        No because I made over a hundred dollars off it and I got it for only like 60 because I traded in some DVD's and used a coupon when I originally bought it at Vintage Stock.

    mine is a weird case...
    i have an original JP Pop'n TwinBee SNES cart with box, manual, and all,and i had it since it's original 1993 release(imported in EU for a little more than its retail price, literally just import+shipping fees), which was several months before its official EU release, and for YEARS it was somewhat of a rarity, i think it was around 1998 or 1999 where it reached a few hundred dollars in value.
    then the internet exploded, ebay became a thing, importing good conditions boxed jp games became more common, and now you can find it for 35 bucks, same conditions as mine

    so what i own was rare, but not anymore

        Similar to Spider-Man 2, these copies were recalled due to the 9/11 attack. I believe it's only the cover art that was changed. A handful of 9/11 copies are out there - most of them with holepunches in the barcodes (review/promo copy).

        I wonder when the first rewriteable nes/snes carts showed up. I think even in the snes era there was one.
        Also funny to think that all you needed to play pirated games on Dreamcast was fit them on a CD-R.

        • 8 months ago
          Anonymous

          True. The old solutions relied on floppy disks or burnt CD-R's. I think the first SD-based flash cartridges and Everdrives started appearing around the late-2000's/early-2010's.

          Dreamcast is a pirate's paradise but getting a GDemu doesn't hurt since they're cheap, you can fit uncompressed GDI images on them, and a few games like Maken X are impossible to compress to a point they can fit on a burnt disc.

                It is a .CDI the entire point of the format is to compress the game for CD-Rs. There is even a less compressed 99MIN .CDI copy for 99 minute ~1gb CD-Rs

    Probably Cubivore or Go Go Hypergrind. Maybe Clock Tower 2 for the ps1.
    I hate what the used game market has become, all of the games I have now that are worth hundreds of dollars I got for $50 or less from my town's weekly flea market 12 years ago. 8'm a leaf so this was in CAD too. I remember when $50 was considered an obscene amount of money to spend on a used game regardless of its rarity. I have stuff from back then that's over 10x its original value but I'll never sell it because it disgusts me that the market would allow such prices for a game.
