Stakes Winner 2
Neo Geo AES · 1996
About this game
Like its predecessor, Stakes Winner 2 is a 2D horse racing game.
Choosing from one of the game's selection of horses, players must compete in a series of races on different tracks to earn money and prestige.

Each horse that players can select is rated according to speed, stamina, and burst.
Players control their horses with the joystick and three buttons.
Pressing the A button repeatedly keeps the horse accelerated with a slight drain of the stamina bar, while pressing the B button applies the rider crop to the horse.
This results in a slight burst of speed at the cost of draining the horse's stamina bar faster.
About Neo Geo AES
SNK's Neo Geo AES (1990) was marketed as the ultimate home arcade experience, using the same hardware as SNK's arcade cabinets — at an extraordinarily high price for both the console and its cartridges. That exclusivity is exactly why Neo Geo AES games remain among the most expensive in all of retro collecting; several titles routinely sell for well over a thousand euros in good condition.
Gamevaro tracks Stakes Winner 2 for Neo Geo AES with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Stakes Winner 2 to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NEO release dates back to 1996.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Stakes Winner 2, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Neo Geo AES titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
