    Default Mr. Driller for Dreamcast

    Why is the NTSC version of Mr. Driller so rare? There are none on eBay. I probably overpaid buying one on eBay. I seriously doubt it's an R4 like the rarity guide says. More like an R8.

    It may be scarce now online, but I used to see that game everywhere for $5. I bought a few for friends and family, and kept one for myself. Collectors may have gotten ahold of it lately, but I used to see at least 5 or 6 copies everytime I'd make the rounds at local stores in the mid-late 2000s. R4 is probably right for actual rarity absent of demand.

    The gameboy game used to be a $1-3 pick up for GBC and the paper didn't add much, and now it's more, nothing nasty but more. Like $15 for one without a fubar label. Now mind you that's what I was seeing for the last half of last year so I just didn't buy it, but I do see 2 CIB copies just went in January for $8 on one and $17.50 shipped on another back to back which is a pattern breaker I hope. I love that stupid GBC game more than the more advanced GBA titles, just didn't like the price tag. The average still appears to be like $15 for a nice game alone on there, and some greedy fools are asking upwards of $80 for an open box but perhaps never used copy (or such quality) so who knows.

    Perhaps Driller is asking for a come back.
