I payed $70 for an N64 game called "NBA Hangtime". It is one of my least favorite games ever. Ironic, huh?

Umm... lemme see, the most I payed for a gema would be the standard $50... the most I payed for an old game would probably be Mega Man III for Game Boy, $25. The most for an NES game would be $10, for Mega Man III. Interesting, huh? I must really like Mega Man III. See, I got all me NES Mario games for less than $5. I got my NES like 4 years ago, ($10) and never had a system before, even though I wanted to. Then I got my GCN, most I've payed for a system, ($200), then an N64, the least I've payed for a system ($0).

Back in either late `96 or early `97, when Super Mario 64 and the N64 were the big new thing, it seemed like Super Mario RPG had been completely forgotten. I couldn't find it at any stores. Then, I finally found it at Sears. It cost $70 for it. That was dumb, especially since there were brand new N64 games selling for the normal $50.

Well, I think that would be Super Mario Advance, $56 and some cents.  I payed $50 for the SNES Yoshi's Island.  Very worth it, one of the best games!

Yes, I am American. I got mine at Wal-Mart at 12:01 AM on November 18th, 2001. Where did you get yours that you had to pay the price of those *other* systems? :-o
Mr. Master: Up there in Canada, working NESs must be more abundant. At used game stores here, they sell them for around $30! (American)... so, I consider my garage sale find a good deal... they were going to sell it for $20!

Everything is cheaper in Canada. Good exchange rate.
