It can stay there for all I care. The Flintsones for Tetris was a good trade, and its final.

Please elaborate on this, I'm something of a gourmand of schadenfreude.

$5 says someone from NA picks it up and seals it in a plastic coffin known as VGA Grading.
Then proceeds to spew large amounts of semen.

I'm a bit surprised this came in a "retail" box to begin with, if it was rental-only.

Didn't we have an argument a while back where it was said this whole rental-only business was just hearsay?

Just extemporaneous nonsense, that's all. I just like the idea of such a valuable game as The Flintstones: Surprise at Dino Peak being traded to our former Cold War nemesis in exchange for Tetris, whose carts, despite being relatively nonvaluable (Tengen cart aside), have beyond question delivered way more fun to gamers than Taito's highly sought game. As a collector of video games, I enjoy the battle between monetary value and actual enjoyment of a video game being won by the later side; I also enjoy the absurd, which ties back into my initial comment.
Although I can't be certain, I don't imagine my explanation satisfied your hankering, Bratwurst. Would you care to elaborate on how you hoped to derive schadenfreude from my elaboration? Wait a minute... You didn't think that I originally owned the Flintstones game and then traded it for Tetris to the Russian eBayer, did you? @_@ The Tetris cart would have to have been sealed in a vat that also contained Alexey Pajitnov's brain for me to make that kinda swap.

Which Tetris?
A legit MD Tetris? Now that'd be a good deal.

Indeed.

When someone REALLY likes video games, enough to fraternize on a message board over them, you can never be too certain of their senses.*
*Self included in that equation.
