Nintendo produced around 33 cartridges for the PowerFest '94. These were used in stores across the country in 1994 for around 130 different events. The winners of each event won a trip to San Diego, CA to play in the World Championships. The 2nd place winner at each event got a Star Fox Jacket (Left over from the Star Fox Competition the year before).
Out of the 33 cartridges only two are left in existence today. The rest were given back to Nintendo where they were reused for parts. The remaining cartridge was supposedly put up for auction on myebid with a buy it now price of $300,000; there were no bidders.
A second cartridge was uncovered and a collector by the name of J.J. Hendricks purchased it for $12,000.
