Below is a list of Konami games that included the numbered Konami collector cards. Let's add to it, if you can confirm any other games:
Ai Senshi Nicol (FDS)
Akumajou Dracula 2 (FDS)
Almana no Kiseki (FDS)
Contra (FC)
Doremikko (FDS)
Exciting Baseball (FDS)
Exciting Basketball (FDS)
Exciting Billiard (FDS)
Exciting Soccer: Konami Cup (FDS)
Falsion (FDS)
Geppu Maden (FC)
Meikyujin Dababa (FDS)
Metal Gear (FC)
Mighty Atom (FC)
Salamander (FC)
Top Gun (FC)
Wai Wai World (FC)
What are the numbered Konami collector cards ?
With some of their games, Konami includes cards that look kinda like trading cards and picture an illustration of characters from the game. The back of the card showed what number the game is. With Akumajou Dracula II, they released several versions of the card. Here's one:

Bunch of new cards added above!
Hope these pics can be useful to the site.
hmm only like the castlevania and contra ones the rest are blah
My Lagrange Point Has a card like that.
pic?
Thanks!
Those are incredibly cool. :) They seem pretty similar to the Dizzy Adventurer NES cards that came out in Europe only. They were available by mail order.
These were all randomly included with certain Konami releases. I think we have the complete list of games that contained them, but we don't know how many different ones there were for each game. The only game I do know the total is Dracula 2, which has 6. I am still trying to track down the last 2.
Doremikko
The FDS piano/music game

Is that game rare? I'd love to get a copy if I could. I love all music games.

Erm..so that would be a yes :(
Yeah, and expensive because it includes that there keyboard.
I played the ROM just now..and it made me want it even more :o This game is pretty damn cool for a Famicom music game...I especially liked what happens when you're in a concert, and you select "Contry" for your genre..and everyone is a cowboy..except you...
And you are a ban master...and your fiddler has one leg...

I saw a copy of Contra with the card at a shop in Akihabara the other day. Too bad it was over ¥7,000 :(
These are so cool, I wish I had some. But better yet I wish games today came with cool stuff like this! Now all we get is a manual and "You should buy this game too."

That is something
JC was writing about - Konami released several versions of the cards, my Arumana no Kiseki in particular includes this one :

If you are interested I've been hunting down these cards for years and been listing them on my website - I don't have a page for all the Famicom Konami games yet, but I believe I have pictures for most of the cards for each game I have reviewed so far:

Please let me know if you have one missing, I would be very interested to add it to the site. I know of one extra card for Wai Wai World, Tetsuwan Atom and Metal Gear that I haven't listed, but the quality of the pics I have is terrible...
Hi lkermel, yes I've used your site. Happy to scan any of mine if you need one.
