Whats the most you have ever paid for a game?

Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

I recently bought the Japanese version of Panzer Dragoon Saga for $28. :)

Most I've ever spent on a game is $115 I think. Yup, it was Earthbound. Got it last summer.

Sad thing is, I had it CIB as a kid, and would still have it if it hadn't been stolen. :?

I think it was $70 for MvC 3 LE new. I wish that money wouldn't went towards something else :cry: Other than that, I don't tend to buy pricey games knowing there are good ones out cheaper.

I hear ya. I was actually purposely trying to save up $300 just to buy the US Panzer Dragoon Saga a few months ago. Ended up blowing that money on a Commodore 64 and Ps3 games instead. :lol:

The reason i love the saturn is because its a freaking arcade machine. If you were 80's- 90's kid this is the ultimate system to own. The Saturn seems to have the best ports of the greatest arcade hits with high level detailed of sprites large or small.

Before i modded it... i thought it was a mediocre console, but after i modded it and played games from various regions especially from jpn i realize this is a beast.

Just spent $70 on the Skyward Sword bundle. That's the priciest that I recall so far.

I also still haven't repurchased Earthbound yet. I can't believe it's going up again... :(

Hopefully it falls back down to about $100 soon enough. My cousin still has his cartridge that we used to play all the time back in the day, but I don't think he'd ever let it go.

Fiddlesticks.

Its been on this roller coaster like this for a few years.
Ya, I guess I shouldve waited. I sold 2 carts this summer for 80 or 90 each

$69.99 Skyward Sword bundle for me.

Runner-up would be Metroid Prime Trilogy for the Wii - paid $65ish I think for a near-mint copy.

Everything else was retail or a good price pre-owned.

System-wise I've paid out for an AES and a PCE Duo-R
