MovieTome: Are you a game collector

Monday, Aug 10, 2009

I had to laugh today, I remember back 10 years ago when the Nintendo 64 came out and the games were the cutting edge in console graphics. These days the game are something you;d play on you iphone yet, in a local game trading shop, funnily enough called "Game Traders", there lies a somewhat abused copy of Zelda : Ocarina of time in the unqiue gold cartridge.
But that's not funny, no, the joke is the shop is trying to sell it for $79.95.... what?! ... I asked, yeah the collectors games are costing as much as they did back then.... so what obscure games have you seen for such a rip off?

I remember seeing a copy of Futurama for the PS2 on eBay for over $200.

There is a place called Cash-In Culture near me that sells games from Atari up to current generation. They have a locked glass case that sells the more rare games for $50 and up. Some of the games I've seen in the past: The Legend of Zelda NES gold and its sequel Adventure of Link. Each were $50, I think

There are places near me where some games are a lot more than they should be. Oh well I know I'm going to become a game collector so I'll end up being the people who spend the money.

It is funny... and they grade the price on rarity like the games are comic books or collector cards or something... There's a game I was looking for at a game trade place called "Monster Rancher" for the Playstation(Original or PS 1) and that I find is priced somewhere around $50. What's next?

I'm a game collector at the right price. Above is clearly the wrong price!!!

I saw an original Pac Man cartrige in the box for the original for the Atari console at my local book store. They were asking about $90.00 for it!
