Family Games Compendium

The Family Games Compendium is a collection of 20 family games over 3 discs comprised of several previously-released games that Midas had published between 1999 and 2001: Disc 1 is a rerelease of Cocouts Japan's Vegas Casino Disc 2 is a rerelease of Bottom Up Interactive's Card Shark Disc 3 is a compilation of three racing games from Interactive Entertainment: Kart Racer (previously released as Kart Challenge ); Superbike Challenge (previously released as Sports Superbike ); Power GP (previousy released as GP Challenge )

The original PlayStation (1994) brought CD-based gaming and 3D graphics to the mainstream, ending Nintendo's console dominance of the previous two generations. It's now firmly in "retro collecting" territory: original jewel cases with intact manuals command a real premium over disc-only copies, and several RPGs from its later years (when Sony deliberately courted the genre) are among the most expensive commonly-collected games from the era.

Gamevaro tracks Family Games Compendium for PlayStation 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 Family Games Compendium 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 PS1 release dates back to 2001.

Market insights

Family Games Compendium has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning enough copies circulate to establish a reliable market price.

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.
