Tr3vor Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Why would that be so expensive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Psionic Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Why would that be so expensive? Because it's SEALED!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tr3vor Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Why would that be so expensive? Because it's SEALED!!! I still dont get collectors. If its seald in a box, that means that you cant play it without opening it, which severely decreaces its value. Its a game, so whats the point?

Rev Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 i remember seeing this sealed in stores long ago. along with super mario rpg in the clearance bin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homerwannabee Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 It is also a 90 graded by VGA. I think most fall in the 85 or under category so there is a higher premium on this because not only is it sealed, but it is minty sealed, if that makes any sense. Certainly makes a ton of cents though no matter how you figure it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lendorien Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 I always thought the VGA was sort of a crock. Has it gained traction now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homerwannabee Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 I always thought the VGA was sort of a crock. Has it gained traction now? Only with the NES,and SNES fanboys. Basically with that those systems. Especially the SNES it is easy enough to get all the game, and even all the games boxed. The only challenge is sealed, and even then most big time collectors for the SNES have everything sealed, so they had to make up something. The best looking sealed games out there. And VGA filled the need. With the Atari is hard enough just to get stuff loose let alone boxed, that by the time it comes to sealed stuff, most just say "Forget about it!"

Stan Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I don't know, I'd say, having been around the NES scene for awhile, it never really totally caught on. This is a pretty sought after game in general, so if you're looking for something that might be worth more in the future, it would be one to get in VGA form. I could care less, however, and I, like most collectors, think the whole VGA thing is a total crock. I like how a group just forms that can somehow determine by its one year of knowledge how to rate stuff. But, again, from what I've seen, most collectors don't care about this. It made something of a stir when it first started to happen, but then the market was flooded with sellers trying to dump VGA games of fairly common titles for hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars, which no one ever bothered with. They're trying to arbitrarily assume the value of these things when it hasn't been really determined yet. I don't think it will ever fully catch on like comic book grading.

greencoman Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Yeah I guess so. I dont most collectors do care your correct I dont. But I guess it means something. Maybe to collectors and more just for me its neat just having a game than all the rest. Even when its not sealed. Well anyhow this ended at 4,250. I didnt think it would sell for this much. Is it worth it. If you look there is a couple more on there for sale and graded by vga of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's next, Final fantasy 3 or Super Mario RPG? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
