    Well my question is first wired or wireless? Wireless ones i've seen sell for +/- $50 a pop range (but that was over a year ago).

    Second question is if its wired, is it Japanese or US? The US ones are alot harder to come by boxed than the japanese ones. I've gotten sealed ones for about 20. That price still probably holds up.
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

    Well I don't actually have one, I plan on buying one and wanted to know how hard and expensive they are. I would like the wired ones for the US systems

    Does the Japanese cable work with US systems?

    The cable is a cable. That won't matter, its just if you want a US box or not. Now that I think about it, I might have an extra boxed US one. Let me see if I can find it.

    I would say $10 for a boxed one in good shape, maybe half that if loose. They are mid-range in rarity and not very sought after.

    Have to admit, took me bloody ages to find a boxed one. Are the wireless really that price now? Sheesh... I remember when you had a hard time selling them for half the price...

    yeah the wireless ones are kind of expensive...and i'd say a complete boxed us cable would cost around 20-25 max

    The wireless accessory isn't a regular link cable. Only a handful of Japanese games actually use it as support had to be programmed in separately from regular link cable support.
