Ah, I see. Fanatic-Templar Send a noteboard - 04/08/2011 04:26:28 AM
That's because of rarity issues. The cartridge is hard to get ahold of, and so is expensive to buy, and none of that money goes to Nintendo. What is the worth of the game, itself, would you say? I mean, were Nintendo to put it on Virtual Console, (it may be there, IDK) what would be a reasonable price to pay?


I'd easily pay 5-10$ for a game that I enjoy. Why wouldn't I? I'd have paid more for it back in the day anyway. I've purchased StarCraft three times (which is pretty pointless since I could now download it infinitely from Battle.net since it's registered). Still, I don't think I'd purchase old games I've never played, so I don't know if I can adequately answer your question.

What is the value of an old game? Dannymac - 03/08/2011 04:41:26 PM 766 Views
Depending on the game, $5-10 is perfect for me beetnemesis - 03/08/2011 05:46:43 PM 623 Views
Depends on the game. Fanatic-Templar - 03/08/2011 06:15:04 PM 619 Views
Not exactly what I was talking about. Dannymac - 03/08/2011 06:30:58 PM 667 Views

Varies wildly on the game. 2D ages much better than 3D. Ghavrel - 03/08/2011 10:38:13 PM 597 Views
I would basically agree with this. *NM* Zalis - 04/08/2011 03:06:30 AM 252 Views
I agree on 5-10, depending LadyLorraine - 04/08/2011 05:22:36 PM 604 Views
But how much of that is based on availability? Dannymac - 04/08/2011 08:25:27 PM 591 Views
yes, but I still don't think you'll see prices come up high LadyLorraine - 04/08/2011 11:40:14 PM 588 Views

lost your original copy, it's just that old a game... LadyLorraine - 05/08/2011 05:27:09 AM 566 Views
I bought Arch Rivals (NES) for $2.50 a few months ago. I'd say that's fair. Zalis - 04/08/2011 08:44:58 PM 582 Views
