It got me all kinds of excited. So I went to look for it online. Apparently the website no longer sells the cartridges directly. The cheapest copy on eBay was $150, and the cheapest copy on Amazon is $800!

Thanks a lot Game Informer for getting us the information 2 years too late for anyone to reasonably be able to afford it. :roll:
Ah bummer dude. Racketboy forums were pretty abuzz with it when it came out, sorry you missed out. Luckily though, if you have a 360, they're coming out with Pier Solar HD.

Their Kickstarter campaign advertised a Wii U port at the $200k mark (along with DVDs of their movie for $49 and up backers), and they got $231k and change.

Anyone know exactly why the front-loading toaster NES sucks so bad at reading cartridges? Other front-loading consoles don't develop the same problems.
