    Default Bubble Bobble 2 and Earthbound Price Check

    What should I expect to pay for Bubble Bobble 2 (not Rainbow Island) and Earthbound complete and in pretty good condition?

    A CIB Bubble Bobble 2 NES should readily fetch upwards of $200 (I'd give $225 for one, myself) if it's in halfway decent shape. Complete Earthbounds usually hit $120-$160, depending mainly on the condition of the guide and especially the outer box.

    A copy of BB2 with the manual but no box just sold on eBay for $110, which I was amazed by, seeing as how cart only usually sells for $85-100. They both looked like they were in pretty good shape, too.

    The cart alone can easily be sold for $125. Then $50 each for box and manual. $225 seems pretty decent.
    Collecting the Bubble Bobble series, this includes Rainbow Islands, Parasol Stars and Puzzle Bobble. If you have anything for trade or sale please let me know.

    The last nice minty complete BB 2 that hit the market was Bronty's and hit over $400. I believe it ended at about $460? VERY rare box to find in good shape with no fading. A near mint box for BB2 is one of the rarest NES items to find. You can get a copy for probably $250 or so on ebay, but do not expect mint or near mint.

    That's...way too much money for a video game.

    I'm so mad at myself. When I had first seriously started collecting the local game store had Bubble Bobble 2 for $10. I told him that I thought it was kind of rare, he said yeah, but not really rare....

    So I bought Bubble Bobble 1 since I only had $5. Came back the next day with $10 to get it and it was gone.
