Think $60 is to pricey for a game?

[jaxxster]

What is/was wrong with guy?

Not much, that kinda money is fuck all to some people.

 

[Noobix]

Wow that guy got a real bargain!

Still wait a few years and some other rich idiot will probably pay ten times that amount.

It sure is a sad mad world.

Personally I would rather blow the money on women,(which is way more fun!!!), but each to his own!

Can you put a ROM onto an NES cartridge?

*Gets Gold Spray paint*

Still, Would never spend 17k on a game

Unless it turned into a genie and granted wishes :/

 

[yozyoz]

nice bargain, really!


but more seriously,

he should dump it

 

[elixirdream]

DQ9 is also around 60 USD but i am planning to get it! so is not pricey

however, back to topic! ... thats really pricey
i think i had read this somewhere
some NES games that was not published also cost around 10000k

I mean there's enthusiasm, and then there's this

Many people would say: 'Yeah, he's a true Gamer'

I'd say: 'Yeah he's some idiot that his head with a sledgehammer'

 

[ENDscape]

Imagine how much it would cost a few years from now

I still dont see why so many people think the guys got some sort of issue and hes an idiot. Like ive said before $17,500 isnt really that much money to alot of people. People dont go nuts when someone buys a peice of art and this isnt much different.

 

[Elritha]

I dunno... there's a difference between art and a plastic casing that is gold instead of the usual colour.

Art you can appreciate from an aesthetic point of view (well maybe not modern art but I won't go into that.)

This... you can look at, but I don't find it too pleasing to the eye. Maybe for bragging rights?

I'm sorry, but 17k is a LOT of money. to a LOT of people

I'm not sure if all of you simply don't understand or just acting dumb?!

Guy is obviously a collector, with enough money, it's his money, and collecting those games is his passion! I really don't see anything stupid about it, because it's not hurting me at all..
It deosn't matter is he's a "real gamer" or some idiot, he's a collector and buying this game surely DOESN'T make him an idiot, only true to his passion..

And tomorrow, he can sell it for more then he payed..

 

[soulfire]

i think it's cool to have something that only 20 people have in the world

ONLY 20 and you are one of them

that is pretty cool

 

[tal32123]

ultra rare, like i give a crap. now if it was a game from the future, then that might have been alright (not near future, i mean from the year 2,050 and up)

 

[Veho]

Maybe the guys that made the gold-plated Game Boy can make him a gold-plated NES to play this game on.
