Counting Stadium Events, I'm down to 3 left for a complete US set:
Flintstones Surprise at Dinosaur Peak
Stadium Events
Zombie Nation
Obviously these are harder to find, even on eBay, in decent shape, so I need your help tracking down this list. Prefer cart only on these due to cost. I'd love to do partial trade, but don't mind purchasing outright either if you have one of these available. I'm a little picky on condition so pictures would be pretty much required before any trades, I'll happily send pics and might add some to this post at some point. My lists are up to date, but some of the highlights of my available trade include (cart only unless specified):
Mother 1+2 (Game Boy Advance) (Japanese Greatest Hits version, CIB)
Final Fantasy Legend II (Game Boy)
The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons (Game Boy Color)
The Legend of Zelda (NES Classic Series) (Game Boy Advance)
Diner (Intellivision) (cart and manual)
Dokapon: Kingdom Connect (Nintendo Switch, sealed)
Kirby and the Forgotten Land (Nintendo Switch, sealed)
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Collector's Edition (Nintendo Switch) (sealed, minor shipping damage)
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (Nintendo Switch, CIB)
I also have some board games that weren't for me, may make a separate post with pics later:
7th Continent + 2 expansions
Bloodborne + 4 expansions + Hunter's Dream Extras (expansions are sealed)
Darkest Dungeon + minis (both boxes sealed)
Forbidden Island
Forbidden Desert (sealed)
Forbidden Sky
Arkham Horror Living Card Game Revised Edition (some characters still sealed) + 1 Stella Clark starter deck (sealed)
I'm also looking for stuff from other consoles (

stuff I don't have), and I don't mind looking at lists if you're interested in anything. Thanks for looking, excited to make a few trades and finally finish off the set!

Can't really help here (I actually did have a Zombie Nation at one point, but moved it on here) but just wanted to say this is awesome and good luck.

I wish I could help, but I can't. It's amazing though how close you are! I remember at one point I had over 200 NES games. Good luck!

Thanks all for the support - I know this is going to be rough, been looking for the last few for awhile. Just got Pro Sport(s) Hockey to get down to 10, but before that it was months since I've added anything! I also have all the Camerica and Tengen titles, but not Color Dreams/Wisdom Tree stuff because the carts are always in terrible shape when I find them. Anyone else that already finished the NES set? What was the hardest title(s) to get for you, complete set or not?

Was going to tag defaultgen too but I see he abandoned his account on here.

Bonk's incoming, 9 to go! Got an eBay offer that wasn't crazy, or at least seemed fair. Hopefully it arrives OK, excited to take one of the bigger ones off the list!

I have a full NES set (minus Stadium Events) so welcome to the club! Well, you’ll be there soon enough anyways. I don’t have any doubles of the ones you need still but I’ll keep my eyes peeled when I’m out and about. I had a lot of help along the way so I like to pay it forward. Some of those shouldn’t be TOO crazy. Good luck on Little Samson though. And make your peace with never owning Stadium Events. I speak from experience, lol.

Stadium Events originally wasn't even on my list, World Class Track Meet is good enough for me, and the prices being what they are, didn't really ever think it would be a possibility. Not that many years ago though I figured I'd never be able to own Bubble Bobble 2 (the sequel to one of my childhood favorites), and now I'm lucky enough to have the disposable income to be this close to a complete set, so who knows what might happen in the future.
Weekend bump, still hoping to make some deals even if it isn't for stuff on this list - looking for anything I don't already have on PSP, Dreamcast, Wii U, Game Boy/Color, so let me know!

Yeah that’s the kicker with Stadium Events, it’s really just a label variant for WCTM. I wish Nintendo didn’t change the name, then us collectors wouldn’t be in this mess. But at this point I’m okay with not having it.

Picking up any of your listed games at this point is pretty impressive. Congrats on that. I'm rooting for you!

No new acquisitions this week, but made a trade or two so I updated my lists. Also added some new games to my available and board games for trade, I really need to clear some space so don't be shy to reach out with offers!

Got Dragon Fighter for a decent deal on eBay and Power Blade 2 from @Snappy, thanks man! Down to 5 left, will probably be making an offer on Little Samson today but we'll see if it goes through. MTG cards are gone as part of the big deal, but still looking to move the rest of my stuff...

Power Blade 2 was a trade here, Little Samson was eBay. Sent a relatively low, but fair offer, and it was accepted. These last three don't have a ton of listings popping up and when they do they're either way overpriced or too beat up for me. At this point the prices don't really scare me that much, I'm so close to the end...seems like finding a decent Flintstones is going to be a real pain, though!

I remember when I first started really collecting thinking wow Flintstones is really expensive when it was about $200 and sometimes hovered below that. I'm not really bothered by prices either but it's really something how much video games in particular have appreciated as collectibles.
