I am sure you saw the recent sale of Arceus for $4,500 right? I talked to the seller and buyer paid. HOLY CRAP. So I just confirmed myself what I was thinking before that there are dozens upon dozens of collectors now for distribution carts and listed Secret Egg a few days ago for $789 thinking there is no way it will sell and I started to get a ton of offers. Secret Egg used to go for $40 IN AUCTION. Around 9 people then messaged me asking for other distribution carts overwhelming me. I'm still stunned right now. Now I have realized I'll probably have to fork a ton of money for Dragonite or hope to trade Areceus for it. I know you are also only missing Dragonite still right?

Super sweet deal considering how much I was going to fetch for one. Plus locally too so who knows how much saved on shipping. I also got a Skyward Sword display, but have to put it together. Very challenging display to put together. Will share once I figure it out lol!

That's good you slowed down so I can catch up to you. I'm at 1073 JK. Either way INSANELY gorgeous collection. Those WOW displays are a gold mine making the game room perfect. Btw, curious on the lighting for your ceiling? Just LED strip? Look like the universe up there. Very neat setup.

This was one I've wanted for so many years. Love it so much.

WeEeEe to the top

Yeah I saw that too and was surprised seeing I do own a couple of extras myself I kept for trading. It definitely has to do with it being uncut and original. It seems like there are a lot more collectors for these carts now and with so many of those restored and unoriginal ones flooding the market, it makes it that harder to find it original. If you have kept track on Keldeo, even that one is going up and there are so many of those out there that I remember were going for $50. From my experience though, Secret Key is actually very rare to find it authentic. I have seen more Deoxys and Jirachi distributions than Secret Key. Most of the original ones are cut, but working. So the price is actually not surprising at all with what these carts are going for now. Plus collectors are not the ones buying the restored ones anyways. Let me tell you I am so glad I got some of those super rare ones like Shaymin and Arceus before this jump lol! I know Shaymin USA sold for around $1700 in a last auction so now it would probably be worth a lot more.

Anyone notice that there is an influx of Attack on Titan Final Battle (ESRB) brand new on eBay? Was there a reprint or it was just some warehouse find or something since some people have so many in stock. Either way finally got that game added to the collection! Only heavy hitter I was missing. Keeps going lower and lower in price new so hopefully that can drive preowned price down and give people a chance.

Probably some of you for sure are watching this already, but this seems like a big deal since I haven't seen so much popularity over a prototype like this one since I started collecting 2013. Over 500 watchers and $11k+ bid at time of this post. Now just curious on its history (description says it was suppose to be released with the Power Glove). Definitely a neat historic piece for sure even though it's not a playable prototype in terms of gameplay. https://web.archive.org/web/20221013143955/https://www.ebay.com/itm/134272604161

The Switch Kiosk would have been it not too long ago. Heavy MOFO. Just glad I have an elevator as I live on the 4th floor lol. Still, it had its challenges that I needed 1-2 other people to help get it in and out of the truck. Gonna suck when I have to move it later to my house as well as the other kiosks.

Just a few days ago, I remember seeing another digital only game come out to be physical and I told myself "still no Cuphead as usual". Well FINALLY, the longest wait for any Switch game for me besides whatever Metroid game is gonna happen. Really want to play this so bad, but yes I'm that stubborn I won't get it digital.

1,1,1,1 yay

Was gonna post the same thing. I tried to get the last auction with my bid at $5k thinking I had it and even that was not enough. Now I am kicking myself not getting it at $2k but that time I didn't have the money for it even at $1k. Ah well. Hoping one of these days I can get it somehow since I would love to have the N64 NFR set complete (still missing Super Smash Bros. as well though) Too many people are after it though.

Pokemon Legends so far. Really don't want to play any other Pokemon anymore unless it's this format now on.

At last, finally got the mystical PS5 that I always thought was a myth. Last Playstation was PS3 for me, so wanted to really try this one out. Thank you Amazon's invitation system. Now to find some must play games. Won't collect for PS5, just want to get games that are enjoyable to play like the Spider-man game was one I've wanted to play for some time now. The Horizon game that came with it is really awesome so far. If anyone is still looking for one for MSRP, Amazon is the way to go.

Finally got the translite so now I can share it fully displayed! Got this a few weeks ago. Was meant to be since pick-up was only 3 miles away.

Aww thank you! I sure will.

One of those NES games never got a chance to play. Definitely will try it this weekend on the Powerpak.

Death's Door retail available for preorder at Target. (who did not see this coming hehe) https://www.target.com/s?searchTerm=death's+door+switch&sortBy=relevance&category=5xtg5

Just sucks. So sorry you guys had a bad experience. I really don't understand what they are thinking with making this a store exclusive on such a buggy and flawed website that has no capabilities for such a demand. It was by some complete luck that mine had a button to finally click on to purchase after refreshing the cart over a zillion times.

Hooked on this new band recently found out. Favourite track so far (has a Amon Amarth vibe) ^_^

HAHAHA laughing so hard right now. Made my day dude.

If anyone is after Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Special Edition, it has been up for a bit. It took me over a hour to finally get one. That's how bad it is. At least the site did not crash this time. Good luck to you all. https://www.nintendo.com/store/products/xenoblade-chronicles-3-special-edition-114559-3/

Found Unravel Two in Walmart the other day for $15.88. Was sold out all Best Buys so to find it there was surprising.

Me so happy!

Lol this poll. Was so expecting on the result.
