  1. We should have respected the man and his powers of destroying things we like.
  2. Hey now, that was the ultimate in family cruising back when MC Hammer was still gainfully employed.
  3. Do we actually know that the sealed speculators have anything to do with rising CIB prices. I mean I collect almost exclusively NES CIB and I haven’t seen any crazy spike that I could reliably attribute to bleed over from this mania. The covid spike is very clear and accelerated what was already the ever increasing price of retro games. It’s not like we weren’t already on a path to stupid game prices since forever. I doubt anyone could point to anything other than maybe a bit of an increase in the rate of growth outside of hyperbole. I’m sure the influence is there but my CIB copy of whatever game isn’t suddenly worth bonkers money because of this.
  4. There sure does seem to be a lot of emotions on this topic. I’m sorry but I have a bit of a hard time understanding that as I can’t help but just see this all as some sideshow. I mean it’s sealed stuff. That was never like 9some % of us. Kind of feel sorry for the sealed collectors (the ones buying anyways) but not really. This all certainly is shady as hell and if it rises to the level of breaking the law there certainly should be repercussions. But personally to me this is just watching reality tv.
  5. Im gonna be honest. That shit was too long. Did not read. I’ll just let you fine upstanding citizens do the work for me.
  6. The more discs, the more special it felt. Final Fantasy VII had 3 discs. That’s awesome. Final Fantasy VIII had 4 discs. More awesome? i think back then the CG cut scenes were still new and awesome. So more discs meant more awesome cut scenes. How cool was that Junon Canon? Obviously Kojima or somebody ran the cut scene into the ground but once upon a time they were cool and special.
  7. New arrivals. Getting closer to re-completing my longbox set.
  8. I’ll have to add it to my if I see it cheap enough list. Had PS4 Berserk on it for a while before I snagged one. I found it entertaining in a mindless way.
  9. I had no idea there were games. I see there’s a PS4 game as well? Anyone know if that’s any good? I’m still entertained by mediocre games with licenses I’m into.
  10. I’ve completed both Castlevania and TMNT2 for a good price this summer. I was also after a copy of Kung Fu forever and after watching that price drift up and up I just snagged a solid condition one. Currently fawning over copies of Zelda 2.
