I checked on both eBay and Amazon and the cheapest i found the game was 90 dollars.. IT RELEASED ON THE WII U FOR 20. guess people really love physical copies i guess.

Retro gaming in general is expensive as fuck. Mostly them eBay bastards that take advantage of the fact that nobody sells these items anymore. Just pirate it bro lol

Not to necropost, but I managed to snag a copy on a Black Friday sale early into the previous decade for, like, $40. Eventually, I think I sold it along with my Wii and some other stuff to help ascend into the PC Gaming Master Race in 2016!

I own the game digitally. I never knew it was that expensive. I'm trying to get my hands on mega man x3 and mega man 7 cartridges, but they're like $150 apiece.

Pssh. That's pussy numbers. Try the US copy of Mega Man 8 for Saturn! :rofl2:

Y'know Sega, a Saturn or Dreamcast classic would be kind of nice...I'd be happier with the latter than the former, or some combination of the two! ;)

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
