Thank you sir.
And thanks to jaekwon for pointing me to the possibility of deals on Chronicles. Honestly, this rerelease stuff is good for everybody. It's kind of like how Chronicles was supposed to bring down the price of Dracula X68000.
Silly me, I went after that one before emulation was good but after it was no longer completely unknown in the collecting community...I don't think the original X68000 version will ever return to 2003 and prior levels, but it shouldn't be near the peak anymore. That one will always have some real rarity though, especially as the original hardware is hard to locate and import.
