    Default I never would have guessed ...

    ... that this game would be worth so much !!

    Of course, Super Mario Bros/Duck Hunt for $40 is just about as laughable, see the seller's other items. Not to mention the numerous typos.

    I was close to asking for the minute or so I wasted with this thread back, but this Rugal Sizzler-esque quote makes up for it:

    I liked his Game Genie booklet ad. Only $5 per game, that gets a little expensive if you want the whole book.

    Hahaha that's hilarious. What's even better is you can buy Top Gun, SMB, SMB/Duck Hunt, and Blades of Steel together for the same price as a Wii that someone is selling XD

    As of March 30 2008, 75.00 CAD = 73.3568 USD. (source)

    It'll be worth even more if some more of your big US banks tank.

    If said trend continues our market won't be the only one grossly affected.

    Back on topic: Is it just me or are there an awful lot of these "look at ____ common game I found listed for ______!!! OMG SUXORS!!" threads lately? Oh well, at least this one isn't clogging up Buying & Selling.

    This doesn't need to be in Classic Gaming.
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

    Oh I know it's the truth - actually the US will be fine once there's a long term adjustment towards more responsible credit. Interest only variable rate mortgages? what the hell is that? I imagine soon there will be higher requirements for lender capitalization like there is here in Canada and the situation is fixed.

    There should be one master thread for this type of thing. Maybe a thread called "What are they thinking?!?"
