Well that's what happened over the last recent few years, they used to be $5 games up until maybe 4~ years ago when scalpers got into playing chicken with each other on prices. Stick with the famicom stuff and you'll find the prices still being in line with non-insanity in many cases. Why buy Bonk on NES for $350 when you can spend like $10-20 on the famicom version? ...and so on. A few aren't all that cheap though, like the $1000 Little Samson is still like $100 on Famicom, but clearly that's a far less nasty bite.pig_in_a_blanket wrote:Thanks everyone! I actually got started because I got a pile or Famicom games given to me, and it just started my sentimental sensors going (I didnt have a famicom ever, they just triggered my researching, etc...)
Im kind of shocked at the NES prices - I thought a copy of Mario 3 or Tyson's punch out would be 5$ - Since I imagine Hundreds of thousands were produced - But I plan to play the long patient game, and the trade game for a while - Fortunately some of the games I liked like RYGAR are still pretty cheap it seems!

Re: New member - Hello!
Always cool to see a new member be active. However there is a thread for this sort of thing:
http://www.racketboy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=210
You probably missed it though because this forum is way too fractured for its own good.
Have fun and play games.

Oh stop it. That thread is not hard to find and for every member who thinks there are too many sub-forums there is another member (or more) who make requests for new sub-forums.Exhuminator wrote:Always cool to see a new member be active. However there is a thread for this sort of thing:

I could point out how NeoGAF is the biggest gaming forum on the internet and they manage to do that with ONE gaming board. /v/ is the second biggest gaming forum on the internet and they manage to do that with ONE gaming board. But that's just crazy talk so I'll stop yeah.

The fact that you have to do that is indicative of a root structuring problem.Jmustang1968 wrote:Just use view active topics like most of us do.

And it isnt indicative of anything. Most forums have a latest discussions feature.
