Re: When will SNES games start going down in price again?
I picked up most of my SNES games three or four years ago and am very happy with my collection, but I would still like to add Mega Man X3 and Dracula X to it...now if only I can find $500 laying around somewhere...

Re: When will SNES games start going down in price again?
Glad I already have 100+ SNES games, and many of the remaining ones I want are (cheaper) Super Famicom games. There's a couple of RPGs I'd like that will hurt my wallet, but I'm not to concerned.
Just wish I had started collecting a decade ago.

I wish I would've been able to start collecting then too....even though I would've only been 9 going on 10 but still...you only have a few that will hurt your wallet I have like 20-30 that will probably hurt my wallet unless I make sure to go to flea markets and goodwill(and the computer works store as well). Not to mention there's at least that many or more for other systems I need to recollect(I'm looking you my gb/c/a collection). Sadly most the games i need to recollect that aren't snes games are apparently rare/uncommon carts since most unless you are very careful can't be found for under $20 and that's just for the cart alone...and some of those have room to go up further with the time that's left...and I don't doubt it with the rest of the games...smrpg might be my easiest bet for the next game I get for the snes though since it's not one of the rare jrpg games we did or didn't get...

Same problem here but with about 5x that for every game combined that I need to get...possibly more....

Hadn't messed with it before but the gamesniper page over at VGPC.com seems pretty cool could set it to SNES and watch the new listing stream in.

Doesn't seem to stream much but then again this isn't exactly eBays peak hours either lol.
Just watched Super Godzilla(SNES) go unsold at $4.50 shipped so you could essentially find some SNES games on the cheap this way.

That thing is kinda funny, but it sure is a pain waiting for anything interesting to come up, especially if you're only interested in one or two games. I was looking at complete copies of Dracula X and saw a nice listing for $450... so, I can either pay rent this month or buy this
