Earthbound is a bit of a special case considering the game was a highly acclaimed flop in the US and the cartridges sell for 200$ starting price at eBay. It also has a higher price in europe like all import titles (the game had not been released in europe prior of the Wii U version), but it still manages to sell really well. In both case, the reason is probably a legendary mix of reputation of the game and rarity of the origial cartridge.

Well, sure. Doesn't make it less interesting. I mean, it's ahead of Super Metroid, which they were practically giving away during the NES 30th Anniversary promotion, and which also has a legendary reputation.
