ryckster Posted December 1, 2002 Share Posted December 1, 2002 Someone at Ebay is selling a used copy of NES Super Mario Bros. allegedly autographed by Shigeru Miyamoto himself: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...5&category=3608 Check the ridiculous price he is asking for. *sarcasm* Heck, maybe I should get my old NES Metroid copy, scribble the name "Gumpei Yokoi" on the game's label and sell it too! *sarcasm* lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icbrkr Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 Why would someone in Japan have an American NES game autographed? Wouldn't it make more sense to have a Famicom game autographed? Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 Not necessarily, I had the chance to get Miyamoto's autograph once while I was attending the Tokyo Game Show but I didn't have anything for him to sign so I didn't bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhindle The Red Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 Yes, the guy is asking too much to start and yes, his buy-it-now is preposterous and yes, he has way too little information on this item. But really, there's not much reason to assume it's fake. Miyamoto signs stuff all the time at trade shows and even just on the street, both here and in Japan. Many American journalists (and even just plain fans) attend shows in Japan and would be likely to have a US cart. The seller is in Utah. I wouldn't buy it and I don't think anyone else will either, but just because the guy's an idiot doesn't mean he's a crook. Olaf, Lat went near the opening.

MrRetroGamer Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 just because the guy's an idiot doesn't mean he's a crook. That sums up about 1/2 of the sellers on EBAY! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost Monkey Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 just because the guy's an idiot doesn't mean he's a crook. That sums up about 1/2 of the sellers on EBAY! And about 90% of the buyers!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
