LynxVGL Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Is MUSHA super rare? I'm seeing some pretty extreme eBay prices for it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Dart Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Pretty rare. Is "scarce" the word? The prices are due in part to the fact that it's a decent game, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishNinja Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 sadly yes, and demand is high. it's one of the few Genesis games (Crusader of Centy, Eliminate Down etc) to command that price, and while it's one of my favorites on the system, there's other/better SHMUPs to be found for far less.

+Cafeman Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 MUSHA is my favorite Genesis shmup. But I bought it cheap, years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krslam Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 It's also one of the most counterfeited games on ebay, so buy with caution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Dart Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 It's also one of the most counterfeited games on ebay, so buy with caution. I noticed that! Found a copy for $30. That was suspicious enough, so I checked the seller's other auctions, and it was a bunch of obvious reproductions without being listed as such.

Austin Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 MUSHA is one of the few Genesis titles that have made it to that $100+ territory (or now, $200+). It could be a combination of factors, such as the fact that it's a good game and people are willing to tell their friends about it, and the fact that it's not a game you usually see out in the wild very frequently so people are willing to pay a little extra for it. However, it's likely that the collector scene has boosted its "value" over time as well by placing it on a pedestal as one of those few Genesis titles you can brag about owning. I think it's a great game and it's easily my favorite shmup on the system. However, I don't think it's necessarily that rare, and as Rex said, maybe "scarce" is a better way to categorize it. It's definitely not worth the price you will have to pay these days, but it is an awesome game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
