Forums - Gaming - This is the reason why I own a Retro Video Game store!!!

 

Someone traded this in the other day. There is only like 10 known sealed copies and 50 copies total out in the wild. This is 10x better then when I got Earthbound and Demon Crest traded in.

This game is going straight into my personal collection like other rare games come into my store.

Hahaha congrats dude



I HATE YOU SO MUCH RIGHT NOW >=(



Question: do you do ok with the business? Because I don't see many retro game stores locally.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles. 

 

I have a retro game store too! The money is great, but the best part is how bonkers my personal collection has gotten over the last couple years.

I don't know about other places but retro games is very popular now. I do really good business, honestly more then I expected. Original opening the store was a way for me to get rare games to fill my collection but now it's become a hefty income for me.



Nice find! Congrats, man.

Running a game store must be an awesome job :)



Did the trader know this edition of the cover was very rare?



"There is only like 10 known sealed copies and 50 copies total out in the wild."

What? I had no idea this game was that rare.

Reminds me of being at a friends place and seeing a sealed copy of Suikoden II and explaining to them it was worth hundreds of dollars. They just shrugged saying may need it if other copy broke some day.

Yes, he was a ex-Sony employee. Funny, he's don't like video games and this was the only game he kept when working at Sony. BTW he was Marketing.
