That's kind of pricey, but if you really want it that bad, go for it I guess.

You have the game on virtual console for less than 1/4th the price.
I don't see why people see the need to get the actual cart when you can buy the exact same game with the exact same game play for less money, when it's legal (for anybody who was going to point out emulators and whatnot) , and it won't ever stop working like carts tend to do.

i don't understand how you don't understand the value and appreciation i have of the feel and even the smell of an old cartridge. just being able to hold something your hand and shove it into the system for the game to start up makes it infinitely more worth it than a download to me. There's a certain amount of accomplishment and nostalgia I get from owning a physical copy of any old game. Nothing tops having a real copy.

You're paying for the game, not the nostalgia. It's a stupid reason.

I raid yard sales for that stuff, I actually don't pay for it.

SNES = $5, with all cables
N64 = free, minus controllers
Super Metroid  = $2
Starfox 64 = $2
Genesis with a bunch of games = $15
Dreamcast with a bunch of games = $15

so, a bunch of games and consoles for less than $40! I did splurge $15 for Super Mario World, though.

When that's the case, go ahead and buy it.
I was more focusing my post toward people who buy old Nintendo games that are available on VC when they have a wii.

Cart only is about $20-30 at the most.

I don't even want to think of what it's worth complete.
