That is interesting. I was looking online for Castlevania 64. I have to check out to see if I actually own it or not. I definitely have Legacy of Darkness. But Castlevania 64 was a decent price at $14.00. In no way was it mint though. It was just the game, no box.
As a collector myself, I only keep the boxes on certain things. I still have the Ocarina of Time box, but it is missing the cart insert. The biggest problem with n64 carts in my finger acid ate many of the labels. My Ocarina of Time cart was well used. I should have bought 2.
NES stuff, I've been collecting for years. When the GBA nes edition came out I got the display from the store. I never did get that Gameboy though. I was going to ask wal-mart if they could give me the nes classic display insert, but it had a rip.
I want the NES classic, for several reasons. Mostly as a collector. A big factor is I no longer have my original NES box. The box it comes in is pretty sweet. I only have the boxes from n64 up. I'd open it and play it of course. It has a good selection, but I did buy all the NES Mario Games on virtual console right before this was announced. Some of the games I have on animal crossing. But isn't this a nice package?
The other factor is the jackasses buying 30 consoles and selling them for as much as xbox ones. I don't know if they have anything like that in Japan, but it's made a short supply even shorter. Hopefully, in December they will be available and I can get one. Also, as something made by Nintendo and as a Wii U owner, it's shocking to see something selling out. I'm used to being the weird guy who likes Nintendo. It makes me wonder about Switch. I had no problem getting Gamecube, but when Wii came out I was surprised of the popularity. With Wii U I waited a few months. I wonder how many gamers were exactly like me, and how this affected third party game sales projections. You never know with Nintendo what is going to be popular.
