I wanted to know what others have had for experiences with ebay. Everytime I buy something the product always seems to differ slightly from the description. For example I just bought a supposedly new virtua cop for the sega saturn. It had the original box and stunner gun. The actual game was indeed sealed but the box had bends and creases and a fairly large brown stain on one corner. That to me doesn't constitute new. The game was sealed but I pretty sure it was pulled from a bundled system when the game had been included with the Saturn. I only say this because the case says "not for resale".
I'm 25 and like most of you grew up through the 8-bit Nintendo to the present day. I'm big into Christmas, which I think I get from my mom. She puts up 3 Christmas trees for all of her ornaments. Anyway I was thinking recently about my best Christmas gaming memory and why I have such fond memories of it. Here's what I came up with. It was 1995 and the Saturn and Playstation were still competitive. I liked the Saturn a bit more than PSX so I had a Sega Christmas. Sega pulled out all the stops in 1995. Here is what I got: Saturn system, Virtua Fighter 2, Sega Rally, World Series Baseball, and Virtua Cop w/ stunner gun. I was 14 at the time not making much money and it was one of the last Christmas' where I had to wait for new games to play. It made it that much more enjoyable. Let me know what you have for fav. memories.
I collect mostly RPG guides. I try and get them for games that I know will be rare and I feel like it compliments the game and makes it a complete package.
Just started playing King Of Fighters. The gameplay reminds me of the combo system in mortal kombat. Its a pretty decent game with tons of stuff to unlock. I just finished Xmen Legends 2 and can't wait for Marvel Ultimate Alliance.
Though I don't know about that specific rental game, historically the Blockbuster rental-only games have been worth picking up, especially Final Fight Guy. I wouldn't open that one until you know more about it, obviously, but it seems a little strange that it would be a sealed rental-only copy from a rental store. I would have expected it to be in active rotation, at least for a while, being that it's a fairly high-profile title
As for the sealed SOTN, you can find those on eBay from time to time; SOTN is a weird one in that its price fluctuates greatly, some people swear any copy is worth $45 at minimum and some find it for $15 regularly. If you're intent on selling it for as much as you can get, I'd set it up as a Buy-It-Now and wait for somebody who's willing to drop $100 on it. You might get lucky. gmsnpr
I do remember Final Fight Guy as a Blockbuster exclusive. The weird thing about this Wind waker is that it doesn't look any different than a regular version. It just happens to say rental use on the back.
I found a sealed copy of the The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker at Blockbuster video. It wasn't a greatest hit and on the the back in small print it said "for rental use only". Does anyone think this has any more value than a regular sealed non gh copy?
Also what is eveyones thoughts on a sealed Castlevania: Symphony (non gh). What do you gentleman think it is worth
