We'll see about #241, though it will hopefully arrive today.
I respect your collecting of SNES games and wish i had #241 SNES games, im at #57 personally.

But i cant see myself ever going over 100, all the SNES games that i actually want are now around $100 or more, like:

Harvest Moon
Dracula X
Earthbound
Mega Man X2, and X3
Chrono Trigger
Final Fight Guy
Woah woah woah woah.

...since when is Chrono Trigger $100+?
It's not. He means Aero Fighters.

Yeah, Sonic Wings costs 1/10 of what Aero Fighters costs.

Get these from Japan for a major discount.
Why would i get a dialogue heavy rpg like chrono trigger in japanese, id take Final Fight Guy in japanese though since its just a beat em up.

Id also take Rockman X2 and X3 in SFC.

Thought I had removed Chrono Trigger from the list. My mistake. I really only meant MMX2, MMX3, and FFG (in addition to Sonic Wings and Hagane).

There actually a ton of great JP imports to get on the SNES. My first was Turtles in Time, and the amount of money I saved made me super happy to receive a Super Fami from s1mple just a little bit later. I'm now 24 strong (with a few Jp-exclusive RPGs that need to be translated) and couldn't be happier.

Admittedly, the most expensive SNES game ive purchased was E.V.O. for $60 with Manual, i found Aero Fighters and Hagane for less than $10.

But i would totally take any SFC game that doesnt need any japanese reading needed to enjoy.

mmmm..

You can get Chrono for around $60 or less if you're patient and diligent.

eh, i beat the DS version and wasnt too impressed, i dont have any nostalgia for it, i played Super Mario RPG, Secret of Mana, and Final Fantasy VI during those times as far as SNES RPG's go.

You'll save money if you do a JP BIN compared the US release, but you'll save way more money if you wait for an auction. They often don't reach half the price of BINs. That goes for most imports in general.

Dracula X or Rockman X2? also i try to find US sellers, but most SFC games i see for a decent price are also JP sellers, is it safe either way?
