What's the Most You've Ever Paid for a Single Game?

[Bad Atom]

Back when I actually collected video games, I once spent $95 on a complete NES Bubble Bobble 2. That's when I knew I had to stop.

[Mathius]

I just plopped down $100 for a copy of Dracula X for the PC Engine. That's the most ever...so far.

I think it was around £80 for Gunstar Heroes on Saturn, but that was mainly due to me getting caught for import taxes

[MeTmKnice]

Most I have paid for a single game was probably SW:EP1 racer when it came out, like 60$
Not saying that if I find a cart that I truely have to have that it wont be more than that.

In recent memory, the special editions of metal gear solid 4 and street fighter 4 for ps3 cost me around $80.00.

As far as classic games go, I payed $80.00 to $100.00 for a complete copy of pulseman for the sega genesis.

[Azraelscross]

130 or so for Ar Tonelico with the artbook/cd and outer box. thats the most expensive so far

[Red Earth]

my most expensive so far is Sengoku 3 for Neo-Geo AES, with Samurai Shodown V right behind it. both for over $200.

I just shelled out $800 for a factory sealed Daytona Netlink. That's by far the most I have ever spent on a single game and it's highly unlikely I will pay that much for a game ever again. It was worth it though, it completed my U.S. Saturn collection and having it factory sealed is pretty insane.

125 € for a Captain Commando PAL complete and in very good condition

[EColeman24]

I would have to say it was around $85-$90 for Final Fantasy 5 Mind you I didn't understand the complete value of money then like I do now...I could weep.

Metal Slugs full kits MVS about $200-300 each
Radiant Silvergun ST-V about $100
Legend of Zelda preview E3 DS card - $150
Legend of Zelda - Phantom Hourglass DS demo card - $190

[tubeway]

$70 for Street Fighter II for SNES when it was released.
$65 for a copy of Super 3D Noah's Ark directly from Wisdom Tree.

That's about it. I usually stay a generation behind so I can scoop up cheap games. Looking forward to when Xbox 360 and PS3 are replaced by newer systems.

[SPAZ-12]

$65 USD for Odball for the Magnavox Odyssey.
~$60 CAD for Baseball for the XaviXPORT

None of my other games that I've bought in the last three or so years have come close to that. I've been slowing down my collecting, probably since I've become cheaper and cheaper as I run out of money.

Excluding brand new systems and games. This is only regarding stuff that you had to hunt for, either online or in the wild.

For me, it was just my Sega Saturn, which I paid $39.99 for. I don't think I've ever paid more than that for a classic item. All of my especially valuable stuff, I got bargains on.

Been a while since I posted. The most I ever paid for a classic game was $29.99 for a boxed Super Mario RPG, which happened last weekend.

Amazing find for so cheap!

[awbacon]

$200 for King of Fighters 2002 for Neo Geo AES

Most expensive non cart game was $80 for L.O.L (Lack of Love) for Dreamcast

[Nes]

$200 for Starfox Super Weekend.

[mikesides]

$352 for James 'Buster' Douglas CIB for the Sega Master System.

[BeaglePuss]

$352 for James 'Buster' Douglas CIB for the Sega Master System.

I sold my entire CIB SMS set for $700 shipped... Doh!

As for most on one game, I think it was $3,800 or so. Another sound investment as the game itself would likely sell for under $500 at open auction now.

[Sunnyvale]

I dropped $70 on Texas Chainsaw Massacre for the 2600. Most yet.
