Yes, another sign of the times here in retro video game land...

I don't own, nor have I even played Earthbound on the SNES, but I'd love to one day. However, with sellers like this that day won't come soon. :(

All of the prices are insane. $899 for the FF gameboy games? At least one is a re-issue. :-s

lol..with sooo many earthbounds on the bay at the same time, how ones can let peeps believe it's ultra rare and mega pricey?

Definitely NOT rare! Not as common as Chrono Trigger, but just barely.

Arkhan Asylum

I got earthbound for free.

this kid i know showed up with a copy and was like want to buy this? and im like 'no' and he goes 'well take it anyways'  and he ran off



i think it was stolen goods. 

oh well, free game!

Arkhan: +1
Other people: -1!
This "max-level forum psycho" (:lol:) destroyed TWO PC Engine groups in rage: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook "Because Chris 'Shadowland' Runyon!," then the other by Aaron Nanto "Because Le NightWolve!" Him and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together... Both times he blamed the Aarons in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner, never himself nor his deranged, destructive, toxic turbo troll gang!

Unfortunately, that's actually below the going rate for a complete Earthbound, as I've seen it over the past few months. Though his definition of "great condition" is a little skewed. And I wouldn't really trust the pictures anyway, check this out: http://stores.shop.ebay.com/sflaoaknyc-in-Game-Heaven__W0QQ_sidZ14462099?_nkw=snatcher&submit=Search. Read the descriptions carefully!

Mathius

Looks like some "lucky" future Snatcher owner's going to be pissed at the seller and himself for not reading that the game doesn't include the case OR manual like the picture shows. That's shady business right there. :evil:

Auction should read...

EARTHBOUND $150

Auction is actually for a Polaroid photo of the game
