Post When You Receive A Sealed Game

> as well as both limited edition Steelbook tins for Soul Calibur IV (X360 and PS3)

Bah, good for you. I pre-ordered them direct from GAME online, and ended up getting a single regular-edition X360 copy and nothing else. /sourpuss

> I am surprised that RARE haven't reinvented Killer Instinct for the new generation - Or do Nintendo own the rights?

Sorta, Rare own everything about the game (code, characters designs, etc.) except for the name. "Killer Instinct" is still a Nintendo trademark. So, they'd either have to simply make it a spiritual sequel, or convince Nintendo to transfer the trademark (which would be very noticeable).

There are even bigger reasons why it won't happen (possibly ever), though, but I'm quite off-topic as it is.

> These are on eBay for the last year for 20$ no?

Yeah, I know what you mean; they sure used to be. I stopped paying attention; there seemed to be so many, I was convinced that they would never run out at any price.

Sorry but killer instinct SNES has been 20$ for years on eBay. Anyone who ever wanted one could easily get one.

+ the audio disc?

I never knew it came w/o an audio disc.

If there is a copy like that I would say it's very rare.

No - almost all of the copies come with the "Killer Kutz" CD

Almost? Are there any that came without that CD?

Probably not. Not sure why it was mentioned as rare.

Actually about 4 years ago i bought several Killer Instincts for 3$... all sealed.. Same for perfect dark. I saw bundles of NINE sealed PD for about 10$.

I was just pointing out that my numbers didn't fly out of no where. Someone paid more than I did for just the game.

hey no sweat at least yours was mint.

You buy sealed games from those big eBay retailers they send it to you in kitchen bag.

Every game I've bought from those retailers has come with some damage due to poor shipping.

Yea I bought it from a friend who collects just for the financial gain. I am very careful what I actually buy online.

hey if your friend has sealed snes games he wants to sell could you send him my want list? Been looking for some games for a long long time!

thats where i got mine

Yes, I got it from racaal2. I think most games from his shop are really overpriced (look at "sealed" Zelda MM). But he's a very good seller, got the games really fast (not like Wario Land 4 bballno1 :P ) and they are in perfect condition. And I think this two Zelda games aren't overpriced or not too much. Some days ago Oracle of Ages ended in an auction over 70£.

I looked at the two Zelda games for a very long time, because I had panic someone would buy them. After this auction which ended so high I was thinking intelligent people would buy his games. So did I

XD

rofl

let me guess: under 1200 GBP?

let me tell you this, if i said what i paid for it, Snesbits would probably have a heart-attack. But no, seriously, if it weren't for Jim.Jupiter bidding against me i would have got it for 40 euro. But because of our small bidding war, it got a bit more justified.

oh, so it is from ebay???



ah, Jim wants it also....

I will check ebay right now
