Posted by substance J on September 18, 2022 at 00:33:40 EST in reply to So I've been casually looking around at neo geo pocket games in tokyo, and the prices are just astronomical. I kind of couldn't believe it. But now I'm looking at ebay prices and the prices I'm seeing here are maybe half of ebay? or 1/3? this platform sure did go bonkers at some point. Maybe I should finally buy Cotton while I'm out here. (n/t) from exodus.
I haven't checked eBay for games in years but back in January I was doing a bunch of selling (not games, still hoarding mine) and noticed Cotton was going for something like $1500. Allegedly, anyway. There were a couple completed auctions at that price. It made me feel kind of ill to see that. But it's also nice to know I'm apparently sitting on 50-100k in merchandise (pre-eBay fees) if I ever have to live off video game sales. I'm guessing you should probably buy Cotton. I paid something like $60 for Densha De Go! when I was in Japan and felt kind of guilty for spending that much. That was in 2013, almost 10 years ago - I wonder how dismayed I'll be if I ever get the chance to go back.
