I'da sold it online and then bought a used copy. Just sayin'.
i would have done the same thing. he probably could have got a decent amount. he could have bought a used copy and then had left overs and bought some more games!!

i saw on ebay that a seller got a xbox360 limited edition game - i forget the game name - VGA graded and was selling it for like 2k. i'd eat my cock if somebody bought that.

i am all for sealed games, but at least have a loose copy to play, especially if you actually want to play the game.
if you took a shit, please put it back

Deathsmiles is freaking awesome... open it! Play it! You will be happy! Hell if it's really that limited and special, keep everything mint and it'll still be worth money!

You made the right choice, man.
I thought what I'd do was, I'd pretend I was one of those deaf-mutes.

listen, i've had sealed copies of shining force for game gear, final fantasy III for snes, and final fantasy VII for psone. i've opened all of them. i have no big regrets about that. i have maybe 3 or 4 sealed games right now but they're only sealed because i have more than enough games i need to play before cracking them open. but i'm sure i will, given the right amount of time. :)

glad you made the gamer's decision!

the only sealed games i have right now are

Bujingai: The Forsaken City (PS2)
Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmera (PS2)
Goiken Muyou: Anarchy in the Nippon (Saturn)
Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon (DS)
Front Mission (SFC)
Gunstar Super Heroes (GBA)

most of these i just haven't opened for the reason i listed above, just cause i have enough games to keep me busy, but i don't have a DS or a SFC at the moment. and i have a play copy of Gunstar, i keep that one sealed just cause, you know, i really like it :)
