Nothing.  It's not even worth listing.  You might as well just have it sent to me so I can get rid of it for you.

I actually have a mint copy of Earthbound that I've never played (and won't any time soon, since it's back at my Mom's place which is 800 miles away in a different country).  I bought it at Wal-Mart a year or two after it came out for $15 or something ridiculous like that.

How much would it fetch on eBay?

Is it the one with the player's guide included? If so, then I may be willing to trade you my eternal soul.

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

Yes, it's the one with the player's guide included.  I'll take a poll of the group - is Kai's eternal soul worth it?

Not a chance.

I am however kinda worried that all the hype may ruin it a little...

A lot of the hype comes from the fact that it's an obscure Nintendo first party title that's quite good.  But it's not the best RPG on the SNES or anything like that.  I wouldn't even consider a GOTY candidate for the time it came out.  But it's still very good and well worth buying on the VC.

Pfffff, Chrono Trigger has nothing on Earthbound...Not even Super Mario RPG...

QFT

To me, the reason its such a good RPG is it doesnt feel like a traditional RPG even though it is. It's the same reason i like playing Mario RPG but since i played that after EB, I prefer EB more as a whole.

No but mine is.

EASYCURE: I remember thinking(don't ask me why) this was a blond haired, blue eyed, chiseled athlete. Like he looked like Seigfried before he became Nightmare.

For anyone who's interested, this article chronicles the Starmen.net community's struggles to get NOA's attention and NOA's perpetual indifference.
