My Sonic Wings, Sparkster, Knights of the Round, King of Dragons, and Super Aleste are not cheap games anymore :(.
Yeah, I noticed this trend last year for the imports. The general public has started figuring out the import scene for Super Famicom. Don't expect prices to go down.

Yep! And I thought I was being all smart and all getting the FC/SFC versions. Maybe a year or so ago....

Btw, how is Hagene? Fun game? It's a hack-n-slash 2D side scroller, yes?

It's too late. I bought two SNES games a couple of days ago, and they arrived yesterday.

Hagane might be the toughest sidescroller of the 16-bit era. Just brutal (in a good way)

$12.98 it cost me. Yes that is CIB.

SNES game #81 in the books (technically #83 if you include SFC as well).

Ah, Total Carnage. I have only played a little of it, and I'm complete rubbish at it, but it's fun.
