Wow, a limited print run that is actually what I would call limited? I don't consider games and things with 10,000+ copies all that limited. :roll:

this reminds of a seinfeld bit. he is talking about cars with 'limited' in their name. and he says something along of the lines, "how is it limited? is it limited to the number of cars we can sale?"

not that funny in text, however.

I dunno about games... but in about ten years it might be hard to find an Xbox 360 that still works! :lol:

There's a difference: Stadium Events is a game no one will buy to play. This one will and music game fans tend to be very rabid when it comes to their games, so there wil always be demand.

Remeber that DJMax is a niche game, not something you can easily substitute.

I don't think Electroplankton will be rare. It will not have a lot of demand and it got a nice marketing push when it was released so there must be a good deal of copies (Not that many but there are).

Ketsui Black Label is already expensive and it's a shump so it may keep its value.

Read the post again. There will only be a total of 6,000 games released. I think you accidentally thought there was an extra 0 on that 1,000.

ICO for sure.
I remember new copies selling for 14.99 at EBGAMES and the used ones for as low as 4.99
Now used copies go for 34.99 at EBGAMES.

Yeah, I got the 1,000 and 6,000. I was generalizing on 'limited edition' stuff. Most stuff that is hyped as 'Limited Edition' has 10,000 or more copies, often numbered. Either 1,000 or 6,000 is getting closer to what I'd personally consider LE.
