Preservation Society, this game ranks a 10 on a scale out of 100 (100 = most commonly seen, 1=least common) in popularity based on ownership records.

Wanted - There are 2 VAPS members currently looking for Forgotten Worlds.

For Sale - There are 2 VAPS members with Forgotten Worlds machines for sale. VAPS members are totally independent of VAPS and the International Arcade Museum, and we are unable to recommend, endorce, or guarantee any person or company selling games or game parts.

Rarity is NOT necessarily an indication of value. Some common games show up as very rare here because collectors don't want them (they are common because arcade operators might be sitting on tons of them in warehouses), while some fairly scarce games are grabbed by collectors every time they show up. Additionally, some games made in the last 5 years are still making money for operators and are thus not yet affordable to the typical collector. For a clue to value, compare how many people have this game vs. how many people want this game and then click on the eBay links to help determine an accurate price range.

Technical

Forgotten Worlds runs on the Capcom CP System board (same as Magic Sword, Dynasty Wars, etc.)

Trivia

The Japanese version of this game is called Lost Worlds. The Japanese version shows fewer special weapons to choose from during the attract mode.

This game is the third and final of Capcom's 'Jet-Pack Hero' shooters. Other games that fall into this catergory are Section Z and Side Arms - Hyper Dyne.
