I hate to retread an old topic, but I just have to ask this.
When you take into account the rave reviews it got, the overall lack of RPGs on the GameCube, and the fact that it is apparently a good one (for a console RPG), and compound that with the fact that there are now people selling brand new copies on Amazon for as much as $150 (which would seem to indicate that there are misguided people willing to pay half again as much as a GameCube for it), why on earth would Sega discontinue production of "Skies of Arcadia: Legends," a game that is still less than a year old? At the very least you'd think they'd just mark it down to $19 or $29 so that gamers like me who are only marginally interested in it will buy it. But people still seem to want it (hence the outrageous resale prices.) But if that is the case, it couldn't have sold all that poorly. What's the deal here?
I sent emails to some of the jackasses selling it on Amazon telling them I'd happily pay them $29.99 for it, but that any more is ridiculous. I know - supply and demand and all that. But the fact that there is a demand at all means it should still be in production, don't you think?
And finally - is there anyone here willing to part with a copy of "Skies of Arcadia: Legends" for about $30?
