Snes question's about buying games

[mjmjr25]

Yes, all of those - and...

Super Turrican 2, Harvest Moon, Aerofighters, EVO, Metal Warriors, etc...

And from a collector's standpoint: Super Copa, Super Noah's Ark, Starfox Weekend, Mountainbike Rally Speed Racer and others. All of these being over $100+

There are about 15-20 excellent games that EASILY top $50, another 10 games that top $50+ that you'd need from a collection standpoint.

And another 20-30 in that $30-50 range.

...and, we haven't mentioned imports. So...

All systems have their expensive games, though. Flintstones Surprise at Dino Peak costs more than all those games you just listed combined. Alien Soldier (Mega Drive) is listed at $300 on VGPC, and Mega Man Wily Wars at $200. Now, I'm not disagreeing that SNES is not cheap, but it's no more expensive than PS1 or Saturn, and is definitely cheaper than an AES. Heck, even the GameCube has some expensive games, like Pikmin 2.

Ugh... most of these "expensive" games can be purchased below original retail price. There are few exceptions but for the glory days of the SNES they are almost all worth it.

Buy and collect slowly so you can actually take time and play what you purchase. It'll make shelling out $20 ~ $100 for a cart that much more worth it.

Hagane, Wild Guns, Ninja Gaiden Trilogy, and Mega Man 7 definitely break $50. The rest are between $20 and $30 or so.

Apart from the first three I just mentioned, it's still a lot cheaper than buying new games for a current console, which many people here do, or many imports or PC Engine games, for example.

See that is what I was talking about. I know keeping this system is going to hurt my wallet and I do want castlevania dracula x bad but for right now I would rather just play the rom. I think I am going to just trade games in I never play on the wii and get the snes games I really want. After that I will buy 1 20-30$ game per month. This way here I get to actually play the thing and not just get it and do nothing else with it. But I keep thinking I'm wasting away money since I own a modded xbox and anything I want to play is right there.
