Went into a store and ordered the original legend of zelda during the early SNES days and had Link 2 come instead. Well it was cheap so I said what the hell even though I had already owned this game for the past 5 years. I never  did open it, then I ran across it the other day. I've never sold any old games on Ebay or anything like that but this thing is pristine and I wonder if it would be worth my time. Any suggestions or big offers?

I'd say, sell it. you'd make a bundle to buy new games.

youd make a couple hundred probably.

You wouldn't get rich but probably enough to buy a Wii i would say. Maybe with a game as well.

Wow ... youl get a couple of hundred $$$ for it :D Man your lucky :P

Ya I'm not sure on that one... Zelda 2 wasn't as popular with most people as the original or SNES sequel. I'm going to guess at most at the moment you'd get on e-bay is 200$ and to get the 200$ you'll have to push to advertise it on some game sites.

u'd prolly get 2x or more if it was original zelda instead of zelda 2, but hopefully u can still get a decent amount

Get rich? No.
Make $100? Maybe.

Well here's another copy of a sealed Legend of Zelda 2 on eBay. I suggest you follow it's progress.

Also type in "nes sealed" into the eBay search engine to find all of the other ongoing bids for sealed NES games. Most are not getting nearly as much as you'd think. A sealed copy of Final Fantasy is going for $499 and Castlevania is going for $200 and they're the best i've seen thus far. Many games ae going for a few dollars to fifty dollars. Good luck selling it. 

Unfortunately I think your a couple years too late to make the mint you would have made otherwise. Realistically consumers can now play the game legally on the virtual console. The game itself also has a half life due to the fact that few machines are still in working order, and there is a high likelihood that the cartridge itself will no longer function. Remember the games memory is in the cart not on the system.

You can probably make back the retail price on your game. A few years ago you might have made many more times that. Since it would have had a wider value. However now it is only of value to collectors, and there cannot be too many collectors who do not already have a copy of this title.
