AnimalMother117: I also have Seisen no Keifu in good condition with box and manual on Super Famicom and Sacred Stones, I got that new in 2009 on Amazon for $20 and it's currently going $80+ new there.
227: Older games always tend to have massively inflated prices for new copies. Just look at how much you'd have to pay on Amazon to pick up a new copy of Lufia 2 for the Super Nintendo, for example. $790 is the cheapest price. I'm jealous of your Seisen no Keifu, though; that's one of those games that desperately needs an English release. Too bad it'll probably never happen on account of all the incest, murder, child sacrifice, and cult stuff.
groze: Wow, I didn't know my Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance could be sold for $65!
227: Yeah, most older Fire Emblem games end up fetching a fairly high price after awhile because they always seem to print too few copies. I don't think Nintendo realized how mainstream-friendly the series is until Awakening got a ton of attention and became one of the big selling points of the 3DS.
Yeah, after years and years of waiting for a VC release got discouraged and just decided to pick up the physical copy, unfortunately my Japanese is poor at best (although I am better with onomatopoeia than my friend who's been studying for years) and I have to use a translated script while I memorize the commands. But adolescents, the target demographic, love stuff like incest, murder, child sacrifice, and cult stuff...maybe we shouldn't give them the satisfaction...
zeffyr: It's currently available in my country for few bucks. But a copy which runs on XP and on XP only :(
AnimalMother117: Lord of the Rings Battle For Middle Earth: Anthology, got this as a gift, now it's worth well over $100 on Amazon and ebay. Pretty amazing since I always thought it was a good not great game.
zeffyr: I envy you, that's a gem :> I can't believe I owned collector's edition of BFME2 with an expansion and sold it like 8 years ago. And owned it again year later. AND SOLD IT AGAIN THEN! ;-(
I actually forgot I had it for a while, I actually really like the game, I just couldn't imagine it would be worth so much. Also, I found 2 to be the most enjoyable anyway especially with the expansion. I have the unofficial rule that I just don't sell any of my games, which most would probably not be worth a lot anyway my Gamecube boxes are all punctured, just in case I want to play them again years later which leads to not a lot of space with all the games I have.
