Brand New EarthBound on Amazon

You’ve gotta love when they make it clear they’re appealing to collectors, and not gamers. Shame, really, since I’m pretty sure plenty of people wouldn’t mind actually owning the game at a decent price.

1000$?

If I had a time machine I would go back and buy hundreds of Earthbounds. And they’re selling for $1000 now, but what will a new one sell for 10 years from now!?

I’d be rich! 🙂

I think nowadays unless you’re hardcore or are lucky and still have the game/SNES from the 90s, you’re stuck playing it on an emulator.

by doing that you will deprived people that could have made certain things online from happening like starman.net / etc

$1000?… Im sure not even the most devoted fan would pay that much for an earthbound cart…

I saw a cart for $2000… i’d still buy it if i had the money.

I really can’t see the appeal here, as an “ex-video game collector” anyway.

What’s the point of having a game if you’re not going to play it? And if you do play it, you just paid $1000 for a “now used” copy of Earthbound plus supporting materials.

If I take my used copy of EarthBound to Japan, get Itoi to breathe on it (and take pictures for proof), and then put it up for sale for $1500, would anybody buy it? 😉

What makes a repro different and or better than a original. It’s the same game but newer. Does it function any better?

$1000?! It’s more likely than you think.

@Poe: Psh, I’d pay $10,000 for that! Well… no, not really.

@Chritie if you want a earthbound so bad why don’t you just buy a original.
They are cheaper and arn’t different. I don’t see what the big deal is for repro’s

If your buying it are you going to open it?
Cause if you are, that would be a waste of money.
I would buy it, keep it for 50 years then sell it!
